Le Relais de Lou | B&B, chambre d'hôtes | Hesbaye
A guest-room stay rooted in Hesbaye
About this hotel
Le Relais de Lou wears its setting in its own name, a chambre d'hôtes placed squarely in the Hesbaye countryside that surrounds Hannut and Landen. With 14 reviews so far, it is one of the smaller, newer-to-this-list stays, the kind of intimate guesthouse where a family gets more personal attention than a larger hotel could offer. It fits the wider character of this area well: quiet farmland, a slower pace, and a genuine sense of place rather than a generic hotel room that could be anywhere. That single fact shapes how the whole stay should be planned around the park visit. It is a small detail, but one that changes how the rest of the day tends to unfold for a family with kids in tow.

- Guest B&B
Our take
Families wanting a small, personal guesthouse experience over a larger hotel's anonymity will likely enjoy this one, particularly if a quiet Hesbaye evening appeals after a loud day of slides. With fewer reviews than some larger properties on this list, it is worth reaching out directly to confirm room details and family configurations before booking, especially for a larger group.
- ✓Contact the property directly to confirm room setup for your family size, given its smaller, guesthouse scale.
- ✓Book ahead if travelling in school holidays, since smaller chambres d'hôtes like this one have fewer rooms to begin with.
- ✓Ask the hosts for local Hesbaye recommendations; a small B&B often knows the area better than a larger hotel would.
Why we love it
- Genuine Hesbaye countryside setting
- Small, personal guesthouse feel
- Quiet rural evenings
- A distinct alternative to a chain hotel
Why guests love itWe wanted something quieter than a hotel after a loud day at Plopsaqua, and this small guesthouse gave us exactly that. Being hosted rather than just checked in made a difference, with genuinely useful local tips about the area. Rooms were simple but comfortable, and the kids liked having a proper garden to run around in before bed, something a standard hotel room would not have offered.
