Concierge "The intimate Matelote is a refreshing take on the traditional Flemish talent for cozy interiors."
Condé Nast Traveler "Occupying a renovated sixteenth-century brick house on a tiny lane steps from the medieval Grote Markt, the intimate Matelote is a refreshing take on the traditional Flemish talent for cozy interiors." Full review
