After Hotel & Congress Ter Elst was taken over in 2011 and thanks to a full transformation of the company, it became one of the major key players in the Meetings & Events industry in the Antwerp region.
“We don’t do anything else, we just do it a different way”
What does Ter Elst offer?
Ter Elst is a 3-star hotel located in Edegem (nearby Antwerp) with a 4-star service.
The property includes 53 hotel rooms, 1 apartment, a large garden and 400+ free parking spots.
Ter Elst offers the largest and busiest Tesla charging spot in Belgium, with 18 Tesla Supercharging stations (expandable to 24) and 3 universal chargers free of charge for our guests.
The hotel is popular for its many facilities. On site there is a David Lloyd fitness club which our Hotel visitors are welcome to use. The premium club includes a fitness club, an indoor and outdoor swimming pool, tennis courts and wellness.
The bistro Bar Bell offers fine dining in an informal atmosphere. Since 2020, a gastronomic Thai restaurant ‘Yac Thai’ has been added to the hotel’s facilities and has already received a public award in Gault Millau.
The hotel is therefore the preferred location for national hockey teams and other sports clubs such as the Anderlecht Football Team, the Bora Hansgrohe and Quick-step cycling team.
Additionally the hotel includes, alongside the 3000m² of congress and events space, a large auditorium with 400 seats. Throughout the years, Ter Elst has built-up a recurring and stable client base with several top clients eg. PHP, Baloisse, Prebes and Jaguar. The congress center is well-known to welcome many car manufacturers as the Expo hall is used as a training setup for the yearly “auto-salon” in Brussels.
During the Corona period, we were able to respond quickly to altered market needs thanks to our flexible business model. Our Expo hall has been transformed into 2 smaller event halls of 500m². In collaboration with our technical partner Blue Moon, one of these spaces was converted into Blue Moon [email protected] Elst. These 5 modular high-tech studios offer a perfect solution for online or hybrid events, 100% Covid-Proof.
Thanks to this rapid adjustment, we were one of the first locations offering this service. Voka, Medical congresses, national and international companies, as well as our first Prime Minister having already had the opportunity to experience these studios
Thanks to the wide range of meeting rooms we were able to continue working. Depending on the applicable Covid guidelines, meetings could easily be converted to online or hybrid events. Therefore guests can choose to attend the meeting interactively online, or participate in the conference for a limited group on site.
‘We can receive your guests safely via live streaming, as well as personally and safely onsite.’
We are looking forward to welcome you at Ter Elst!
