FAQs about hotels in Ostend

The Queen of the Belgian Sea-side Resorts

Located in the Flemish province of West Flanders, the city of Ostend (or Oostende) is the biggest on the Belgian coast. This cosmopolitan seaside resort has long sandy beaches, a modern harbour and magnificent fish restaurants.  

Built in September 1905 in the presence of King Leopold II, the imposing Roman Catholic Neo-Gothic church of Saint Peter and Saint Paul is the symbol of Oostende. Housed in a former department store built by Gaston Eysselinck, Ostend's Museum of Modern Art has an interesting collection of contemporary Belgian works.

The Oostende Railway Station is a gorgeous building between the Marina and the Vissers Kaai, featuring classical style architecture. Leaving the railway station you will find a stunning fishing market with numerous fish stands selling mussels, crabs and herrings.

Wander around the promenade and visit one of the traditional restaurants to enjoy Dover Sole, shrimp croquettes and tomatoes filled with shrimps. Booking.com has lots of hotels, apartments and holiday homes by the North Sea. 

Situated in a strategic position, the beautiful destination of Ostend is 1 hour away from Brussels and is accessible by train. The Ostend-Bruges International Airport serves a big variety of destinations, including regions on the Mediterranean Coast and Canary Islands.

    Ostend is a wonderful city.

    Ostend is a wonderful city. I lived here in the past and keep coming back. Some parts of Ostend feel and look not typical Belgian, you feel like you're being in south Europe instead of in Belgium.

    Nice places to visit in the city, plenty of restaurants and shops. Sea side is very good and well maintained, very clean. Easy to move around, Tram and train station, all usable with your bank card. Usually plenty of carpark places all over the city. We drove around from here to other city's like Bruge and Ghent and it was fast and it is amazing how they kept the speed limits quite high even in the city. Well done Belgium.

    Ostende was out of control on the 1. May Too many people everywhere, the traffic was saturated, police and ambulances driving forth and back. The days after, it was calm and you could profit from the stay.

    We had limited time in Ostend, but the beach was absolutely stunning and conveniently just a 10-minute walk from our accommodation. Its vast expanse and cleanliness made for a perfect, albeit brief, seaside escape. We’re already looking forward to returning for a longer visit!

    Great town for families, with lots of pedestrianised areas, little traffic, and lots of sandy beaches that are never busy. Cheaper than Knokke or Bruges, Ostend is also a perfect base for exploring Flanders, with everything within a short drive or train journey and nice beaches on your doorstep for the days you don't feel like exploring.

    My wife and I visited Ostend for the first time over 30 years ago with a group of travelers. It is one of those places that you just feel at home in. There are plenty of bars and restaurants however we have found our favorites and generally stick to those. Den Artiest is a place that has to be visited at least once in your life. For those that like chicken the Cluck Cluck (as we call it) cant be forgotten too. There used to be a wonderful quirky pub, the Cosey Corner, but that has been closed down. We took our kids there annually as they were growing up, now they are taking their partners.

    The location was excellent, just set back from the seafront and in the centre of town. Beautifully appointed apartment with lots of sleeping options and everything you could need in the kitchen, we wished we could have stayed longer. Oostend is lovely and we travelled to Bruges very simply on the train, great location.

    The view cannot be beaten. The location at the beach is great and also away from the crowds in Ostende. Ostende itself is only 5min away by Tram. Parking is easy and directions from the owner were easy to follow.
