Bath & Barley - the Belgian Beer Spa - Bruges

“Wow, what a great experience we had at this beer spa. First impressions were great; the property is immaculately renovated and is very clean. It has a real luxury feel to it with added history. The spa we booked was the one bath luxury for one hour. The bath element was great and a real novelty, the bath easily fitted me and my wife inside. Beside the bath is a beer pump, iced water jug and two apples. The beer pump has unlimited use and is inclusive of the package - unsure how much beer one can drink before entering a sauna! The sauna is big enough for two laying or four sitting I'd say. Follow the sauna with the ice cold water bucket dropping over you, really takes your breath away but I felt amazing after. Another quick dip in the bath was followed by relaxing on the hay bed, a unique and surprisingly satisfying experience. The one hour felt plenty for me and my wife, I'd suggest a little longer if you are visiting with four people. Within your private, lockable luxury room you have a WC, double shower, basin and mirror area, sauna, two baths, hay bed and beer pump. All towels are provided, remember to take a plastic bag for your wet bathing suits if applicable. The staff were very friendly and informative, explained everything well and how to best use our time. Definitely recommend this experience, it's different to a usual spa and was notably more enjoyable than what I was expecting!”

“Great and unique experience, we came with our older son and had an amazing time. Everything was clean and serene, setting the perfect tone to start our baths. We enjoyed a beer while our son happily sipped water and munched on apples. The sauna was lovely, and both boys even tried the cold water bucket and loved it. We left feeling calm, refreshed, and ready for the evening. It’s such a fun experience to do before dinner, you can get ready on-site and head out feeling completely relaxed and zen.”

“Possibly one of the best places I've ever visited! What an experience. My wife and I visited in early April. We were politely greeted by Bram as we arrived and he took us through everything - the process, the benefits of the beer bath, etc. He was friendly, articulate, charming... everything! The experience itself was phenomenal. We had a quick shower and then relaxed for 90 minutes in our own beer tubs as we drank the delicious Estimet for out own tap. There's also a comfy straw bed if you wish to have a break from the hot tub. 5 minutes from the end of our session, the lights became brighter, and the water began to drain - a nice way of telling us that our session was close to and end. We finished with a beer in the reception area, chatting to Bram and Christop about everything, from wedding planning, to Star Trek, and everything in between! A great place ran by fantastic people. Visit if you get the chance.”
