Modernity meets history at a converted monastery near landmark attractions in the centre of Ghent - includes breakfast and an optional family room
-
Modern monastic-chic: Housed within the walls of a restored 19th-century monastery, Monasterium PoortAckere offers a truly unforgettable experience in the heart of Ghent. From well-preserved cloisters to its neo-Gothic chapel, the property is brimming with history and character, while cosy contemporary interiors are interspersed with charming original features and quirky nods to the hotel's past.
-
Bed down in style: Designed to blend seamlessly with their historic grounds, guest rooms here are sleek and modern in style, with all the offerings you’d expect from a luxury bolthole. Gorgeous warm and neutral hues, high ceilings and beautiful wood furnishings combine for an elegant yet laid-back atmosphere, while up-to-date amenities include a seating area, flat screen TV, spacious bathrooms and more.
-
Ample breakfasts: Follow the scent of oven-fresh rolls down to breakfast each morning, where a delicious buffet spread awaits with fresh fruit, healthy cereals, juices and more - just the ticket for fuelling up before long days out sightseeing. Take in serene views of the quiet courtyard, and later on, raise a glass to your adventures at the bar.
How to get there
Monasterium PoortAckere is located just outside Ghent's historic centre, about 10 minutes' drive from Gent-Sint-Pieters railway station. Ghent does not have its own airport, but Brussels Airport is just over an hour's drive away, while Eurostar travellers can switch to public transport once in Brussels and reach the hotel in about an hour.

Gent
The charming port city of Ghent makes for a lovely, authentic Belgian experience. Spend a day uncovering the secrets of the historic centre, whose medieval architectural highlights include the 10th-century Saint Bavo’s Cathedral, Gravensteen castle with its very own moat, and the 14th-century Het Belfort van Gent belfry. Elsewhere, culture vultures can admire the art collection at the Museum voor Schone Kunsten, or embark on an exciting beer-tasting tour. And if you're looking to spend a more laid-back afternoon, simply stroll along the beautiful riverfront, or go people-watching from a café on the scenic Grass and Corn Quays.
