中文导读：安特卫普的“Crazy Rich”很有工艺和贸易城市的味道：140 平方米私人水疗套房、钻石区、米其林餐厅、比利时设计和一种把“材料、手艺、知识”都变成奢华的城市文化。
Did you know? Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp’s Two Bedroom Spa Suite is 140 square metres and has its own private Finnish sauna, whirlpool, heated treatment bed, Technogym bike and wine climate cabinet.
Book the Suite with Its Own Spa Upstairs
Botanic Sanctuary Antwerp transforms a historic monastery complex into a modern luxury hotel, but the Two Bedroom Spa Suite goes further by placing a private wellness floor inside the accommodation itself.
- 140 square metres;
- two bedrooms and two bathrooms;
- living room and kitchenette;
- private sauna and whirlpool;
- heated treatment bed; and
- wine climate cabinet because apparently hydration can be interpreted broadly.
The crazy-rich advantage is that wellness stops being a facility downstairs and becomes part of your apartment.
Treat Diamonds Like a Technical Purchase
Antwerp’s diamond identity makes jewellery shopping more interesting than a standard luxury-boutique visit.
A serious buyer asks about cut, carat, colour, clarity, certification, provenance, setting and aftercare.
The rich-person move is not “buy the biggest stone”.
It is understanding why one stone is better than another before paying for it.
Money can buy sparkle.
Knowledge buys confidence.
Stay in the Hotel and Still Eat Michelin
Botanic Sanctuary currently houses Hertog Jan, a two-MICHELIN-star restaurant, and Fine Fleur, a one-star restaurant, alongside additional dining concepts.
This gives wealthy guests one of luxury hospitality’s oldest and best advantages:
serious dinner without a transfer.
- dress upstairs;
- walk to dinner;
- choose the tasting menu;
- return to the private sauna; and
- accept that tomorrow’s breakfast is only a few floors away.
Shop Belgian Fashion Like Antwerp Still Matters to Fashion
Antwerp’s fashion identity is deeper than luxury labels. The city’s design culture, fashion academy legacy and independent boutiques make it a serious place to buy clothing from people who think about construction, silhouette and material.
The wealthy shopper should therefore mix:
- international luxury;
- Belgian designers;
- made-to-measure;
- fine jewellery; and
- objects from studios that would be difficult to find elsewhere.
