Antwerp Hotels--Banks or Diamonds and Pearls (it's really the name!)
Two hotels in the Old Town of Antwerp noted in a forum posting, without review, are the Banks and the Diamonds and Pearls. Has anyone on this forum actually stayed at these hotels and will provide an opinion or review?

I just see from your other post that you have booked Matelote. Don't know that either, but it's a great location and looks good.
For restaurants; I like Dock's Cafe, The Glorious, Hungry Henrietta.
The Zilte, on top of the MAS museum is fantastic but very expensive; it's more reasonable at lunchtime. And in the same area; Marcel is very good.
If you have time to visit the Art Nouveau district in Berchem (you should), then go to Euterpia.

For hotel reviews, check Tripadvisor.
Banks and Diamonds & Pearls aren't rated very high. Matelote gets 4.5 out of 5 points!
Some other very good restaurants in the Art Nouveau District (called Zurenborg) are Ardent and Mise En Place. It's a trendy neighbourhood with lots of outdoor cafés, lovely on a warm(ish) summer night!
