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.

    Stylish, comfortable spacious and clean apartment with fabulous views from the balcony in a great location near the beach and an amazing Supermarket, Del Haize . The host Ghislaine was so friendly, kind and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. We enjoyed Oostende, Bruges and Ghent whilst we stayed here. The apartment was excellent value for money and we had everything we needed. Highly recommended

    Location excellent. Have stayed in Ostend many times. Usually 4 times a year before Covid but in other accommodation. Room was everything I could ask for but appreciate my stay was out of season. Perhaps my requests may not be met in high season however would gladly return to the hotel.
