Modernity meets history at a converted monastery near landmark attractions in the centre of Ghent - includes breakfast
- 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.

Location and what's nearby
Oude Houtlei 56, 9000 Gent, Belgium
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.
