5-Star Superior Events

The history of the Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp begins in 1238 when the Sint-Elisabeth hospital moved to the present site. Featuring its own green spaces and complemented by an almost 200-year-old Botanical Garden, the Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp is a verdant hideaway in the bustling city centre. The site’s history is palpable throughout the complex, and the refurbishment project has stripped away later ornamentation to reveal ancient stonework and structures. The ancient walls of a former monastery tell of a long history of community, sanctuary, healing and comfort.

This exceptional resort sets new standards in ambience, sustainable design and innovation, firmly placing Antwerp on the map as a destination for connoisseurs and foodies, business travellers, design devotees, spa aficionados and affluent shoppers. The Botanic is Antwerp’s first 5-star superior hotel and the city’s first member of Leading Hotels of the World. Imbued with a laid-back spirit, it is a destination with exceptional fine dining, honest Belgian cuisine, the ground-breaking Botanic Health Spa and Club, a superb conference hub, and an unparalleled wedding venue. It is a hotspot for celebrations and the ultimate in deluxe hospitality. But most of all, it is the Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp.
