The location is excellent. A very short walk to all the attractions of Brugge but slightly removed from the hustle and bustle of the busy centre. Our room was very quiet and the quality curtains blocked out light which was great for getting good quality sleep. The building is well fitted out, our bathroom was top quality and the quality of the toiletries was good. Friendly and welcoming host who made sure we were aware of all facilities available to us. A wonderful garden area at rear of property that would be very welcoming on warm days as it has large shady trees. The view from the room was a delight at night and day. A lovely canal with a flower covered bridge and delightful buildings with pretty window boxes and a variety of the local architecture. We stayed in the attic room. A huge room with ridiculous amount of space and great views. Huge bed with good quality mattress and linen. We checked in late at night and checked out early which was all very easy and hosts made sure we had access codes in time for our arrival. A wonderful stay - highly recommend.

Not a dislike - just to be aware the attic windows are very heavy to open. If you want to enjoy the view but not wanting to open heavy windows then best to select a different room.

The location was excellent for walking around Bruges and it's right on a canal. The host was very informative about sites to see in Bruges and good places to eat or shop for chocolates.

There was not a door between the bedroom and bathroom. A mirror in the bedroom reflected the bathroom so no privacy. The hot water heater was out in the evening and the next morning. The host called for repair but had no hot water during our stay.

Really characterful building in fabulous location - near enough to the Markt and Burg but far enough to be away from the crowds and to explore areas such as St Giles and St Anna’s. We had the canal suite with fantastic views out. The canal tourist boats pass in the day but we didn’t mind that and the soundproofing is really good with the windows closed. The canal is really tranquil early and late in the day - the swans return. One minor point - the toilet ‘room’ is separate from the rest of the bathroom area and so doesn’t have its own sink which could be an issue for some but you adapt. Lieve and Jan were wonderful hosts and nothing was too much trouble - we could also leave our luggage after checkout as we had a later train. We would definitely stay again!

Just the lack of sink in the toilet room and a couple of hooks on the back of the door would help with wet coats.

Well deserving of a glowing review B&B Anna 9 is in my opinion better described as a small boutique hotel. We loved it. Within easy walking distance of the historical centre in a quiet location beside a canal and renovated during the pandemic to a high standard in sympathy with the period features of the house. Our room in the attic was vast spotlessly clean with a huge and very comfortable bed a big bathroom with contemporary fixtures and fittings. A lovely bright airy space to wake up to and spend time in. For a coffee addict the Nespresso pod machine in the bedroom and the commercial easy to operate one in the dining room which made delicious coffee was especially welcome. The garden is a little oasis beautifully designed and well maintained a quiet place to relax in after pounding the cobbled pavements of Bruges. So thank you Lieve and Jan you made us feel very welcome and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend your "boutique hotel"

A truly private, peaceful, comfortable & luxurious experience at Anna9. Stayed in the top floor King Deluxe room which was huge by hotel/B&B standards with excellent quality fittings & amenities. Located on a canal, an easy 10 min walk into the main areas of Brugges, yet away from the hustle & bustle. Plenty of information provided to explore the city & area. Just to note: - the accommodation doesn't have a shower, just a large bath - wifi is a little patchy on the top floor These were not a huge issue for us but just for information..... We really enjoyed our 4 night stay at this high quality property & would book it again should we return to Brugges.

Nothing important.

We were attracted to Bruges after recently watching a replay of the 1959 film The Nun’s Story on YouTube. Set in Ghent, it was actually filmed in Bruges, and the opening scene features a canal-side house next to a bridge. So what was our delight, when checking into Lieve and Jan’s lovely B & B at Sint-Annarei 9, to discover that the building in question stands just a few yards up, at number 22. Audrey Hepburn is no longer there, of course. Instead, at number 9, there are the ever-smiling, ever-efficient and gracious Lieve, and her expert engineer husband Jan, who have restored the house to a very high standard. We had the Garden Attic, which is spacious and light, elegantly furnished, and so quiet it is hard to believe you are near the heart of an historic and lively city. The house is beautifully furnished throughout – antiques downstairs, modern fixtures and fittings in the bedrooms –and the breakfasts, which are optional, are generous and delicious. Sint-Annarei is the perfect location for exploring the town. Originally the Scottish quarter, it was subsequently a centre for small workshops, every one of which seems to have had an eye-catching and intricate brick façade. You can walk to central Bruges with its museums, galleries and restaurants in ten minutes; for lunch or dinner we especially recommend Brasserie Cambrinus at Philipstockstraat 19. More locally, do not neglect the Adornesdomein round the corner with its sixteenth century Jerusalem chapel, or the ethereal Church and convent of Our Lady of the Pottery with its attached museum, further up the canal. Altogether a delightful experience, especially for couples who appreciate kindness, interest, calm and charm.

We loved everything about Anna9. We stayed in Anna’s Attic which is a huge room tastefully decorated. The bed is comfortable and everything was spotless and clean. The air conditioner kept the attic at a nice temperature for sleeping. We loved sitting out in the quiet garden and taking a break from all the walking around town. The owners Jan and Lieve are welcoming and friendly. You can tell they enjoy running the bed and breakfast. We would stay here again next time we find ourselves in Bruges.

Our hosts could not have been kinder. The location on a canal is beautiful, and the attic room we stayed in is simply lovely - romantic, comfortable, and spacious, with gorgeous views. Off the beaten path, yet close to restaurants and attractions. Too many thoughtful touches to list! Classic contemporary interior with tastefully appointed antiques. Impeccably clean, of course! We did not opt for the breakfast (jet lag from the US so we tended to sleep late) but evidently it was delightful. Option to buy beer, cava, and other beverages to enjoy in the back garden, sitting room, etc. Restroom downstairs for guests. A place to store luggage before check-in or after check-out. When I asked for a fan, the hosts borrowed one from a neighbor to accomodate my request! They truly could not have been more welcoming and gracious. It was an absolute joy to stay at Anna B&B, highly recommended!!

53 steps to attic room! 19 to first floor, 20 more to second floor, then 14 to attic room. If you have mobility issues, be warned. No shower; however, the bathtub is deep, with a shower wand as one often sees in Europe. Boat tours on the canal come by often and can be a bit loud, but there is air conditioning in the rooms so you can close the windows if you prefer.

From the coordination prior to our arrival through to our departure, everything was superb. The property is gorgeous in a quiet area but close to everything. Our hosts were delightful. The honor bar was a nice touch and the lounge was decorated beautifully for Christmas. We were in the Tibo Suite which had a seating area, two fireplaces, two vanities, and a fabulous bathtub. The suite has four windows which open onto the canal. It was fun to watch the tour boats go by. Needless to say it was the perfect respite as we recovered from jet lag and explored Bruges. We stayed 3 nights. Would definitely stay again. Don’t miss Cafe Vlissinghe, just a few streets up, the oldest pub in Bruges.

With no enclosure, we seemed to splash a lot of water on the floor when showering.

This property is a spacious nicely renovated family home and the owners live on site. The accommodations are very comfortable and clean and within walking distance of all you might like to do in Bruges. Our room also had a very warm fireplace which was perfect for warming up and drying out on cold, rainy, December evenings. The host is also very kind and responsive should you need to contact prior to or during your stay. The cost was very reasonable - definitely worth a short little walk for the savings, kind host, and beautiful property.

Parking is a bit of a walk away - at least 7 minutes. Not a far walk unless you have a bunch of stuff and it's raining/snowing etc. We knew this coming in so it is not a knock at all - just something you should be aware of when planning. Not fun to shlep all your stuff in the rain. This is typically the case in older cities like Bruges, Strasbourg, FR and others. My best advice is to pack as light as possible (and we did) and know if you're visiting these types of locations, you will be dragging all of your stuff over many cobblestones.
