Local knowledge for Antwerp
Where to stay
Most budget hostels sit near Centraal Station along De Keyserlei, or in Sint-Andries just west of the Meir, which puts you within walking distance of Kammenstraat, the Friday flea market at Vrijdagmarkt, and the bar strip in 't Zuid. Borgerhout, one tram stop east of the station, is quieter and noticeably cheaper for longer stays.
Getting around
- The MAS (Museum aan de Stroom) charges for its permanent collection, but the rooftop panorama is free. Take the elevator to the top floor for the best view of the Scheldt.
- Skip the restaurants on Steenplein and Groenplaats. Walk five minutes into Sint-Andries or 't Zuid and prices drop by a third, portions get bigger, and there are fewer people waving laminated menus at you.
- A Velo day pass costs next to nothing and the city is flat. It beats the De Lijn trams for most cross-center trips and you can lock the bike anywhere in the network.
When to go
January and February are the cheapest months to book. Hostels fill up in July and August, and again in late November through December when the Grote Markt Christmas market pulls in weekend crowds from Brussels and the Netherlands.
