On our visit to Ypres, because there were 3 of us, we decided to stay in an apartment. What a wonderful choice! I researched it on the net and was not disappointed. It was large and spacious with all the modern ammenities and a 5minute walk to shops and Menin Gate. The owners/hosts, Roger and Annie picked us up at the train station and drove us to the apartment which was 100 yards down the road. Once inside, there was complimentary Belgium chocolates on the table and cold Belgian beer in the fridge!
The Post Office was a block away and also a wonderful bakery.
Also, inside the apartment was old World War 1 memorabilia.
It is well worth the stay instead of the usual B&B or hotel.
Thoroughly recommended
Also, whilest in Ypres, we did a Flanders Battlefield Tour which was excellent. The driver, Jack was a wonderful historian and this mini bus tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Europe.
Certainly not to be missed. more
