As our series on singular events continues, allow us to introduce you to the charming city of Ghent, and our own little gem that is found there, the NH Gent Belfort hotel. Location is such a vital part of an event planner’s objectives, knowing the value not only of the session venue itself, but also an assessment of the surrounding area. This delicious part of Belgium offers the charisma, intrigue and beauty that will have prospective attendees clearing their schedule.
Situated in the heart of this serene city, your event is within easy walking distance from shopping adventures and traipses down by the canals. Delight in the 12th century medieval castle and the various examples of gothic-styled architecture around the city. The old fish market was renovated and often catches the eye of passing visitors, while ascending to the top of the Belfry tower is worth it to get the best vantage point overlooking the stunning cathedral of St Niklaas.
The tranquil nature of this location that tourists often comment contrasted with a vibrancy that captures the imagination no matter what time of day you are out and about.
The joys of Ghent are bountiful, and fortunately this continues into our prestigious venue. Meetings and events are tailored to your personal requirements, with 10 function rooms to be molded around the objectives of the occasion, with our in-house chef at your behest. And then, the pièce de résistance, our incredible medieval crypt, which provides a unique and intimate setting for dinners or cocktail parties.
To complete the experience, you are offered a tantalizing choice between classic and contemporary designed rooms where you’ll lay down your head at the end of the activities. You’ll also have full access to our gymnasium and sauna, and a team of professionals on hand 24/7 to cater your needs.
Ghent is a unique and welcoming location to host your next event, one that is unlikely to be your last in this Belgian port city.
