HISTORIC CHARM IN THE HEART OF GHENT
Hotel Cour Saint Georges
In the heart of Ghent's historic city center, directly opposite City Hall, you'll find Hotel Cour Saint Georges. An intimate four-star boutique hotel where the energy of the city quickly gives way to a surprising sense of calm. Behind the characterful façades of two 18th-century townhouses awaits a world of historic details, contemporary design, and personal hospitality. The historic buildings have been fully renovated with respect for their original charm. Original features and the atmosphere of the townhouses create the setting for a modern stay, where comfort and character come together naturally. Each room and suite has its own distinctive style, making Cour Saint Georges an inviting base for a cultural city break, a business stay, or a relaxing weekend in Ghent. What makes the hotel special is its intimate scale. This is not a large city hotel, but a personal address where genuine attention can still be felt. From the warm welcome on arrival to the thoughtful details in your room and the peaceful breakfast each morning, the atmosphere is relaxed and sincere. Outside, Ghent is at your feet. The Belfry, Saint Bavo's Cathedral, Graslei, and Gravensteen Castle are all within walking distance. Inside, you'll find the peace and quiet to retreat from the city for a while. It is precisely this combination that makes Cour Saint Georges such a special place to stay in Ghent.
A PEACEFUL START TO THE DAY
BREAKFAST AT COUR SAINT GEORGES
Mornings at Cour Saint Georges begin without a rush. Every day, a generous breakfast buffet featuring fresh, high-quality products is served in the hotel's historic setting. Oven-fresh viennoiserie, artisanal cheeses, fresh fruit, and granola are complemented by warm breakfast classics and à la carte options. Breakfast is an important part of the stay experience. Not a quick coffee before heading into the city, but a quiet moment to start the day well. Take your time, make plans for exploring Ghent, and enjoy the hotel's relaxed atmosphere. When the weather is fine, mornings naturally move out onto the charming courtyard terrace. Hidden behind the historic façades, the bustle of the city center feels remarkably far away. Coffee in the sunshine, a leisurely breakfast, and then out into the city: exactly how a morning in Ghent should begin.
A HIDDEN RETREAT IN THE HEART OF THE CITY
BAR & COURTYARD TERRACE
After a day exploring Ghent, the intimate bar at Cour Saint Georges is a welcoming place to return to. The atmosphere is relaxed and personal, perfectly reflecting the character of the hotel. Stop by for a coffee, take your time over an aperitif, or end the evening quietly with a glass of wine. On sunny days, the courtyard terrace reveals itself as one of the hotel's best-kept secrets. Right in the historic city center, yet sheltered from the city's energy, it offers an unexpected sense of calm. This is a place where time seems to slow down and you experience Ghent from an entirely different perspective for a moment. The bar and terrace do not need to be grand to feel special. It is precisely their intimacy, historic surroundings, and personal atmosphere that make you want to stay just a little longer.
