Hotel d'Alcantara

Lovely hotel, great service and large family room. Would absolutely recommend the hotel. Unfortunately the beautiful town of Tournai was spoilt by horrendous amounts of dog poo. No exaggeration there was dog poo everywhere. Starting from the hotel car park all through the town. It was difficult to look up at buildings and admire views because we had to keep looking at the pavement to check we weren’t standing in any. It was disgusting. There seemed to be no shame with locals just letting their dogs poo on pavements and even in the grassed area round the cathedral. Local people have much to be proud of as the town is lovely so it is a shame that it is spoilt in such a way. I’ve never experienced such a problem elsewhere on my travels.
