Tournai is a beautiful place to visit.
Tournai is a beautiful place to visit. We will return one day to see the cathedral when it's renovation is finished and the scaffolding removed. What we saw of it was beautiful. This is a lovely town, with lots to see in the town and nearby. It is good for cycling, walking and sampling the lovely Belgian beers.

The beffroi (bell tower) is very worthwhile for a visit - it's just as good as the ones in Brugge and Ghent and is a lot less pricey. We also enjoyed walking around the Old Town and seeing the churches. Finally, there's an international branch of Oxfam near the cathedral, where we were able to buy lots of fair trade Belgian chocolates and things to snack on.

I had been driving for around 5000km (you have printed several reviews of hotels in Belgium, Germany, Denmark and Sweden) when I arrived in Tournai for my last stop before returning to GB. The stop started very badly when it took half an hour to find a parking place, and I still had no accommodation booked at 19h. I walked into the Hotel l'Europe and through a tropically themed bar with loud music, only to be shouted at by a young man near the door to come back. I then saw that the hotel entrance was near where he was working and started towards it only to be shouted at again and told to stand in front of him! He then very rudely informed me that there were no rooms available, and, to be honest, I was quite relieved as I would not want to have stayed there even if he had offered a free room!
I found a pleasant bar with wifi, contacted booking.com and booked in at the Hotel Cathedrale, which was fine and which I have reviewed. Once I got to the pleasant bar/restaurant (Charles Quint) where the staff were lovely, and where I later had a superb dinner, things started looking up and I thoroughly enjoyed the rest of my stay. Tournai is a beautiful town, the centre currently undergoing restoration, after which it will be magnificent.

The are lots of different museums and galleries. We just sampled one, Museum de beaux arts) plus an evening walk around on a warm summer evening. We had to avoid one street where an Agatha Christie film was being made! The 12th century cathedral may be closed for a while longer as it is being extensively renovated inside and out. Henry VIII visited it and we would like to hae done too!

Cathedral Notre Dame was beautiful and interesting.
Cathedral Notre Dame was beautiful and interesting. There's some beautiful authentic bakeries, which are very reasonably priced. Market square is also a lovely place to meet friends and chill.
It's very easy to get around Tournai, you can walk around a lot, however you can explore more if you have a car.

We liked the architecture, the people were friendly.
We liked the architecture, the people were friendly. The lights at night in the Grand Place gave it a nice atmosphere. Being Good Friday there was a lovely procession of Christ on the Cross through the square and a service transmitted over loud speakers from outside the church. Plenty of bars and cafes to eat and drink. Being the Easter weekend unfortunately there was not much open for tourists.
“Super-friendly hosts
