Advice on budget, affordable and luxury accommodation in Antwerp
Budget accommodation in Antwerp
A cheap and central stay can be had at Den Heksenketel Hostel on Pelgrimsstraat, with mixed-sex rooms and good, clean facilities. It is near to a host of cafes, restaurants and bars, as well as welcoming travellers to its own well-stocked bar.
New International Youth Hotel Antwerp offers cheap rooms and a reassuring international flavour, combined with close location to a number of activities such as the zoo and Antwerp's decadent diamond district.
Affordable accommodation in Antwerp
Regarded as one of the city's best-kept secrets,
Hotel 't Sandt is decked out with character-heavy antique furniture, which adds a romantic and comforting charm that is all its own.
The spacious TOP Hotel Hylitt on De Keyserlei combines a great, central location near the city's Chinatown, though the quality of the hotel's rooftop hotel means you need never venture out for a bite to eat.
Luxury accommodation in Antwerp
The
Antwerp Hilton is surprisingly good value for money given its luxury pedigree, and trademark quality service, immaculate and well-furnished rooms, stunning exterior, as well as a location in the heart of the city's best shopping district make for a relaxing stay.
A luxury hotel that is slightly off the beaten path, but benefiting from peaceful and scenic surroundings, is the
Radisson SAS Park Lane Hotel. Accommodating staff and even more accommodating rooms combine with good value food and all the amenities such as gym and a pool that one would expect.
