A few of my mates work for Formula Palmer Audi and go to Spa once a year, will find out from them where they stay.

Each time i have been i have stayed in the paddock, awsome circuit, boring drive to get there though especialy in a truck, once in Belgium its one
long straight road, you will know when you are getting close because it suddenly becomes very hilly, and i do mean VERY.....
definatly my favourite track, i love it....

I went last year for a track day. We stayed at the Hotel Bellvue.
it was very cheap, but had reasonable rooms. About 5 mins from circuit too. Don't expect a 4 start room though. It was ok. See link
below.
hotel

You can get some good deals on Harwich to the Hoek at the moment, the overnight one is a bit pricy, but the 4 hour crossing is great, and starts from
59 quid each way which was a lot cheaper tha dover-wherever the last time i went there.
Try Stena Line
Watch out in Holland around Gouda, my housemate got busted big time, i've been happily cruising around the wrong side of where the speed
restrictor used to be and not had anything (yet.) so just be careful. (Obviously i was driving on the autobahn at the time.)
The belgians drive a bit faster than the Dutch in general which you may want to remember if your planning your routes.
