Auberge du Pêcheur

If there would ever be a hotel horror movie made in Belgium 🇧🇪 and the director is looking for the main actor the hotel owner Brice would be the perfect fit for the main character:charming at the beggining ,aggresive,arrogant rude and verbally abusive towards his own paying costumers We booked the hotel for a room with a 8 months old baby 👶 boy informing them ahead on the booking .They forgot about it and gave us the noisiest room on the first floor Before you make your reservation pls note the walls are made of thin paper and you can hear absolutely everything from the other room .EVERYTHING The first night we slept next to an extremely noisy room it was a wedding party and they moved us to a different one which was beautiful and quiet.The reception lady said she will do her very best to keep us in that room because we had so much luggage + the baby . The next day she calls angrily saying that if we don’t leave the room before 2 pm because of another wheelchair person who is moving before 3 pm she will make sure my stuff is being removed from the room and threatened to put us our of the hotel Had to drive back with the baby alone and pack everything super fast because they want us to move AGAIN for the 2 nd time in 2 days to a different room where obviously they mentioned at the end we have to pay (we have 5 days left) At 2.10 pm the owner comes in a rage at the room and starts screaming in front of my baby:The roomie a mess,you finish packing now or we will throw all your stuff outside .He sees we are in distress with the baby and continues his verbal abuse pinpointing that I have a husband where is he to help? In my 14 years of a frequent hotelier I have never seen such an arrogant and violent behaviour. But then I remember I’m not in Dubai where he probably would have been taken accountable legally for his ruthless behaviour .Zero empathy & humanity but yes money greedy as he is moving us to another room but wants extra cash and does nothing for the inconvenience caused. Consequences:My baby who’s never heard a raised voice in 8 months since he is born started crying uncontrollably and vomited 🤮 2 times because of the distress and the negative energy The only star I give goes to the cleaning lady who has a golden heart and helped us remove everything from the room got emotional seing him crying and and tried to make him happy again. If the owner is so abusive towards the clients I cannot imagine what the staff has to put up with him on a daily basis . If you are looking for costumer service , empathy, human warmth & some level of curtoasy please 🙏🏽 forget about the auberge de Pêcheur because you will end up feeling sick and sad 🤢 just like me and my baby,while you are paying for it

Booked off Internet as an over night stop on way to the Tyrol. Brilliant choice. Comfortable warm room. Fantastic view over the marsh. Just the quiet honking of geese as overnight noise. Great restaurant with terrific evening meal and oodles of breakfast. Would very definitely stay again - and for a couple of days or more. Only concern would be they do weddings so maybe Saturday nights would be less peaceful.

What a lovely place to enjoy a few days in peace and quiet. The place itself is in a small quaint village with a restaurant on site but few other options available within 5 minutes walk. It sits on the river which makes it so romantic to have a drink in the evening or just enjoy your coffee in the morning...

What a wonderful location having been invited for a friends party we drove over and was stunned by Brugge and not expecting this to be bettered , Great place great food wonderful staff all was top class . Footnote I would not rent one of their day boats the guy renting the day boats amazingly rude to people returning the boat boat not sure if he was having a bad day but arguing with the customers and very rude to my wife who was enjoying a quiet champagne watching world go by , surprised he is associated to such a great venue not out of the food team stock that’s for sure 5star to all apart from boat rental 🥂💔 will return as soon as possible and stay in Latham area so much more to see I hope .

From the moment we arrived we were made to feel unwelcome - we had booked with our two dogs, after seeing the hotel advertised as pet friendly on ***********. We booked a month before our stay and added a note that we would be bringing the dogs. Plenty of time for the hotel to inform us dogs are no longer accepted..but no, on checking in we were made to feel we should be grateful for not being turned away (even though that'd be 40 euros extra in their pockets). I wish we had been turned away! The whole experience of our stay, especially dinner, was a catalogue of errors. Some forgiveable if it weren't for the atrocious dinner - Michelin star prices for food out of a packet. Service bizarre (different serving staff for each interaction), dire, dire food. The menu talks the talk but just downright unpleasant to eat. The room was ok, pretty shabby with barely functioning shower. While the outlook from the restaurant looks pretty, the river had a horrible stench on a warm day and was totally devoid of wildlife. Stay away!

We spent here 4 nights, and the quality of the stay was awful. Overpriced small room, in a crumbling building. Noisy stairs to reach the room located at the first floor in front of the mail building. The level of cleaning was very poor (even if they have the luxury to leave in your room their cleaning products…) as well as the furniture. 2 towels per night per 2 people, with a constant dropping heater in the bathroom. Super old hairdryer which stopped working after probably 2 minutes. The first 2 days they even didn’t clean up the tea cups… We had a 10 minute shower resulting in a flooded room. To note salty water is provided from the water system. To make the experience unforgettable we have also been awakened around 1am by a group of drunk people coming out from the restaurant and the day after at 6am by a tremendous noise of glass bottles: they were delivering water for the restaurant/hotel, having free access to the building were we where trying to sleep and rest. If you want to relax and pay for quality, please consider a different solution in this beautiful area.

I had a room with a view on the river Leye and that was very quiet. The rooms are relatvely small but pleasant. Breakfast was fine. I enjoyed my stay and would come again. The price was rather expensive.

I have been frequenting this establishments for 3 decades. This was the last time also as I am no longer welcome. The owner sees criticism as a declaration of war. The rooms are actually great, the restaurant to expensive for the quality and it looses out to most of the many competitors. As an individual guest you are trouble rather than a client. The focus is clearly on meetings, seminars and parties. Having said that the majority of the waiters and reception staff are kind and professional. However, its is the luck of the draw. The same goes for room cleaning and servicing with some not having a clue or give a damn and others courteous and caring. However the owner is arrogant, uncaring and prejudiced. A man in the wrong business. My wife and I stayed 2 months but were told to leave with the reason given that “ all the staff wanted us to go”. Strange since I have been tipping generously, gave presents of some value, books, paid consumptions for them. I am sure that does staffers neglecting their jobs and disrespecting the guests wanted us out but I am also sure we made some friends in these 2 months. Should you go. I would still say, yes. But don’t overstay your welcome

Business lunch that takes 2H15 minutes for 2 courses, champagne and coffee. We were six persons. Arrogant service and absolutely not flexible. At same time decent Food. We will not be back, as bad service spoils the experience. There are much better options in this region
