Interested in the opinion of other guests? Have a quick look at the reviews. Ypres (Ieper) is a city at the foot of the West Flemish hill side, half an hour's drive from the sandy beaches in the North and from lively Lille (Rijsel) in France; only one hour away from other gems like Bruges ( Brugge ) and Ghent ( Gent ). The Albion Hotel in St. James' Street (St.-Jacobsstraat) aims to be a hospitable paradise for the pilgrim to Compostela and for the pleasure-lover as well. A cocoon for the poet and the reader, for the hiker and the biker. Discover the delights of the country from these charming surroundings. Your hosts speak Dutch, English, French and do their utter best in Italian and German.
