Fijn verblijf, maar prijs kwaliteit verhouding is wat scheef.
Pros:

Het ontbijt is echt ZALIG. Zeer uitgebreide en verse opties, echt enorm van het buffet genoten. Hotel is mooi, maar erg groot waardoor je soms best een end moet lopen om in je kamer te komen. Ook vind ik de kamers niet echt fris, zou alweer best een kleine renovatie mogen gebruiken. Je ziet dat er veel in verbleven is.

Wij hadden geluk met de spa, het was rustig en dan is het heerlijk. Maar al snel ontstaat er een enorme wachtrij voor bedjes, dit doet eerlijk best pauper aan voor een hotel van dit statuur. Personeel is verder vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

De locatie is super, heel centraal in antwerpen!

Cons:

Kamers mogen schoner en netter > dit had niet perse met de schoonmaak kunsten van het personeel te maken, het voelt gewoon geleefd. Spa is top, maar beperkt plek. Prijs kwaliteit van het hotel voelt niet helemaal in balans.

Fijn verblijf, maar met ongemakken
Pros:

Locatie en comfort van de hotelkamer. Goed ontbijt.

Cons:

Het is praktisch onmogelijk om bij de aangesloten restaurants te dineren. Men heeft als selling point de culinaire beleving, maar die beleving komt niet omdat
de restaurants altijd vol zitten. Zelfs de hotelbar is te bezoeken nadat je op een wachtlijst staat. Advies: laat de hotelgasten als eerste gebruik maken van de faciliteiten. Verder is het ietwat te prijzig voor wat het hotel biedt.

A luxurious stay with outstanding service and a stunning upgrade that made our experience memorable
Pros:

The facilities at Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp are truly exceptional, everything feels luxurious, well-designed, and thoughtfully curated. The location is beautiful and peaceful, and the overall atmosphere is very refined. After our first night, when our room was a bit too warm, the team handled it perfectly: we were upgraded and received incredibly attentive service. Our new room was absolutely stunning, one of the most beautiful hotel rooms we’ve stayed in.

Cons:

The room temperature on the first night was slightly too warm, but this was resolved very quickly and professionally by the staff.
