Spa accomadation.
Discussion
I'm putting together some 2026 F1 weekends.
One event of interest is Spa, so looking for accommodation for three middle-aged blokes. None of us would consider staying in a tent these days, so what we are looking for is either:
1. Accommodation within walking distance of the circuit.
2. Somewhere further afield, but with circuit transfers.
Can anyone offer any advice on this?
TIA, etc.

As above glamping or hire a camper van. Hotels close to the track are prohibitively expensive as you would expect during the F1 weekend.
Some pretty good deals on Airbnb at the moment https://tinyurl.com/4smytxsu the one at €300 per night, sleeps six and is very close to the track.
Local people also offer accommodation, you should be able to find more details online. It WILL rain, pack accordingly.

I've been to Spa many times. I enjoy camping but found camping at Spa absolutely horrific. Muddy and cramped, plus the tent was robbed. I vowed never to camp there again.
It's almost impossible to find a hotel anywhere near the track. I ended up staying in Leuven because I knew the town from doing some work for a client there, and caught the train to Verviers each day, then a shuttle bus to the circuit. I did that for many years running. If you want to be closer, Liege is on the same train line but much closer to Verviers.

This is what I would have said. I camped once and it was worse than Glastonbury. Verviers or Liege are the places to look.It's almost impossible to find a hotel anywhere near the track.

We stayed here a couple of times to visit the GP: https://www.gulpdal.nl/
Some nice places to have dinner in the same village too.
