The amazing Penthouse is located in the Old Port area, which is going through a sympathetic level of development - becoming a hip little harbour with surrounding bars and restaurants.
The area is close to the City Centre - either a 20 minute scenic stroll, and a 5 minute walk to the tram, and then a 5 minute journey.
It’s a safe area, and when visited we were lucky to have great weather, so it was good to find lots of bars and restaurants around the apartment to sit outside.
There’s a good supermarket a couple of minutes away, so you could quiet easily be self sufficient within the immediate area if you didn’t want to venture far & stay put instead.
The Penthouse itself lives up to the expectations set by the photos in the listings. Cool, Contemporary, and Comfortable. Very spacious, and quiet at night. We spent quite a bit of time in the apartment during our stay, as it was such a nice environment. The best Airbnb apartment we’ve stayed in to date.
Tommy and Stefania were great Hosts, arranging easy check-in and offering great tips on what to do, where to go, and how to get around. They could not have been more helpful.
We’ll definitely plan to return to Antwerp, and Tommie’s Penthouse will be at the top of our list.
