Van der Valk Hotel Verviers
Van der Valk Hotel Verviers is housed in a renovated 19th-century railway station in the heart of Verviers — a unique combination of industrial architecture and modern hotel comfort. The hotel is part of the Dutch Van der Valk chain and belongs to their premium 4-star segment in the Belgian-Walloon region.
The hotel has 100 rooms spread across several floors, including standard rooms, superior duplex rooms, junior suites, business suites and family rooms. A number of rooms are on the ground floor and adapted for wheelchair users — when booking, specifically ask for the accessible room with adapted bathroom. The lift provides access to all floors from the step-free main entrance.
The hotel offers a wellness and spa centre on the ground floor with massage and beauty treatments — this area is step-free accessible. The restaurant and bar are also on the ground floor. On-site parking with accessible-parking spaces is located right next to the main entrance.
A key asset for sports tourists: Verviers is less than 20 km from Spa-Francorchamps, the iconic Belgian F1 circuit. The hotel is therefore an excellent base for Grand Prix weekends, 24-hour races and the WEC. For cultural tourism, combine with a Spa city trip or a visit to the wider Eupen-Verviers area.
