Cycling

Where cycling teams prepare to perform

Preparing for a new season. Completing the final training kilometres. Coming together for an important race. Or spending a few days fully focused on concentration, recovery and team spirit.

Hotel Acropolis is the ideal base for cycling teams looking for more than just a bed.

Thanks to our spacious accommodation, peaceful location in Sportpark Krokodiel and practical facilities, both professional cycling teams and amateur teams can stay with us for training camps, season preparations and pre-race training camps.

Here, everything revolves around one thing: giving the team the best possible preparation for what lies ahead.

From season preparation to pre-race training camps

A cycling season does not begin on the day of the Omloop Het Nieuwsblad.

It starts weeks and months beforehand, when a team comes together, clocks up the kilometres, finalises training schedules and gets the last details right.

Hotel Acropolis offers the ideal environment for:

  • Season preparations and training camps
  • Race preparation
  • Pre-race training camps
  • Multi-day training camps
  • Team meetings and briefings
  • Recovery and rest periods
  • Preparation for races and Classics

Whether it is a professional team, Continental team, cycling club or group of ambitious amateurs: we adapt to the team's rhythm and needs.

A hotel that understands the rhythm of a cycling team

Cycling teams have different needs from the typical hotel guest.

Early breakfast. Loading and unloading bikes. Washing training kit. Getting together for a briefing. Resting after a long ride. Organising equipment. And above all: enough space and peace for the team to function as a team.

That is why Hotel Acropolis is designed with both comfort and practical organisation in mind.

Spacious accommodation

Our spacious rooms and suites provide plenty of comfort during multi-day stays. The king-size beds ensure a good night's sleep, so the legs are ready to do their work again the next day.

A separate wing for the team

Depending on availability, a team can make use of a separate hotel wing, providing extra peace, privacy and a clear team atmosphere.

Together as a team, without constantly having other hotel guests around you.

Spacious lounge

After training, not everyone has to head straight to their room.

Our spacious lounge provides a place to come together, relax, discuss a race or organise a team meeting.

Because sometimes the most important tactical decisions are made with your feet up.

Everything taken care of

Bike wash station

Cleaning bikes is also part of professional preparation.

Hotel Acropolis has a bike wash station, allowing bikes to be cleaned practically and efficiently after training or a race.

Mud on. Mud off. Ready for the next ride.

Laundry

A cycling team brings quite a lot of laundry.

That is why the hotel has a laundry area with washing machines, allowing training and race kit to be washed during your stay.

A small facility that makes a big difference during a training camp.

Bus parking

The team bus needs somewhere to park, too.

Hotel Acropolis offers spacious parking facilities for buses, allowing teams to arrive, depart and organise their equipment with ease.

YOUR BASECAMP ON THE BELGIAN COAST

Hotel Acropolis is located in the heart of Sportpark Krokodiel in Middelkerke.

The combination of a peaceful environment, spacious accommodation and proximity to the Belgian coast makes the hotel particularly suitable as a base for cycling teams.

From the hotel, the team can head out on training rides towards the coast, the hinterland and the many challenging roads of West Flanders.

Clock up the kilometres during the day. Recover in the evening. And in between, focus on the race.
