1/3/2009 - Cities nearby Brussels

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 Antwerp hotel for example will bring you right in the heart of the city of Rubens, with lots of interesting things to see. A stay in a hotel in Antwerpen ensures you of a sparkling journey in a city full of un: city of fashion and diamonds, city of thousands of shops, of protected monuments and panoramic views, of movies, concerts and theatre, of hospitality and multiculturalism. A weekend away from home in a hotels Antwerpen is one of the best guarantees for a wonderful city trip! In a hotel Brugge you are also 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. The Hotel Walburg for example offers a very nice view over historical Bruges, truly one of the best  hotels Brugge I ever stayed at, although ofcourse the Hotel Azalea, in the heart of the city, is also an excellent hotel in Bruges. 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! Staying in that other famous student town, in a hotel Kortrijk is surprisingly fun as well. the best hotels Kortrijk are to be found in the city centre, or in the beautiful outskirts. Of all hotels Kortrijk I found the Hotel Broel especially good, it was a very luxurious hotel Kortrijk in the middle of the city so I would recommend it to anyone!
