Discover "La balade des gnomes" - Charming hotel in Durbuy - Part 1
Hi Steemians!! It's been a while since I posted on steemit. I went on a weekend with my girlfriend @lajulius for our one year in a charming hotel located in Durbuy.
The name of the hotel is "La balade des gnomes" (The gnomes stroll) click on the link for the website ;)
We made a lot of pictures during the stay that is why I will make you discover all this in 2 or 3 posts.
Here is the location on Google.

Great job again!!
Thank you for the pictures :)
Thank you ;)
Really nice historic place. must be several decades old at least.
No @ace108 :) the hotel is fairly new, everything is just decor. Just the building is old.
Thanks for your reply ^^
You're welcome. Wow, then they did really good work with the decoration.
Of course the old building helps to fit their theme :-)
Merci beaucoup por post @pickoum.
Excellente fotos and commentary.....juste amazing....like walking into a painting and staying there overnight. Appreciate you bringing this hotel to Steemit.
Bonjour to all. A bientot. ^_^

mmmm ok thanks :)
@pickoum, I love Durbuy and I went there in summer and joined the LPM adventure - that was the first time I did "abseilen" holy crap - gave me spaghetti legs!
Have you been to the Topiaries? It's cute there! I love it there - but didn't stay in this amazingly interior designed hotel :)
Hey sorry for the late.. I never try abseilen I have a littlefear of heights :)
It was closed at Topiaries because of the weather so we went to the restaurant lol
@pickoum oh darn, i forgot that they're not open during this season ahaha sorry . Did you go up the tower? The one where you could see the city from below ?
I miss Durbuy very quiet ... I love the Ardenne, you should go visit Spa, too - thermen :) very good for this weather no?
Magnifique, je ne connaissais pas cet endroit, pourtant j'ai un pote qui habite Bomal !! Faudra que j'aille y faire un tour :-) .
Merci pour ce beau voyage dans le pays des fees et des gnomes.
Mais de rien :) désolé du temps de réponse mais parfois je rate qqes commentaires.. Si tu connais qqun dans les environs vas y faire un tour et si tu veux dormir à l'hotel réserve bien avant ^^ c'est souvent complet mais il y a parfois des désistements
Merci à toi, j'irai surement y faire un tour, :-)
