The Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp is one of the most remarkable hotels in Belgium, a restored complex of historic buildings, including a former 14th-century hospital, gathered around the city's Botanical Garden in the heart of Antwerp. It is as much a culinary destination as a hotel, with a concentration of Michelin talent rare anywhere in the world.

The dining is extraordinary. Hertog Jan at Botanic holds two Michelin stars under Gert De Mangeleer; Fine Fleur holds a Michelin star under Jacob Jan Boerma and Thomas Diepersloot; Sanctus and Hidden Garden bring the cuisine of Yves Mattagne; Bar Bulot is a chic brasserie; and Afternoon at Botanic by pastry legend Roger van Damme and Henry's Bar complete the offering.

For a gastronomic Antwerp stay, the Botanic Sanctuary is unrivaled.
