De Snippe enjoys a well-earned reputation as one of Bruges's finest restaurants. Its seafood dishes are particularly good. If you like crustaceans, try the delicious pot au feu... more...(stew) of lobster with basil and a sesame crust.
Advantages: Luxury Location Comfort Service Disadvantages: Cost
A Beautiful hotel in a perfect location; central and just minutes away from the main sqaure. The hotel overlooks a very pretty canal and we had de-luxe rooms with canal views. Sumptuous rooms, plenty of space and every possible extra. Delicious breakfasts. Very warm, friendly and informal service which you would not expect in a hotel of this calibre; we were made to feel very welcome and special. Expensive but very well worth it; if you are going to spend two or three days walking round one of the loveliest cities in northern Europe, why not have a gorgeous room to retire to. No restaurant, but several first class dineries within five minutes walk, and a very late bar at the hotel on a cosy room with fireplace. Faultless. ...
Advantages: quirky, friendly, good food Disadvantages: small rooms, no tea and coffee tray
I like something a little bit different and out of the ordinary. When looking for accommodation for a night in Bruges in Belgium I stumbled across De Barge ,which is a hotel in an old converted canal barge and immediately was drawn to it. It looked very cosy, quirky and more importantly was within our budget. My instincts were right. I am not a seasoned traveler and a night in a hotel is a bit of a treat for me so I wanted it to be fairly special. It seemed to have decent enough reviews on travel websites and a colleague had coincidentally recently spent a night at De Barge and really sang its praises saying it was ?the best hotel she had ever stayed at?. After this recommendation I immediately booked De Barge for one night midweek in late June. I booked our room, a double cruise cabin online using Booking.com, which was easy to use ...
Advantages: wonderful acting, good story and great scene variation, nice town also Disadvantages: the ending was predictable based on characterisation

this film was martin mcdonagh's first film, though he had previously made a short film called ?six shooter's? a few years earlier. i remember seeing six shooters on film four, and it would not surprise me to see this film one day on the same channel.
the structures of these two films are similar, the plots are known fairly quickly and the acting is really good. using trains and train platform scenes also took place in both films. the one thing i question is the originality of in bruges as crime and shooting films are nothing new.
set in bruges, a picturesque medieval town in Belgium. during the film we get to see the canals, the views ...
