Not sure about B&B but I recommend the Hotel Ariane, stayed there a few years ago, lovely place.

Few miles outside of Ypres but I can highly recommend Talbot House in Poperinge. Authentic surroundings and a short train ride from Ypres, or bike in and out.

Varlet farm

Bed and Breakfast accommodation in Ypres: Varlet Farm
Went there as part of a tour, pretty central and family run.

Varlet Farm is very popular. Out of town but excellent.
Make sure you try the home made jam.

doesn't Banjotrooper run a B&B there?

 

[oldbaldy]

He's given up the B&B Poppy, too busy with both him & Mrs Banjo running tours.

Not actually in Ieper, but the Hooge Crater Hotel was very pleasant. [URL="http://www.greatwar.co.uk/places/ypres-salient-hotels.htm"[/URL] No 10.

Talbot House is great - the old Toc-H.

Also good is the Hotel Kasteelhof, close to Hooge. The pond in the garden is what's left of one of the mine craters. The frontline ran for a time through the grounds between the hotel and Belwaerde.

Second the comment on the Ariane. Comfortable rooms, good food and a pleasant bar. It's also only a short walk from the town centre.
