The former main building of Eisden mine is rich in historical detail, yet the modern day visitor is more likely to notice the modern luxury comforts…
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Walking paths lead directly into Hoge Kempen National Park, with the boutiques of Maasmechelen Village situated right next door.
The rooms
Muted putty and dove-grey tones pair with polished chrome, subtle mirrors, and clean Art Deco geometric lines.
