The city of Spa in Liège Province is about to witness a momentous event: the restoration of the luxury hotel 'Les Bains de Spa,' once a popular meeting place for noblemen and intellectuals, is coming to an end, Johan Van Wassenhove, CEO of the Denys Group, said during a press visit on Wednesday.
Designed in 1868 by Léon Suys, the architectural gem was recently listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is set to reopen on 1 March, concluding a project that began in 2009.
Renovated to respect the aesthetic and architectural criteria of its era, the hotel will feature 97 rooms and suites, a restaurant, a lobby bar, and a renowned spa with Roman baths and a jacuzzi.
The refurbishment also includes a new space— a paddock —dedicated to automobile enthusiasts.
