The neo-gothic building which houses the luxury boutique hotel was designed by architect Louis Cloquet in 1898, and one of its beautiful features is the clock tower, where couples and lovers can spend a romantic night together.
-
The tower has been renovated to an octagonal duplex suite with panoramic 360-degree views of the surrounding. Apart from the clock tower, the intricate exterior of the building is studded with escutcheons and statutes.
1898 The Post Belgium has 37 rooms and suites, decorated in an elegant and welcoming style with sloped roofs or high ceilings, and antique furniture which complements the building’s ancient architecture.
The rooms are distributed on the two floors and are given titles that reflect the post-office theme such as an Envelope Room, a Letter Room, and Postcard Room.
The suites including the romantic octagonal Tower suite and the spectacular loft offers stunning views of the city. The rooms and suites feature free WIFI, king-size beds, modern technology, and other luxury amenities.
The Carriage Room brings to remembrance the horse-drawn carriages that were used in delivering the post when the Post Office was opened.
