Boutique Hotel Maison Emile

This was a perfect place to stay in Antwerp for us (couple). Away from the main tourist ***** but loads of restaurants and sights to see. Easy to walk everywhere in the city and the tram is right there to get anywhere. We used the city bikes all over. Very nice room; clean/comfortable. Helpful, nice owners and delicious breakfast! Would stay again!

Modern, super clean with everything you could want in the room. Owner, Yanick was efficient and friendly. Couldn’t improve upon this hotel. Easy walk to some lovely eateries and the antique area.. about 20 mins walk to the old town which is stunning.

The positives of this place are that it’s a fine old building within an an easy and pleasant walk of the newly reopened Antwerp art gallery and the city centre. There ‘s a good choice of restaurants in the area. Our room was fresh and comfortable and the aircon was a key plus - if you left the windows open there would be traffic noise. However there were two negatives: (1) The Tripadvisor description of the hotel says it features ‘paid private parking on site’. This is not true and needs to be corrected. The hotel in fact recommended reserving a spot at a nearby garage, QPark, which involved pre-paying €20 per night for the two nights we were staying. However what the hotel should have explained to us, but didn’t, is that there’s a second more obvious paid-parking garage in the same immediate vicinity (APCOA). I wrongly assumed it must be the right place, left the car there for two nights, and on leaving discovered it was a different garage. So I had to pay €50 for this garage, meaning our parking bill for two nights was a very steep €90. The failure to anticipate this potential problem is poor management by the hotel. I explained what had happened on check-out. Other hotels would have offered an apology and a goodwill discount from the bill, but not this one. (2) The design of our hotel room followed the ******* modern architectural trend of no door between the bathroom and bedroom. Who on earth wants that? For this reason, even if the parking hadn’t been an issue, we wouldn’t return. We’d be genuinely interested, as I’m sure would be potential visitors to the hotel, in its justification of this bizarre design feature.

Charming boutique hotel in an interesting part of Antwerp. The breakfast buffet was well presented and tasty. The bedroom comfortable, well prepared and quiet. Good choice of restaurants in easy walking distance. 10 minute tram ride to city centre.

Cutest hotel ever. The people here were so nice. Check in was easy. We dropped our bags until our room was ready. We loved the location. There was a coffee place down the street and a bar that we loved that we went to both nights. It was easy to get the tram and we also ubered too. Just know there is no elevator. We were on the 4th floor - and my husband carried Two suitcase up. They did offer to help. The only other quirk was that our bathroom was tucked in a private area behind the bed - but there was no door - so whoever got up first and turned the light on woke up the other person. Would come back in a second. We loved it.

Absolutely perfect little hotel. Quiet, clean and good looking. Very cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Breakfast was great and the staff were really friendly. A great location for dinner and drinks as well. Everything seemed relatively new. Beds were really good!

Sweet little hotel. They had a nice breakfast. The guy was so nice, we weren’t able to eat the breakfast we paid for on the last day because of an early train and he let us pick from wine or soap products to make up for it

This is a gem of a hotel - immaculate and modern - with a very good continental breakfast. We were able to walk to all the main sites from the hotel. Yannick is a perfect host - helpful, humorous and efficient. A common response to our requests: “Of course.” We loved Antwerp and hope to return…and this is where we will stay.
