This quiet, bijoux loft (65m2) is perfectly located; at 1’ from the 'Grote Markt', the City Hall, the Cathedral and the Scheldt river. You’ll be just a few steps away from great museums, art galleries, restaurants, bars, shops…

But be aware! There’s so much to explore —if only you manage to shut the door and leave your cosy nest behind. Can you?! ~;))

The space
‘Op Den Spieghel’ is a newly renovated, fully equipped rooftop aerie/loft with fantastic views out onto this beautiful city, often called the Manhattan of the 16th Century.

The building is secure and has a lift. Our small loft (65m2) includes a fully equipped kitchen, a dining/living area, a toilet, a bedroom with queen-sized boxspring bed (feather duvet) and en-suite bathroom with bath and shower.

The bedroom level has a small Dyson airco, so you can protect yourself from eventual urban soundscapes —In case you’re not used to the inner city-life (think about events like during a full moon e.g. ;)). Artworks of our (sometimes quite renown) friends and a Marshall audio system make it more then just exquisite.

Our apartment is an officially registered B&B; we belong to the 3% (!!) legally approved B&Bs in Belgium! In other words: All taxes, safety, security, hygiene, legality, etc. regulations are been taken care about. You (and we!) are absolutely safe!

‘Op Den Spieghel' is located in the very heart of historical Antwerp, next to the ‘Scheldt’, our river. Our loft is the ideal base camp for any kind of expedition, job, or adventure: Museums, art galleries, churches, cafés, coffee bars, restaurants, a great amount of authentic shops, and even an art-house cinema are all in the immediate neighbourhood.

—
Besides all these wealthy surroundings, our aerie is located in just a couple of steps away from a fantastic bakery store, some great butcher shops, an ultra-fresh fish seller, various vegan & vegetarian snack-bars and some ultra-polite mini-markets for last-moment-groceries. —Btw. Supermarkets, restaurants, take-aways and some of the best cafés in town are just one step further… all still within a 5 minutes walking distance.

—
Tip: Check ‘Susha’s Guidebook’ for an extended overview of our recommended restaurants, cafés, etc. (the results of 30 years very dedicated ‘research’…). They’re all within a convenient price range.

Btw. Apologises for the link 'Things to do in Brussels', provided by Airbnb... ;(((
After more the 20 attempts to change this, Airbnb still doesn't understand that Antwerp —with a population of 500k people living in the town-center— is the most populous city in Belgium. Its metropolitan area houses around 1,2 mio people, coming in second behind Brussels...

Even more: Antwerp is featured in the top 10 world cities to visit, according to The Lonely Planet, so... By now, you should really know! —;)))

Traveling around the world as ’sales representative' for Antwerp fashion designers, or as ‘buyer’ for interior designers, made me be quite demanding regarding the places I was staying. Finding a comfortable, elegant and very tidy stay at a perfect location has always been my main goal. When traveling for pleasure, I noticed I actually looked for the same kind of qualitative, stylish and —for sure!- authentic spots… Pleasure & business always seemed tightly connected :-))) Starting from my own travel experiences and the encounter with so many people with various cultural backgrounds made me of course very skilled for the hosting of guests from all over the world. For business travelers, but for sure as well for my beloved friends. So, if you are looking for a kind of specific spot that provides you an ease of living in the heart of Antwerp, don’t hesitate and contact me! CU soon?!
