Cobergher Hotel in Kortrijk Achieves Prestigious 5-Star Superior Rating

The newly opened Cobergher Hotel is now one of only five hotels in Flanders to receive the esteemed title from Tourism Flanders.
KORTRIJK – The Cobergher Hotel in Kortrijk has been awarded the distinguished 5-star superior rating by Tourism Flanders, marking its status as one of only five hotels in the region to hold this title.

Opened just a year ago, the property has quickly distinguished itself among Flanders' luxury accommodations.

The Cobergher Hotel is located in a meticulously renovated former Heritage House on Onze-Lieve-Vrouwestraat, set against the backdrop of Kortrijk’s medieval core.

The building showcases the historical architecture and grandeur reminiscent of an aristocratic city castle from the 17th century, creating a unique blend of luxury and history.

Constructed by the Verschetse family over the past decade, the hotel incorporates elements of design from renowned designers who have individually decorated each room and suite.

This approach ensures a diverse and elegant aesthetic for guests, fusing classic craftsmanship with modern comforts.

Stef Gits, spokesperson for Tourism Flanders, remarked on the swift achievement of this esteemed status, stating that reaching the 5-star superior level is akin to qualifying for the Champions League in football.

Currently, Flanders is home to four other hotels with the same rating, including Hotel Dukes Palace in Bruges and La Réserve Resort in Knokke-Heist, two of which are situated in West Flanders.

The hotel manager, Raphael Van Nevel, expressed pride in the recognition, emphasizing the initial commitment to providing excellent service.

He noted the positive impact this award may have on attracting business from the many national and international companies in Kortrijk, reassured by the quality offered.

The Cobergher Hotel is characterized by its comprehensive service offerings, including 24/7 room service, a continuously staffed reception, and valet parking.

Additional amenities such as a sewing and ironing service reflect the hotel’s attention to guest needs.

Adding to the hotel’s appeal is its scenic location near the historic Broel Towers and the banks of the Lys River, offering beautiful views and easy access to Kortrijk's cultural landmarks and vibrant city life.

This setting positions the Cobergher Hotel as a significant addition to the luxury accommodation options available in the region.
