Parkhotel Kortrijk - Reviews - Kortrijk

UNIQUE BOUTIQUE & LIFESTYLE HOTEL WITH FAMOUS HISTORY (a living legend since 1398 !), IDEALLY SITUATED IN THE HISTORIC CITY CENTER OF TRENDY KORTRIJK (a mere 10 minutes drive from Lille & half hour from Bruges) RECOMMENDED BY THE FAMOUS 'Condé Nast Johansens' !!! The oldest document which contains a reference to the "Hotel Damier" dates from 1398. It says there that "The Scaek" is a hostelry, where travellers are given board and lodging. "The Scaek" is the Old Dutch name for the present-day French equival...(see more)ent "Damier". The name of the establishment has changed repeatedly down the years, in accordance with local history and the linguistic system. From the seventeenth century onwards we come across the name "The Daemberd" and, for the first time in 1795 (the so-called French period) the name "Hotel Damier". The façade has remained unchanged since the day it was built in 1769. With a magnificent rococo façade, the building is one of the finest architectural assets of the city of Kortrijk.
