About this apartment rental
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.
The apartment 'OLV' or 'Onze-Lieve-Vrouw' is located on the first floor, above the former coach house at the back of the garden of Twijnstraat 17 and with a view of Ridderstraat. It is a duplex apartment with the living area downstairs (dining and sitting area) and 3 bedrooms (2 queen-size beds and 2 single beds) and 3 bathrooms en suite (1 with bath/shower and 2 with walk-in showers).
There is a toilet on each floor. The separate kitchen contains all modern comforts: induction hob, dishwasher, fridge with freezer compartment, microwave and oven.
The 'vide' is typical in this apartment, which means that this apartment has a 6-meter high living room. It also has a special asset: a large terrace where visitors can enjoy the sun and have a beautiful view of the inner garden.

The proximity to the city center was perfect. The apartment was exactly as described and shown in the photos. The grounds are beautiful and serene. This was a very nice and quiet place to rest after long days walking and enjoying Bruges. The self-service bar and DVD rental is a ton of fun!

Our stay at De Drie Koningen was exceptional. Our apartment was huge, comfortable, very well furnished and the kitchen was fabulous. A real home away from home. We were there during a very cold winter snap and we were so warm and cosy that we even enjoyed staying in on the rainy days. Our hosts were exceptionally friendly and very responsive and helped us whenever we asked for things. The laundry was an added bonus that we really appreciated. We stayed for 8 nights and the whole family wished we could stay much longer. The location is fantastic and every detail in our accommodation was perfect. Thank you so much to our hosts, we are already planning our next visit!
