At Courtyard Ghent, dining is more than a convenience - it’s a journey through Belgian tradition and Italian refinement. Whether you are looking for the casual, high-energy buzz of a local brasserie or the sophisticated intimacy of a curated dinner, our two distinct venues offer a seat for every mood. From the first espresso of the morning at Stroom to the final vintage pour at Arno, we invite you to taste the best of both worlds without ever leaving the hotel.
Brasserie in Ghent
Brasserie Stroom is about celebrating Belgian culinary traditions, with an emphasis on hearty, flavourful dishes, craft beers, and a vibrant, casual atmosphere.
For groups larger than eight or those seeking a secluded atmosphere, we offer a dedicated private dining experience. ARNO is the ideal backdrop for strategic business lunches or refined celebrations, with bespoke menus tailored to your guests’ preferences and the season’s best produce. Enjoy discreet service in an environment designed for connection.
Our menu at Stroom is a curated collection of Ghent’s culinary heritage, polished for the modern traveler. Have you tasted our Gentse Waterzooi reimagined, or our signature Hand-Cut Steak Tartare? Every ingredient is sourced from the fertile polders and local artisans of East Flanders. It’s honest, unpretentious, and deeply satisfying—the kind of meal that makes you feel like a local from the very first bite.
Our Private Dining Room offers a secluded and refined setting for groups of up to 12 guests. Experience culinary customization in a calm and intimate atmosphere, whether you are hosting a business meeting, celebrating a special occasion, or enjoying a tailor-made dinner from our chef. Enjoy complete privacy with discreet, personalized service designed with attention to every detail.
We take pride in the "honest food" philosophy of our kitchen. From our famous hand-cut steak tartare to our dry-aged selections, we highlight the mastery of local East Flanders butchers and artisans in every bite.
Discover "1974" a gin with a story unique to our doorstep. Inspired by the rich heritage of Ghent, this refined spirit features hand-selected botanicals that pay homage to the year a pivotal chapter of our region was written. Balanced and distinctive, it is the perfect companion to a slow evening by the water. Pair it with our selection of local craft beers, brewed just stones-throw away by Ghent masters.
While we offer an exclusive private dining room for up to 12 guests, our main floor is designed for the theater of dining. From larger group gatherings to intimate table settings, we specialize in creating tailor-made experiences. Let us host your next milestone with a menu curated specifically for your party, ensuring a celebration with true local character.
