In a small village in Belgium, in the province of Luxembourg, in the heart of the forests of Saint-Hubert, you will find Mirwart Castle. Originally built as a castle in the 8th century, the Château de Mirwart has become an exceptional, exclusive boutique hotel.

THE CHÂTEAU DE MIRWART IS ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING AND EXCLUSIVE HOTEL OPENINGS IN EUROPE.

Mirwart, a small village in the middle of the forests of the Ardennes, is one of the ‘most beautiful villages in Wallonia’ and is surrounded by 1,350 hectares of forest. Perched on a rock in the valley of the river “L’homme”, the castle was a bastion of the ducal tower of Lorraine.

Since its beginnings, the castle’s territory has been the subject of disagreements – and even wars. Various noble families bought and sold the property over the centuries. When the castle was finally sold to the Province of Luxembourg after the Second World War, things quickly went downhill. The building was looted and increasingly neglected.

Today, the castle shines in the finest splendour of the 21st century. With a lot of love, effort and enthusiasm, Mirwart Castle has been restored as a boutique hotel, with great respect for its past and great confidence in its future.

The “boutique” accommodations are located in three separate buildings, each with its own typical atmosphere. Château de Mirwart has 20 residences with different atmospheres. Castle Suites, Garden Balcony Suites and the “Tour de Dinant”, a former fortified tower. The surroundings of the Château de Mirwart inspired the interior design of the rooms.

The Château de Mirwart stands for authenticity, also in the culinary field. Chef Nick Van den Broeck cooks a cuisine of intuition, creativity and experimentation with new dishes. When it comes to ingredients, he relies on refined techniques, but also on a love of the essentials. Respect for the base, love for what is real and true.

Get away from it all, come to the Château de Mirwart and treat yourself to a magical stay in this idyllic setting.
