Locatedin the heart of French Flanders, between Dunkirk and Saint-Omer, the
Hostellerie Saint-Louis is a place steeped in history. Dating from the
end of the 18th century, this manor, owned by the Vandekerkhove family, a
wealthy family of the region, was bequeathed to their only child,
Louis. Seeing himself without an heir, Louis Vandekerkove decided to
give a new purpose to this large family home by transforming it into a
secular retirement home in the 1850s, before handing it over to the
commune upon his death.
Formany years, this historic manor of Bollezeele welcomed many residents
who came to enjoy their retirement peacefully. In 1970, a new life began
for this remarkable building, renamed the Hostellerie Saint-Louis,
which became a hotel-restaurant under the aegis of the Dubreucq family,
who ran the place for 50 years, under the sign of tradition.
2025will be marked by the takeover of this place by Emilie and Michel
Bouchaert, both passionate about hospitality and determined to add
touches of modernity to this place steeped in history to make it a
beautiful family home open to all, where one can eat, sleep, celebrate
with generosity, spend quality time with loved ones, meet for pleasure
or for business, with the promise of a memorable service and customer
experience.
