This unique Boutique Hotel was built around an inner
garden, in accordance with the tradition of the Grand Hotels. Hotel Damier,
a business Hotel, is anything but cold-hearted or strict. The elegant facade,
the strategic location in the Grand Place and the plush furnishings testify to a
profound cultural identity. If you stay at the Hotel Damier, you will sense the
spirit of Flanders and wallow in the opulence of its cultural heritage.
HistoryThe 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 equivalent
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 facade has remained unchanged since the day it was built in 1769. With a
magnificent rococo facade, the building is one of the finest architectural
assets of the city of Kortrijk
Hotel Damier is situated in the heart of the city centre & C.B.D.,
on the famous market square offering delightful dining, entertainment, major
shopping, banks & a great buzzing night life. It lies only 8 minutes from
the Exhibition Center ('XPO Kortrijk'), 18 minutes from Lille (North of France).
Just a half hour drive from Bruges and one hour from Brussels and International
Airport. The Railway Station is just 2 minutes walk from the Hotel. Public
transport nearby the Hotel.
The restaurant "De Gulden Sporen" organises regulary gastronomic
festivals in co-operation with Michelin Star rated restaurants.
The Daemberd Barlounge, designated a listed building by the Bureau of
Ancient Monuments and Historic Buildings, is still, to this day, one of the last
surviving fine examples of how plush inns used to look in Flemish provinces.
