4 Best Hotels in Liège, The Meuse and the Ardennes

A quiet air of calm hangs over this welcoming, family-run boutique hotel. Each laminate-floored room is slightly different, though all are decorated in bold black and white shades with only minimal color highlights. Some bathrooms have only showers, others only tubs, so be sure to state your preference. Rooms in front overlook Mosan-style residential rooftops, while those in the back have views onto gardens. Breakfast is available, though not inclusive of the room price, and can be ordered as room service.

In business in one form or other since 1850, this landmark property on a bright, busy street in the town center has smart contemporary furnishings and caters primarily to the modern-day needs of business travelers. Its friendly efficient staff, however, make it a cut above most train-station hotels. Most of Liège’s city center sights are within walking distance for most, any there are plenty of buses for the less mobile. The hotel's bar and brasserie has an extensive food menu served until 10 pm.

This property on the banks of the Meuse is housed in a 17th-century former convent, and the brick-vaulted ceilings in some public areas add a charming touch of antiquity to what is otherwise a businesslike chain hotel, with well-appointed if characterless rooms. Rooms at the front have river views, while the brasserie-style restaurant, which serves classic local dishes, has a terrace in an attractive leafy garden.

In the center of town, this modern, full-service hotel is near to all of Liège’s major sights. The rooms are spacious, contemporary, and comfortable, and the restaurant and lobby bar, full of bustle, are great places for people-watching. The (public) parking garage directly below the hotel couldn't be more handily located.
