Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were generally clean and spacious, although some noise from the street was noticeable at night. The service was remarkable, with everything prepared for me and a warm welcome. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Ghent, making it convenient to explore the city. The dining experience was decent, though a bit pricey for breakfast.
The hotel is centrally located, a short walk from the city center, making it convenient for exploring. The rooms, especially the spacious upstairs bedroom, were immaculate and well-maintained. The service was friendly and accommodating, despite some initial payment requests. Dining options were good but with room for improvement in certain areas.
The hotel is in a convenient location, close to the city center with easy access to attractions and dining options. The rooms, despite being small, have good facilities and are not heavily impacted by traffic noise. The service is friendly and attentive. The dining experience offers a variety of choices and good quality.
The hotel is a basic but very clean place to sleep after a day in the city. The rooms are small but clean and warm, offering a seating area, TV, plenty of cupboards, and space for clothing. The service is friendly and accommodating, perfect for a short stay. The location is excellent, close to all the sights, within easy walking distance to the town center. The dining experience is average with decent choices, but some find it overpriced with limited cooked options. Overall, it's a convenient place in the center of Gent with easy access to main attractions, despite some room size limitations and dining disappointments.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was very nice and roomy, like an apartment over two floors, but unfortunately, there was no view as it was at the back overlooking a busy and noisy road. The service was a bit of a rollercoaster, from being extremely helpful and welcoming to encountering rude and obnoxious staff. The location was great, just a 5-minute walk from the bustling old town with plenty of attractions, but also just off the main tourist area ensuring a quiet stay. The dining experience offered a standard European breakfast with a good variety, but at times, it felt there wasn't enough food. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.
