Please contact us with questions or concerns regarding accessibility. If you require any items, please inform us prior to your arrival and we will be happy to work with you to assure a pleasant and comfortable stay.

The safety and health of our guests is our top priority! To savour your experiences at Hallerbos B&B in confidence, we have invested in a chemical-free technology for all of our cleanings, sanitizing and deodorizing. SAO™ technology system by Tersano has been proven and certified effective against all kinds of bacteria and viruses including the coronavirus. 

All guest rooms and common areas are cleaned and sanitized regularly for your peace of mind. Guest rooms are thoroughly cleaned prior to new guest arrival. We practice ServSafe techniques in preparing your breakfast.

Hand sanitizer stations are positioned outside of the dining room, at the check-in desk and in the rooms.

Check In is between 16:00-19:00. Check Out is at 11:00.

Early and late Check In or late Check Out (until 14:00) may be possible to accommodate your special requirements, subject to availability. We charge 20 Euro per hour for early Check In. Please notify us in advance of any early or late arrival, or any other relevant information regarding your travel itinerary.

We also offer breakfast to-go for early and late risers or departures.

Because nature is nature, don’t be surprised to hear all the beautiful sounds it has to offer from the local cows, roosters, chickens, sheep, donkeys, geese, birds and dogs. Sometimes, depending on the wind, you can hear the cars on the E19 highway. It’s the small price we have to pay to live so close to Brussels. We also respect the neighbourhood peace here with no noise after 23:00 please.

The wild hyacinths are in bloom between early April and Mid May. The weather clearly determines when the forest turns blue. In very good weather, bluebells bloom faster than usual and the flower carpet disappears faster than usual. The trees in the forest quickly come to leaf due to warm weather and then the bluebells receive less light, which reduces their flowering. You can easily check online if the bluebells are still putting up a show – the official website of Hallerbos puts videos and status reports of the flowers online each day. You can download the map of the hyacinth route here.

Don’t forget that the Hallerbos forest has lots to offer all four seasons – Have a look at our Seasonal Events page.

We are 100% dog-friendly and welcome your fur babies in our “Ree”, “Steenputbeek” and “Beuk” rooms and to join you for the experiences Hallerbos B&B, the Hallerbos Forest and our surroundings offer. 

We have a chocolate labrador, Loco, and a golden retriever, Stitch. If your dog is friendly, she/he is welcome to join our dogs in our 24 Belgian Aren (2400 square metres) garden. 

We provide a 4-paw package for your special companion when you arrive. They will be given a comfy dog bed, a food and water bowl and some doggie treats.  

Dogs are also welcome in the Hallerbos Forest as long as they are leashed and they can run leash-free in the 1 hectare (10,000 square metres) field at the entrance to the Hallerbos Forest, less than 300 metres from Hallerbos B&B.
