Around
400 years ago, at the back of this 16th century building, a hotel
was set up in an inn that was called "'t Schomynckel", which
literally means "Beautiful Place".
Later, the contiguous houses, dating also from the 16th century,
were transformed in Neo-Renaissance style and integrated within the
hotel compound.
The porch ( the current
entrance), gave access to a patio with a well and stables.In 1908,
that patio was covered with a colorful, unique stained glass dome in
late Art Nouveau style.
Mainly after the second
World War, modernization and restoration works have been executed by
the family Marécaux, the last one started in 1993, so the hotel
added, as far as comfort is concerned, a real modern dimension to
its traditions.
Yesterday the hotel was a meeting place for the Bruges Beau Monde,
now it is a banqueting hall for the Bruges Society meetings,
celebrations, weddings and dinners.
All
through the year, the GRAND HOTEL DU SABLON offers you 36 spacious
rooms with bathroom, toilet, color television, and direct dial
telephone.
In the morning, a
breakfast buffet awaits you and the bar is at your disposal 24 hours
long.
Underground parking
spaces are available only 50 yards away.
