In Antwerp we stayed at the Rubenshof B&B, with its exquisite arte nouveau public rooms, fabulous breakfast and super helpful hosts!

The rooms themselves are quite plain but the public lounge is a perfect place to hang out and meet your fellow guests. I noticed that a number of single women in the lounge, and if I was travelling solo I most certainly stay here. The ceiling of the lounge has angels floating overhead. Many of the windows are original art nouveau. The excellent breakfast laid out on a buffet in the morning.The breakfast room.Part of our trip to Belgium, more or less following the beer route.
