If you're in Stavelot on a weekend, don't miss this eccentric delight. The dining room is smothered in bohemian quotes, poems and massed pictorials relevant to the French poet and art critic Guillaume Apollinaire, who did a runner from this very place in 1909. The three-course set dinners are imaginative and remarkably good quality, and Sunday meals are four-course ‘surprises’.
No credit cards, and no mobile phones at the table.
Ô Mal-Aimé also offers comfortable if ultra-minimalist modern rooms (single/double €85/95). At breakfast (included) you can appreciate the remarkable stained-glass frontage at its best.
