Hotel Amigo

The Hotel Amigo is situated just a half-mile walk from the best antiques dealers in the and around the Place du Grand Sablon, a cobbled and gabled square. The 174-room converted 16th-century prison was designed by Olga Polizzi, in her traditional yet contemporary style. Here that means Flemish tapestries and embroidered velvets juxtaposed with Italian leather desks and headboards—plus fanciful all-Belgian art to leaven the mix: Magritte prints in the bedrooms and Hergé's Tintin in the bathrooms. Book one of the 6th-floor Deluxes with views of Town Hall, then head to the intimate martini bar for an extensive menu of whiskeys and cognacs.
