Cobergher Hotel is a royal 4* hotel nestled along the lowered banks of the river Lys, in the medieval center of Kortrijk, Belgium. For us, it's without doubt one of the most beautiful hotels in Belgium: a true work of art. It's like being in a sumptuous old palace in an Agatha Christie mystery novel.

We advise you to book your stay at Cobergher Hotel via Booking.com, which often offers free cancellation. Send us a message on Instagram if you go, it would make us super happy.

But where does the hotel's name come from? Wenceslas Cobergher was the Dutch architect of the 16th-century Austrian royal couple Albert and Isabelle. A Renaissance genius, he was a painter, engraver, architect, engineer, numismatist and archaeologist.

On site, leave your car with the valet and admire the elegant exterior. It's often the friendly Chloé who greets you at reception. The team is one of the hotel's great strengths: a multitude of little attentions, great kindness, always smiling and an innate sense of welcome.

The interior decoration is particularly beautiful, giving the impression of being in an aristocratic town castle. Each room has its own color palette and unique look. It's luxurious but not pretentious.

There are 17 refined rooms to discover, including several suites. And there are also 9 apartments close to the main building, ideal for longer stays.

Depending on your choice, you'll enjoy the following amenities: king-size bedding, bathroom with bathtub and/or walk-in shower, breathtaking view of the Broel Towers, eclectic mix of design objects, balcony or terrace, air conditioning, espresso machine and Smart TV.

In the morning, enjoy a sumptuous à la carte and buffet breakfast (more like a brunch) in the dining room. Breakfast is served from 7:30 am. On the menu: a range of freshly baked breads, local specialties, exotic fruit juices, pastries, hot dishes prepared à la minute, champagne, fresh pata negra and poached eggs among others. Unparalleled luxury at an affordable price.

In the evening, the Bar Mémoir welcomes you for a confidential moment with your loved one. It's a meeting place for all those who appreciate top-of-the-range cocktails, exclusive wines and bar bites in a uniquely eclectic setting. Retire to one of the comfortable corners of the bar or take a drink in the imposing orangery. Time is suspended, confidences are exchanged and everything else is forgotten.

The hotel's wellness center is open daily from 8am to 10pm. It is accessible to hotel guests only. It features a traditional hammam, sauna, gym and a wide range of treatments. If you book a stay at the hotel, you'll get 2 hours free use of the wellness area. This is a private area, and you are the only person inside.

Cobergher Hotel is located in the historic center of Kortrijk, on the banks of the river Lys, in the shadow of the Broel towers. Lille is 30 minutes away and Brussels 1 hour. If the weather is fine, we recommend a stroll through the Kortrijk beguinage. This hidden gem, adjacent to the market square, is home to 41 whitewashed houses dating back to the 17th century. A true haven of peace!
