  • Charming interiors: Charming by name and by nature, Charme Hotel Hancelot exudes pared-back refinement at every turn.

Less fast-paced than its business-savvy neighbour Brussels, Ghent is the perfect city break spot for those seeking a more laid-back getaway.

You could spend hours ticking off it’s line-up of impressive buildings, from St. Bavo’s Cathedral to the Belfry and Cloth Hall or for further culture-based thrills, take a boat along the winding network of canals or visit the 12th-century Gravensteen castle - sure to delight history buffs. Don’t miss the chance to sample a flight of locally-brewed ale on a beer tasting tour.
