I have added some travel
information here for you because going to Belgium for treatment can
be daunting. Don't let the thought of travelling to Belgium put you
off though because there are many inexpensive flights, ferries, and
the Eurostar which all take you there. If you are worried about
making all these booking arrangements then
International Health Care will organise
all this for you without charging you a fortune for the service.
They have a fantastic package which takes all these worry factors
out of the equasion, even to the point where they will send a
representative with you for the week ! I have been to Brugge a
couple of times now and I have to warn you, many fall in love with
the place on their first visit. It truly is a spectacularly
beautiful city, with architecture that makes it uniquely quirky !
The sky line from the hospital across to the city of Brugge is
breath taking and I am besotted with the place. I hope the photo's
that I have added here do some justice to the beauty of the city,
and inspire you to go and explore when you get there !
The Hotel Acacia is my recommended hotel and I endorse
this having stayed there on each trip to Brugge. It is situated
right in the centre of the old city, and gives superb walking access
to the local shops and restaurants. It is a mere wander away from
the market square where you can sit and people watch, or enjoy a
meal at one of the Bistro's on the side of the square. You can
listen to the music playing out the quarter hourly time from the
Belfore, and this can be heard right across the city. The noises of
the horses hooves on the cobbles as the tourists are taken on a ride
about the town, the sparkle of the waterways reflecting the
buildings that surround them, the smells of the superb Belgian
waffles, or the beauty of the city as it prepares for it's next
festival or seasonal occasion, the place is thriving with life and
wonder and the Hotel Acacia is located so you are close enough to
enjoy it all without having to get a taxi to the town. The staff
there are warm and welcoming, and for bariatric patients offer extra
pillows, downstairs rooms, a variety of foods at breakfast time, and
a new service where they provide soup for bariatric patients on
request. The staff all speak excellent English. You will not be
disappointed with this hotel choice. |
