Small Boutique hotels in BELGIUM

Belgium is in Northwestern Europe, with access to the Atlantic Ocean through the North Sea which facilitates the flourishing commercial and cultural history of this country which started in the Middle Ages and has left an exceptional artistic legacy. The Flemish pictorial school is fascinating. And it is due to the fact that Belgian cities have been a hub of art trade since the fifteenth century. The economy of this small country is still today one of the most powerful in the West.

The cosmopolitan and multicultural Brussels, as well as being the headquarters of major political institutions such as the European Parliament, is currently a city devoted to contemporary art and the most avant-garde design, with a vibrant historical center.

A hundred kilometers away, Bruges, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the most seductive cities in Europe, with a unique and singular medieval atmosphere. Antwerp, the world capital of diamonds, is listed as the second most active European port. The regions of West Flanders and East Flanders display an extraordinary artistic heritage with pieces that range from flamboyant Gothic to masters of painting such as Brueghel, Van Eyck and Rubens.

No one should leave Belgium without tasting their delicious chocolate, said to be the best in the world. The design hotels of Brussels reflect each great creative moment. While those in stately homes in Bruges and the countryside capture the essence of their splendid past.
