Pared-back convent sanctum
Black steel canopies give way to vaulted brick hallways, secluded gardens, and the contemplative calm of a former convent.
“Upon passing through the iconic matt-black steel canopy, guests are enveloped in the tranquillity envisioned by Van Duysen.”

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Wallpaper*.
No two rooms are quite alike, though they all blend historical architectural details and contemporary fixtures and furniture to delightfully novel effect.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Set in the car-free Green Quarter, the hotel sits a short walk from PAKT creative hub and Berchem station.
The rooms
Sage-green joinery and handwoven rugs furnish the former nuns' quarters, set under original timber eaves or soaring ceilings.
The natural pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A narrow outdoor swimming pond is filtered naturally by reeds and framed by whitewashed brick walls.
The spa
The dedicated townhouse spa contains a hammam, sauna, hot-stone loungers, and an outdoor shower on a sunken courtyard.
August Restaurant
Tables line the glass-roofed cloister corridors, looking out onto the walled gardens over seasonal plates.
August Bar & Lounge
Drinks are mixed under the soaring vaulted ceilings and textured glass of the consecrated former chapel.
How it began
Augustinian nuns once tended wounded soldiers across this five-building neoclassical hospital compound, before its 2019 renewal into a quiet retreat.
