Hello,
A bit of good info please.
Four of us heading to Spa in June, one night stay, where is the best place to stay (as in not the most expensive, just a good place to stay with secure parking)
Cheers

La Source hotel right by the circuit is always favourite. Nice hotel and dead convenient normally about 100 euros per nite roughly

There is a best western on the main square in the town that is reasonably priced and has a big secure off street garage round the corner behind a shutter. Can't remember the name but google is your friend.

La Source hotel definitely. I stayed at Radisson Blu Balmoral, it was nice, but La Source is much better in my opinion

La Source is a bit remote from civilisation. I usually stay in the centre of town at the Radisson Blu Palace.

La Source is right by the track in Francorchamps, but about 5 miles from Spa. To go out for the night I'd rather be in Spa for La Belle Époque restaurant (only been once but was really excellent) and the casino. I stayed at the cheap & cheerful Cardinal (I think) next door to the Raddison, directly opposite the old historic swimming baths building, outside of which was the ceremonial start ramp for a historic rally that was on that weekend, which provided for a great view from my bedroom window.

Yep, as already mentioned, Radisson Blu in the centre of Spa.

I stayed at Le Pierre in Spa last weekend, and it was perfectly fine - not expensive, and did everything needed for an overnighter!

I can also do you a deal on some casino chips I forgot to cash in hehe

Its the, L'Auberge, typical BW but ok for a night or two and it's nice to get the cars off the street into the large lockup garage. There next month, as a stop off whilst travelling down for DN8 wink

Don't know about the others but the Radisson Blu sells draft Stella Artois. It's important...

Radisson Blu is top quality and has a nice, er, spa with a naturist section if you are feeling brave.

Thats the one. Cheers. Most people posting about La Source , its not in Spa !! Its in Stavelot right on the exit of the circuit and nowhere near anything ( other than the circuit ). Spa town is aprox 5 miles away. I think the OP stated Spa , as in the town not the track..... anyway, L`auberge is a little cheaper than the radisson but has the added benefit of secure off street parking hidden away from preying eyes. The radisson does not ( or didnt the last time i went ) and cars were abandoned on the street. Not a massive problem unless you have a track car that you cannot lock. Its not essential to stay at the Radisson to drink there. Plenty of photos on the net of each so have a shufty and see what you prefer biggrin

Stay in comfortable rooms at Villa des Fleurs and eat dinner at L'Auberge. Both owned by Best Western and only 100 yds apart.
