Best Luxury Hotels in Elisabethbegijnhof-Papegaai

With its historic charm and colourful modern touches, this hotel perfectly takes all of the classic Marriot features and blends them into the historical setting. Guests are treated to views of the gently flowing Lys River from many of the hotel’s terraces and guestrooms and it is worth taking the time to select a room with a river view. There are several different onsite eateries to choose from and meat lovers will want to indulge in a meal at the Midtown Grill, which serves USDA certified steaks in an iconic 1930s setting. The riverside terrace is a great place to sit in the summer months while dining in style and sipping a glass or two of locally produced wine. The rooms that are located on the upper floor are especially enchanting as they come with hardwood floors, sloping ceilings with exposed beams and stunning views of the city.

Set in an opulent mansion that would make Louis XIV proud, Pillows Grand Hotel Reylof is a short stroll from many of Ghent’s most enchanting historic attractions. The attention to detail in this establishment is especially impressive and guests enter through the old carriage passage before climbing a spiral staircase to reach the large and decadent lobby. The spa and swimming pool are located in the old coach house, while there are palatial gardens to explore as well as a well-stocked bar that comes complete with a roaring fireplace. However, the guestrooms are extremely comfortable and boast plenty of modern touches such as air-conditioning and Nespresso coffee machines. There is just one Reylof Suite available, which boasts sixty square metres of space and a beautiful bathroom, while the unique Presidential Penthouse Suite features a spacious terrace for guests to unwind on as well as two bedrooms and a large fireplace in the comfortable living room.
