Hotels in Flanders, Belgium

Flanders is a region in northern Belgium with a temperate climate, where summers stay around 70°F (21°C) and winters hover near 40°F (4°C). It's famous for its medieval cities like Bruges and Ghent, where you can climb the Belfry tower or explore the Gravensteen castle, and for its thriving craft beer scene with over 1,500 varieties. In summer, cycle along the canals of Bruges or catch live jazz at the Gentse Feesten festival in July; in winter, warm up in Antwerp's chocolate shops or skate at the Christmas market on the Grote Markt. The coast offers sandy beaches at Ostend for windsurfing in spring, while inland, the Mechelen brewery tours are a year-round must.
