Verne Dreams offers uniquely decorated Boutique-style suites in the centre of historic Gent only 500 metres from the Belfort. Verne Dreams is not a bed and breakfast like any other. Located at the entrance to the historic heart of Ghent, a stone's throw from Saint-Bavo Cathedral, it does not fail to surprise with its rooms dedicated to cities from around the world, arranged like in a dream, with its decor inviting escape and fantasy. Moreover, to the usual definition of bed and breakfast, its owners prefer the term Bed and Experience: a place that awakens the senses, nourishes the imagination and invites you to travel like in a Jules Verne novel. Verne Dreams is only 350 metres from the Saint Bavo Cathedral. The Alijn House and the Design Museum are within a 10-minute walk of the property. Bruges is less than 45 minutes’ drive away.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.

    It was quite an experience. My wife especially didn't like it, she LOVED it! :) The facility was like an AirBnb house rather than a hotel. It has some rooms, named after cities. (Berlin, Tokyo, etc.) Our room (or should I say appartment?) was...

Vincent Verschooris
B&B Verne Dreams provides elegant rooms in themes that Vincent Verschooris discovered around the world, all set in an 20th-century mansion. Each guest room or appartment is individually decorated, combining contemporary style with the more traditional features that characterise this building. Free Wi-Fi, Chromecast and other digital services are offered throughout the B&B by our digital natives. You can start your day with a healthy and nourishing breakfast served in the dining room (not included in price), and admire paintings by different artists throughout the whole building. The warm, personal service of this intimate guesthouse will add extra charm to your stay.
A fan of the Wabi that I try to express in my lifestyle and the interiors of Shelter7 and VerneDreams. I am a happy and positive person, always curious to meet new people and get in touch with new accommodations.
