Cities closeby


Brussels might well be the biggest and most influential city in Belgium, the small country houses numerous other interesting cities where visitors can find many cultural, historical, architectural and gastronomical treasures. Cities like Bruges, Ghent and Antwerp each welcom millions of tourists each year and this obviously doesn't happen for no reason! Staying in a a hotel Brugge for example you are where you need to be if you like interesting and fascinating cities. Almost the entire historical city centre of Bruges has been put on the World Heritage List, so millions of people come each year to stay at least one night in a Bruges hotel. Many of these hotels Bruges are located along these age old cobbled streets and alleys, or along one of the many enchanting and world famous Bruges canals.


During my time in a hotel Gent, namely the Hotel Chamade I could here and there pick up some resemblances of Bruges, especially in the historical city centre (as beautiful as Bruges'). The quality of the Ghent hotels is also comparable to Bruges. The biggest difference of staying in a hotel Gent is perhaps that the city is a lot more modern and vibrant, mainly because of the presence of 30.000 students!



How about spending a weekend or longer in a hotel in Amsterdam, for example in a luxury hotel Amsterdam? Why not, the capital of the Netherlands is still what it was 30 years ago: a vibrant centre for everyone who considers themselves modern and trendy. Those who want to spend a little less money can always saty at a hotel Brussel or at a hotel Deventer, just like Brussels, a very beautiful and historical city!
