About this property

Apartment St-Niklaas - 2 bedrooms - 1st floor

Already in the 14th century, 'De Drie Koningen' was one of the 'guest houses' where visitors could stay overnight. Since 1995 this tradition of hospitality can be found here again.

Today you will find 6 spacious and very comfortable holiday homes at this location, named 'De Drie Koningen'. They all have the same level of comfort with a spacious living room, fitted kitchen, 1 to 2 bathrooms with bath or walk-in shower, 1 to 4 bedrooms, etc ... They are spread over 3 buildings:

Twijnstraat 13: the building dates from the 14th century. The medieval aspect has unfortunately disappeared because it was thoroughly renovated in 1839 in the spirit of that time: a large mansion in neoclassical style. In 1997 the building was divided into 3 apartments: St-Donaas on the ground floor, St-Niklaas on the first floor and St-Jacob on the second floor. In 2002, the basement "De Vergulde Fontein" was completely excavated. The history of 'De Drie Koningen' came to light and one of the most beautiful 14th century cellars in Bruges was finally exposed. In this magnificent cellar you can attend now beer tastings, small events and Argentinian tango classes. From 2016 onwards, the apartments were once again renovated one by one in order to comply with the imposed safety regulations and the contemporary wishes of the visitors.

Twijnstraat 17: was originally part of a former notary's house from the 17th century in the Ridderstraat. At the beginning of the 20th century it became a private hospital with a doctor's practice until 1999. During the renovation in 2001 all outbuildings were demolished and a patio was created. This beautifully enclosed communal city garden (including a small swimming pool) gives access to 3 different apartments: "St-Jan" on the ground floor, "Onze-Lieve-Vrouw" above the former coach house and "Carmers" on the second floor. From 2017 onwards, the apartments were renovated for the last time.

A 'home away from home' for a pleasant holiday with friends or family.
This apartment is located on the first floor of Twijnstraat 13. The many niches in the walls bear witness to a rich history up to the 14th century.

After many renovations, it was redesigned for the last time in 2021 in a contemporary way with respect for the elements from the 19th century. The result may be seen: high ceilings, fireplace, spacious rooms, parquet in the living room. The whole radiates a lot of charm and the sunlight has every opportunity to penetrate.
The large living space contains a dining and sitting area. A separate fitted kitchen contains all modern comfort: induction hob, oven and microwave, dishwasher, fridge with freezer compartment, ... The bathroom meets the highest expectations with a bathtub and a walk-in shower.

Finally, there are 2 super cozy bedrooms (1 queen-size bed and 2 single beds).

What An Amazing Apartment!!!

Couldn’t rate this apartment more highly! Location perfect, cleanliness perfect, host perfect, access perfect, facilities perfect!!! It’s the little touches like amazing coffee maker, dishwasher, sundries (dishwasher tablets, foil, tea towels and rituals toiletries). Can’t fault it, booked parking space which included video instructions, nothing missing we loved it and would recommend!!! (Steep stair case not good for anyone with mobility issues).

Great place, great location!

The flat is located only a five minutes walk away from Belfort Tower and was absolutely perfect for our short trip to Bruges! I can only recommend staying there. We arrived a bit late, but that was no problem at all, as you get entry codes for the flat a few days befor your arrival. The coffee machine was ready to go for the next morning, which is absolutely not a matter of course. We have been very thankfull for that! The flat is clean, spacious and we did not miss anything during our stay. You can reach everything you want to see in Bruges within a few minutes walk. Parking was easy, too. The next car park is a short walk away. Indeed you drive longer from and to the car park than you walk, because of the many one-way streets. If you are lucky, you can grab a car park on the premises, which is a bit more expensive than the other car park, but safes you the walk. ;-)

Spectacular in every way!

I believe this is the very best short term rental in which we have stayed. Everything was amazing. The property is a good size, very clean, warm and inviting. Decorated nicely but not cluttered at all. There is a big comfortable couch and chair for plenty of seating to watch a movie. The kitchen had everything we needed and the greatest coffee maker. Tom the owner/manager created the best instruction and suggestion book I have ever seen. Comfy beds, plenty of storage. Such a perfect location to get to the heart of Bruges. It uses codes instead of keys which is great when traveling with multiple adults. That way people can come and go as they please without worrying about who has the key. But over and above all that, the other amenities were a huge shared garden space with a small pool. Perfect place for wine and cheese. We had the use of a washer dryer and an “honesty” bar. It was filled with tons of beer and other drinks. There is a huge selection of DVDs also. The best surprise was running into Tom and having him show us the basement of the property. It’s not for guests use but it has an amazing story he will have to share if you visit. It’s from hundreds of years ago. Absolutely fascinating to see this piece of history and I am so grateful that Tom shared it with us!! Our stay here made Bruges that much better. Thank you Tom! Honestly we wish our stay had been longer to enjoy more of the garden area.

Such a gem

Everything about this property is wonderful. The owners are delightful and extremely helpful. The property has been beautifully renovated and provides all the new electronics to make those digital and internet fiends happy. Restaurants close by are good and plentiful and having a wine cave at your disposal is a terrific touch. If, at any time in the future, I return to this lovely city I will be staying at this property.

Eine wirklich königliche Unterkunft

Wir haben als Familie mit 2 Kindern für 3 Nächte in der Wohnung St. Niklaas gewohnt. Sie ist wunderschön, ganz geräumig, sehr zentral gelegen und liebevoll und perfekt eingerichtet. Es fehlte uns an nichts. Nico hat seine Vermietung perfekt organisiert und informiert vor Reiseantritt über organisatorische Dinge und gibt Tipps für den Aufenthalt. Das ipad in der Wohnung ist natürlich großartig zum Informieren und vielleicht auch mal ein Spiel zu spielen. Nicos Bar bietet die Möglichkeit in Selbstbedienung eine grosse Auswahl an belgischen Bieren mit in die Wohnung zu nehmen, und das zum Selbstkostenpreis. Die tolle Stadt Brügge und diese wundervolle Wohnung können wir absolut empfehlen. Und mit ganz viel Glück wie wir es hatten, kann man sogar die belgische Königin und den König in Brügge sehen.

Lovely apartment!

Really fabulous place and so central to everything! Easy to get to when got off the train, 10 minutes bus ride from right outside the train station, and 5 minutes walk when we got off the bus. Everything was there for when we checked in, and the owner offered more information on top of what was provided in the iPad allocated to us if necessary. The pictures on the website really don't do the flat justice, it is much more than the pictures show you. Very spacious, very clean, well decorated. It is located at the end of a busy street, full of shops and resturants, but it's very quiet. We loved the apartment, and loved Bruges! So much to see, not enough time to see everything! Will definitely go back to both Bruges and one of the apartments! The only one thing that I would say about the apartment is, it is located on the first floor and you have to walk up a long spiral staircase. Although it is fairly wide, but steep, but still a bit tricky walking up, and especially down, with heavy cases for older folks like us (over 65!) as we are not used this it in UK! Without the cases it is totally fine.

Great apartment near center of Bruges

We stayed in St. Nicklaas apartment, a 2 bedroom, huge apartment. The furnishings were tastefully done: tapestries on the walls, niches with art work, comfortable furniture. It was located a 4 minute walk from Markt in old Bruges, excellent. Garage was a good add on for 10 euro a night. It was locked, on the same block as the apartment. Building is from 1370s but successfully updated to modern conveniences. One flight of spiral stairs to reach the apartment. It is walking distances to a supermarket. Farmer's Market is on Wednesday morning in the Markt---great food stuff and provisions. An ideal stay for Bruges. I recommend you contact www.haarlemgreeters.com for a free 3 hour walking tour of Haarlem by a volunteer local.

Surprisingly large

With a huge lounge/dining room, two good sized bedrooms, adequate kitchen and access to washing machine and dryer, this apartment was let down by the toilet and the spiral staircase. There doesn't seem to be a way to replace the spiral staircase but the toilet should have a small hand-basin! Location is excellent, close to the Markt square but access by taxi (as in much of Bruges) difficult because of one way system; walking is much easier.

Home away from home

Checkin instructions clear and made it quick which was ideal after we had ridden 60 miles in a torrential thunderstorm. Stayed in St Niklaus apartment which is much bigger than expected. The iPad is a great idea and allowed me to let Nico and Ann know we had arrived and also provided us much more info about Bruges. Central courtyard is stunning although due to weather we were sadly unable to use the pool. And has to be best honesty bar in the world. I have already recommended the apartments to friends and will definitely be back. Highly recommend Pitahaus (falafel, kebabs) food which is at the end of the street and also Beer and Ribs which we went to for my taller halfs birthday. A food extravaganza.

Large space, great location and good support.

The apartment was very big, clean with lots of equipment in the kitchen. It was 2 blocks from the central market and surrounded by restaurants. We had a bedroom on the main floor with a toilet on the same floor and a bathroom one floor up. The other bedrooms (2) had a toilet and bathroom on the upper floor. We never met the owners, but communicated by email and they always responded quickly and positively. We needed a parking place in their garage at the last minute for one night and thy graciously provided space. The washer and dryer in the garage was a great help as we were on our second week of travel. It was a very nice facility with all you could ask for by way of comfort.

Appartement très spacieux, moderne, idéalement situé en plein coeur de la ville, avec la possibilité de garer sa voiture et proposant plein de services dans un super état d'esprit (honesty bar, possibilité d'arriver et de partir à n'importe quel moment, ...) . Nous n'avons aucune critique à faire. Les propriétaires ont été, à tout moment, très disponibles et réactifs pour répondre à chacune de nos questions nous permettant de préparer au mieux ce séjour. Bref, nous sommes ravis et recommandons à tous cet endroit! Nous y retournerons sans la moindre hésitation.
