Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp

We checked out Antwerp & stayed at the Botanic Sanctuary only for a couple of nights. As a swimmer an important feature when we stay at the best hotels is a pool. And the Botanic Sanctuary did not disappoint. Perfectly sublime 👌 The breakfast buffet was also a treat with a wide assortment of goodies to choose from. 😋 Making it unnecessary to order any other plates. Harry's Bar was very comfy with lots of cushy couches and swirly chairs with fluffy pillows. A great place to finalize your evening with after dinner drinks before retiring to your room. The rooms were romantic... we stayed in the Monastery rooms with high ceilings and original wood slat rustic ceilings. More comfy furnishings & fluffy pillows make it so relaxing. And the downy duvets & crisp linen bedding allowed for undisturbed sleep & deep dreams. Hoping your stay is a nice as ours was.... Enjoy!

This was a birthday treat and we’d traveled from London. The welcome/check-in experience was exceptional and the team warm and friendly. Our room (202) was ridiculously clean and perfectly maintained. Gorgeous bathroom, luxurious linens and towels. Lovely birthday treats in room. Loved the bar. The breakfast was top notch and then some. The only thing I didn’t like was the traipse from our room to the spa. Seeing anyone, let alone me, wander by the restaurants and bar, then through reception - all in a bathrobe - isn’t for the feint of heart! Undoubtedly a five-star experience nonetheless.

From the moment we arrived, the doors were opened for us, our suitcases were taken out of the car, and we could simply walk inside for check-in — it already felt like a celebration on its own. Inside, everything was decorated in a Christmas theme, which I loved, and the check-in was smooth with a glass of bubbles. For the rate, I found the room very small, although the bathroom was spacious, and I thought it was a pity that I couldn’t dim the large spotlights in the bedroom. On Friday evening, we enjoyed a lovely drink in Henry’s Bar, and on Saturday morning we had a wonderful and extensive breakfast. We were also allowed to leave the luggage in the room, and it was later collected and placed in our car. Excellent.

The property is both historic and beautiful created and maintained. We did not have time to appreciate their two Michelin Star restaurants but the breakfast will fit anyone's taste's and a wonderful start to the day. Above all, the staff it incredible and insures each guest has their best experience. We will definitely return.

Great place, been here for the second time and won’t be te last time! Great service, nice atmosphere. They made sure we had bottle of champagne on the room at arrival (for free) and the massage of Margot was outstanding. Also the breakfast is far over our expectations. <3

Our wedding weekend at the hotel was truly unforgettable, mostly thanks to the incredible support of Lorena and Pieter. From start to finish, they were exceptionally attentive, organized, and caring. They took care of every single detail with such professionalism and genuine warmth, not only for us but also for our 55 guests throughout the entire three days. Their dedication made everything run so smoothly, and we’re endlessly grateful for how beautifully they managed it all. We’d also love to thank Muhammed and Murat, who were by our side during those three days and helped all of our guests with incredible kindness and energy. Their constant support and the fact that they spoke Turkish made communication so easy and personal for everyone. They were always there whenever we needed something, literally running around with a smile and making sure every request was taken care of. Thank you all for making our wedding weekend so seamless, joyful, and absolutely unforgettable!

This hotel is a great place to stay. The setting is sumptuous and comforting. My junior suite (#209) was beautiful and well looked after by the staff. |I particularly recommend breakfast at the Botanic Sanctuary : the food is served through a menu and a buffet. Great quality and service in a beautiful wood paneled room. |Another recommandation : the spa which provided me with a soothing massage (195€) in a particularly serene atmosphere. |My only disappointment was having dinner at Henri's Bar (one of the four restaurants which are part of the Sanctuary) : the setting in the outside garden is nice but the food quality is just average and much too expensive for what it is worth. When I went there the service was mediocre. I would avoid it because it can spoil your stay.

Simply brilliant! Elegant, luxurious but not pretentious. This hotel is spread across lovely grounds and has a very nice and unique feel to it. The restaurants are extraordinary. Service was very good from the minute we arrived until we departed two days later. The breakfast room was beautiful and I had possibly the best Eggs Benedict I have ever eaten. It is in a great location and very central, yet it felt like its own little oasis.
