Hotel Matelote  

A boutique bolthole on Haarstraat in Antwerp’s Old Town — footsteps from the Grand Place, Antwerp Cathedral and the Scheldt. Stroll to the Fashion Museum, Rubens House, MAS and the riverside; Central Station is about 500 m and Antwerp Zoo is a short drive away.

Small and characterful with roughly 10–11 guest rooms tucked into a historic, pedestrian building. Rooms are air-conditioned and come with fridges, flat-screen TVs, safes and desks, plus private bathrooms with tubs or showers and complimentary toiletries. There’s no elevator in the historic building, but staff will happily assist with luggage.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi, a terrace with city views and concierge and tour assistance to help you explore Antwerp. Handy extras include express check-in/out, multilingual staff and daily housekeeping — perfect for quick city escapes and culture-first stays.

Daily buffet breakfast is served from 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM for a fee — a simple way to fuel up before museum runs and market strolls.
