ABOUT OYO
Since 2014
OYO?
A good stay isn't only about where you sleep. It's about the bath after a long day. The first coffee in the morning. A restaurant you would never have found yourself. A walk through the city after dinner. And that feeling of having nowhere else to be.
A small place. A slower stay.
OYO is a small, independent place to stay in Kortrijk, Belgium.
Since 2014, we’ve been creating rooms and apartments for people who appreciate a good bed, a quiet place and a little bit of personality.
No big hotel. No lobby. No crowds.
Just a comfortable place to stay, with someone nearby when you need something.
What does 'OYO' mean?
In Japanese, oyo is an expression of surprise — something like “wow” or “oh!”
We liked that.
Because we believe a stay doesn’t have to be complicated to be memorable.
MADE WITH CARE
OYO is independent and owner-run.
I’m Oliver, and I’ll probably be the person answering your email, welcoming you, recommending a restaurant or helping with your luggage.
It’s small by design.
And that’s exactly how we like it.
The OYO story
OYO started in 2014 in a 1930s townhouse, close to the centre of Kortrijk.
I wanted to create something simple: a place that feels personal, comfortable and a little different from a typical hotel.
Over the years, OYO has grown from three rooms into two places to stay: OYO rooms and oYo apartments.
Different spaces, same idea:
stay comfortably. slow down. make yourself at home.
2 ways to stay
OYO ROOMS
Three individual rooms in our original townhouse.
For a quiet night, a weekend away or a business stay.

Two private apartments with their own kitchen and living space.
For longer stays, work trips or simply having more space.
