Verne Dreams offers uniquely decorated Boutique-style suites in the center of historic Gent only 1640 feet 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 1148 feet 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 in particular like the location – they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.

    Host Vincent was incredibly hospitable and went above and beyond, the in and rooms were gorgeous and decorated with much of his own work. You could truly feel the care and artistry put into his inn.

    Eclectic furnishing in an 18th century building a few blocks from St. Bavo’s Cathedral. Four very large rooms with natural light and all the necessities, though packaging varies from room to room. Note that “Berlin” is on the third floor and...

    Great experience, great room, great location...Vincent was exceptional and so rewarding to get to know. He took care of everything we needed to adjust/change on our trip and went over and above as a Host. We would stay here again anytime and...

    We self catered so this is not applicable. The room was spacious and the host was very pleasant. He was most helpful with regard to a parking spot and carrying our luggage upstairs. The property was quirky which we enjoy.

    We didn´t eat breakfast. The location was fine. The flat was very cosy but unusual.

    The owner Vincent is superb! He is really nice and support us all the way until we leave town. Big space and funky design for the room we stayed (Shanghai). There’s even outdoor jacuzzi only for us.

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.
