Belgium Hotels

Belgium Hotels
Belgium is a small monarchy surrounded by France, Holland, Germany and the English Channel. There is no national language; each area of Belgium uses the language of a neighbor nation (French, Dutch or German). English is very widely understood.

The Belgian landscape ranges from coastal lowlands in the west (Flanders) to the Ardennes mountains in the east. Rain wear is recommended throughout the golf season; the temperate climate is very similar to Great Britain's.

The Gran Hotel Mergelhof

The Gran Hotel Mergelhof overlooks the championship 18-hole golf course Mergelhof, designed by Bruno Steensels in 1997. A handicap of 45 is required during the week, and 34 on weekends and holidays.

A nine-hole, public, par-three course also is available on-site for short-game practice. Standard dress code applies for both courses.

The comfortable 10-suite hotel is above the clubhouse and offers an extensive buffet breakfast. All staff members speak English and are knowledgeable about local attractions and nearby cities.

Nicole and Francis Dernouchamps-Cawet converted an old post house on the banks of the picturesque Ourthe river into the charming Hostellerie Saint-Roch. The stylish lounges and guest rooms are decorated with flowers and period furniture. There are seven guest rooms and eight guest suites, with prices varying by season. Breakfast is included, and other meals are available by reservation, as well as outstanding wines and brandies. Dining on the riverside terrace is highly recommended.

The small old village of Comblain-la-Tour is known as the gateway to Liege and the Ardennes, and is home to the outstanding Five Nations Golf Club, designed by Gary Player in 1993.
