No impressive entrance and no red carpet. The simple front of the "Oude Houtlei" reveals no signs of the old, modest convent: PoortAckere. "An island, lost in the whirlpool of a tumultuous city".
Monasterium PoortAckere has two types of accommodation: Hotel Monasterium PoortAckere rooms with three star facilities in "De Maagdenvleugel", "Het Breedhuis" and "Het huis van de Rector". These rooms will be booked on this site.
The guest house rooms you will find under Guesthouse PoortAckere (one star accommodation).
Room information
The luxury rooms are designed with eye for tradition and combine a Neo-Gothic style with comfort.
Food & beverage
You will enjoy a nice breakfast buffet in the Kapittelzaal or in the inner garden in the morning sun.
