Wonderful place and host!

We stayed for 3 nights in the Rops room which has excellent views of the river and Citadel. The room is decorated with prints by the artist Felicien Rops (a rather controversial artist). The room and adjoining bathroom are comfortable, but what's amazing about this place is the attention to detail and extraordinary work done in restoring every space. And Muriel is a fabulous host who made us feel completely at home. She welcomed us with a local beer, saved us at the Citadel, and put out a delicious spread for breakfast. She provided us with excellent recommendations for places to drink, eat, and visit. We mentioned wanting to bike along the river and she had 2 rental bikes waiting for us! I can't wait to go back for another visit!!

Charm, elegance, and personality describe both the home and hostess of La Villa Balat. Perfect location along the river, close to explore the city center (which has spectacular restaurants and shopping) as well as the Citadel. Our hostess pointed us to some special places to enjoy. Thank you for a lovely stay!

En meget sjælden perle

Aldrig nogensinde har vi oplevet en så passioneret vært, med mageløs energi og stil. Huset er en oplevelse i sig selv og morgenmaden er i top top klasse. Hygiejne er i top, sengene findes ikke bedre, og parkering er muligt ganske tæt på i lukket garage .

Une résidence absolument charmante

Très agréable séjour, réservé sur un "coup de coeur" après avoir découvert précédemment la Villa Ballat lors d'une promenade sur "l'Enjambée". Service attentionné , petit déjeuner copieux et sur mesure. Situation idéale pour atteindre le centre ville historique, la citadelle et bien sûr les quais qui eux aussi valent la promenade.

お金持ちの家に潜入？

良くも悪くも家です。3部屋のみらしい。橋が横にあるので　家内は夜うるさかったと。当方気にならず。激大きなテラスがあって　そこで朝食。リクエストを事前に聞かれる故　焦らず頼める。あまりに家っぽく　部屋の消毒状況が見えないのは些か不安。石鹸しかないのも家っぽいと判断すべきか？駐車場があると解して前の道を進み　結局バックで戻り　最寄りのパーキングに停めました。結果　休みで無料で得したと言えば得したのですが　結構ドキドキしました。犬が可愛い❤️

Séjour romantique te confortable à Namur

Un accueil chaleureux et personnalisé. Pas d'intrusion dans notre vie privée et une grande liberté dans nos mouvements . Ce qui n'est pas toujours le cas dans un B&B. Beaucoup de gentille discrétion ne fait que magnifier ce charmant séjour : le décor tient ses promesse : romantique et bien préservé sans tomber dans le maniérisme. Le petit déjeuner est lui au delà des promesses .....
