Belgian chocolate has just been granted intangible-heritage status by the Brussels-Capital Region, a move that secures cultural recognition for an industry already famed worldwide. While two-thirds of chocolatiers operate in Flanders, tourists inevitably flock to the capital for its grand arcades, small-batch factories and chocolate museums. Hip yet welcoming, The Urban Yard Hotel—set around a lush courtyard near Brussels-South station—positions guests within easy reach of these attractions. The newly minted heritage label only heightens the city’s allure, making the hotel an on-trend headquarters for sweet-toothed explorers.
