About Hotels in Antwerp
Antwerp is one of Europe's most compelling cities, blending a world-class fashion scene, the magnificent Cathedral of Our Lady, a thriving port heritage, and some of the finest Flemish art in the world at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts. Whether you're here for the diamond quarter, a Royal Antwerp FC match at the Bosuil, or to explore the city's celebrated chocolate and beer culture, Antwerp consistently rewards its visitors.
From grand boutique hotels in the historic Eilandje waterfront district to stylish stays in the leafy residential streets of Zurenborg, Antwerp's accommodation scene suits every taste and budget. The city centre is eminently walkable, and the efficient tram and premetro network connects all major neighbourhoods with ease.
Where to Stay in Antwerp
Historisch Centrum
The heart of Antwerp and the ideal base for first-time visitors. Steps from the Grote Markt, the Cathedral of Our Lady, and the Meir shopping street — central, lively, and supremely convenient.
Eilandje
Antwerp's upscale waterfront quarter, home to the MAS museum and redesigned docklands. Expect sleek design hotels and a polished, contemporary atmosphere with easy access to the city centre.
Zuid
The creative and bohemian neighbourhood of Antwerp, filled with independent galleries, design studios, and buzzing café terraces. A favourite among artists and those seeking a stylish, characterful stay.
Zurenborg
A quieter, residential area celebrated for its stunning Art Nouveau architecture. Excellent value for money, peaceful streets, and well connected to the centre by tram in under ten minutes.
Airport and Transport Guide
Antwerp is served by Brussels Airport (BRU), located approximately 45 kilometres from the city centre and offering direct connections to over 100 destinations worldwide. Regular direct trains on the Airport Express depart every 15 minutes and reach Antwerp-Centraal station in around 35 minutes. For late arrivals, De Lijn coach services provide an overnight connection to the city.
Within Antwerp, the De Lijn network of trams and buses covers the city comprehensively, with the pre-metro tunnels offering fast links across the centre. A Lijnpas day ticket or multi-day card offers the best value for visitors exploring widely. Taxis in Antwerp charge a base fare of around €2.50 plus €2.00–€2.50 per kilometre; a journey from Centraal to the Old Town typically costs €8–€12. Uber operates in Antwerp, though availability can be limited compared to larger European capitals.
Tips for Finding the Best Hotel Deal in Antwerp
- Book at least 6–8 weeks ahead for stays during Antwerp Pride in August and the Antwerp Diamond Gala, when hotels across the city fill rapidly.
- Staying in Berchem or Borgerhout offers noticeably lower nightly rates than the historic centre, both with easy tram and pre-metro connections.
- Look for hotels that include breakfast — Antwerp's many specialist coffee bars are wonderful, but a solid hotel breakfast saves time and daily spend.
- Choose free cancellation rates where your dates are flexible — demand around Belgian public holidays and Flanders festival weekends shifts quickly.
- Midweek stays from Tuesday to Thursday are reliably cheaper in Antwerp, as the city draws strong leisure and weekend city-break demand year-round.
- Enrol in loyalty programmes before booking — Radisson and Marriott both have a solid Antwerp presence and regularly offer member-rate discounts.
When to Visit Antwerp for Lower Prices
Winter (Low Season)
November to February brings cold, often grey days and the lowest hotel prices of the year. Antwerp's atmospheric Christmas market around the Grote Markt adds seasonal charm. Expect mid-range rates from around £70–£110 per night at this time.
Spring (Value Season)
March to May offers mild temperatures, blooming parks, and a city reawakening after winter. Prices remain below summer peaks while the cultural calendar fills with events, making it an excellent time to visit for value-conscious travellers.
Summer (High Season)
June to August is Antwerp's busiest period, driven by warm weather, outdoor festivals, and Antwerp Pride in August. Hotel prices peak across the city, and popular properties sell out weeks in advance. Book early to secure the best rates.
Autumn (Value Season)
September and October bring cooler days, reduced crowds, and hotel rates easing from their summer highs. The fashion and design scene is particularly active during this period, and the city feels relaxed and genuinely enjoyable without midsummer pressure.
Popular Areas to Stay in Antwerp
Grote Markt & Old Town
Antwerp's historic core, steps from the Cathedral of Our Lady and the Rubenshuis. Ideal for first-timers, though central demand keeps hotel rates at a premium year-round.
Zuid (South Antwerp)
A gallery-lined, café-rich quarter beloved by creatives and locals. The Museum of Fine Arts (KMSKA) anchors the area, offering a stylish, less touristy alternative to the Old Town.
't Eilandje (The Island District)
Antwerp's regenerated docklands district, home to the MAS museum and upscale waterfront hotels. Popular with design-conscious travellers seeking contemporary surroundings away from the historic centre.
Antwerp-Berchem & Statiebuurt
The city's principal business district, clustered around Berchem station with swift rail access to Brussels. Well-stocked with corporate hotels and considerably quieter pricing than the central Old Town.
