My parents and I have just returned from a New Years Eve trip to Antwerp. We had a brilliant stay at the MAEK Hotel which is close to Antwerp Central Station. The location is perfect, the rooms are modern and comfortable, and the whole place has a relaxed, stylish vibe that makes you feel instantly at home. The breakfast was also 10/10. A special shout‑out to the receptionist, a young lad called Eecol, who genuinely made the stay even better. He was friendly, informative, and had a great sense of humour. He went out of his way to help with recommendations and local tips, all delivered with a bit of banter. My only complaint? He’s a Max Verstappen fan… but I suppose nobody’s perfect. All in all, a fantastic experience. We’ll definitely be back.
