Luxury with a story - recognised by media and experts

An exceptional recognition for Cobergher Hotel. In September 2026, Cobergher Hotel was awarded Two MICHELIN Keys in the prestigious MICHELIN Guide, an international distinction recognising exceptional hotels and outstanding hospitality experiences.

The MICHELIN Guide highlights Cobergher Hotel for its unique combination of historic architecture and contemporary interiors. Behind the 16th-century Gothic façade of the former city palace lies a modern boutique hotel where classical elegance meets contemporary design.

With 17 rooms, a private wellness, afternoon tea and Bar Mémoir, Cobergher offers a complete experience where heritage, refinement and hospitality come together.

Two MICHELIN Keys are a special confirmation of our ambition: to create a stay that goes beyond luxury and offer guests an experience that stays with them long after their visit.

A special recognition for Cobergher Hotel. In March 2026, Cobergher Hotel officially joined the prestigious Flanders Heritage Venues network, a select network of unique conference and event venues located at historic heritage sites across Flanders and Brussels.

Joining this network follows an extensive quality audit by Visit Flanders, focusing on quality, sustainability and the vision of ‘Travel to Tomorrow’.

Cobergher Hotel stands out through its unique combination of historic heritage, contemporary comfort and refined hospitality. Its authentic architecture and historic details provide an elegant setting for stylish meetings, exclusive events and exceptional corporate gatherings.

This recognition confirms what Cobergher aims to represent: a place where heritage, contemporary comfort and sustainability reinforce one another, and where heritage is not simply preserved, but brought back to life.

Flanders Heritage Venue is therefore a valuable recognition of Cobergher Hotel’s unique identity and its role as an exceptional heritage and event venue in Kortrijk.

A story where grandeur and recognition converge. On this extraordinary day, Cobergher Hotel officially received the prestigious 5 star superior classification from the hands of CEO Peter De Wilde of Toerisme Vlaanderen. This exceptional distinction – the highest in Belgian hospitality – confirms what our guests already experience: an encounter where refinement and hospitality meet in a setting that knows scarcely any equal.

This recognition is more than a plaque – it is the crowning of a story in which craftsmen, colleagues and partners have worked for fourteen years towards a dream that became reality.

In the world of gastronomic refinement, Culinart Magazine finds its way to Cobergher Hotel. This publication recognises not only our culinary excellence, but especially the way we transform dining and accommodation into one sumptuous total experience. A story where every flavour, every dish and every moment of hospitality becomes part of a grander narrative of luxury and the art of welcoming.
