Charleroi

City

Charleroi, a large city in the Province of Hainaut, carries its own history with it: the story of valiant miners defying their working conditions. Its industrial past makes it both touching and intriguing, but above all it is the source of its reinvented youth!

Testimonials

  • Great place to stay, especially if you're flying out from Charleroi Airport. It's clean, modern, and comfortable. The shower has cabinets outside for you to put your clothes, and both shower/bathroom are very clean and spacious.
