    Leuven is a great city with a lot of late Gothic...

    Leuven is a great city with a lot of late Gothic architecture. You can see the entire city in a weekend. The top sights were the city hall and the Tafelrond with the Cathedral across from it. The Begijnhof was actually one of the most beautiful places to walk to and through. So peaceful and beautiful architecture. The Kruidtuin (botanical gardens) were a huge treat. Free entrance. Even in the winter it was fun to walk around. M Museum is not that interesting. The collection is very small. It took about 1 hour to see everything. Leuven is a university city but still has a lot of gastronomy. There are restaurants for every budget. I loved the La Cantina Mexican restaurant. Bar Louis was also awesome for drinks before dinner. The stores are all closed on Sunday so take that into account when you go. I would definitely go back again sometime. You can walk everywhere.

    Beautiful small city, with everything within walking distance. There is a very wide range of eating places both in terms of price and type. The train connections are excellent to other local places, Mechelen was especially attractive.

    Beautifull, historic city.

    Beautifull, historic city. Splendid townhall, beautifully iluminated before Xmas. Library with great arquitecture and tragic 1st and 2nd World Wars history. Countless cafeterias, restaurants, bars, Xmas market at the Groote Markt. For churches lovers - very interesting places to see. M Leuven - art museum definately worth seeing. I had the luck to see the exhibition "Dieric Bouts. Creator of Images". Oct23-Jan24. Many events connected with this Leuven citizen and artist of the 15th century.

    Leuven is a beautiful town with a lot of old and well restored buildings, plenty of eating places and very lively not the least as a result of the student population which consists of walking and cycling Belgian and International students. Although the weather was quite bad we walked around before going to dinner The area around the Begijnhof makes you feel like you go back in the time. Another great thing about Leuven is that you can do everything on feet as everything is within walking distance.

    Leuven is a wonderful university town located 20 minutes by train from Bruxelles, in the Flemish region. Being the city of the most prestigious Belgian University, the town is vibrant and easy-going, with a rich history and several artistic and cultural hot spots of high interest. There is a quiet and fascinating botanic garden that provides a great opportunity for escaping into the peaceful greenery. You can easily walk around, but there is an efficient system of public transport. Several good restaurants from various international cuisines and many hotels are at hand. The University Library is a must: climbing its tower, floor by floor you will go through the history of the town, especially recalling how the tragedies of the two World Wars brutally impacted it. KU Leuven, the university and one of the main institutions of the town, which plays a pivotal role in organising events and cultural activities, offers one of the best university programs taught in English in the European continent, thus the town is authentically international. Moreover, there is the plant where Stella Artois is produced, where guided tours are organised: it is worth a visit!

    Leuven was absolutely amazing.

    Leuven was absolutely amazing. Getting lost in the sights, sounds & views. I rate Leuven much higher pertaining things to do, spots to explore & indulge your senses. For some people Antwerp, Gent & Bruges may rank higher, but for me Leuven is the better option. It’s off the beaten track, the churches, Groot Begijnhof, the Kruidtuin, even the unforgettable & magical Hal 5 at Kessel-lo. Do yourself a favour & go to Hal 5. You won’t regret it. Decadenza will serve up gelato that will put Venezia, and even Firenze to shame. Then there’s Danta’s coffee shop…. Oh my word! As confirmed coffee snob, I can only say Fantabulous indulgence. Leuven is easy to navigate, buses, trains and best of all, on foot, you will be treated to priceless gems. I would book a longer trip, then I can indulge more and get into the culture and even volunteer at the Chapelry of KU Leuven. Walking along the river Dijl, truly magical.

    Hotel Ladeuze is a nice small hotel that completely met my expectations. The room was small but had everything that I needed. The hotel and the room were clean. The location of the hotel is excellent because it is just a few blocks away from the heart of the city but it's still quiet around the hotel. When I stayed in the hotel, the Leuven Kermis (a local yearly festival) was on the nearby Ladeuzeplein and I still didn't experience any disturbance. The breakfast was good and the staff was friendly.

    The room is spacious and well organized and designed. The bed is very comfortable and rooms are kept well clean. The hotel is situated at quiet and lovely place, 10 mins walk from the downtown. Staff is amazing and always helpful. Breakfast was fabulous with plenty of choices. The best part: This hotel has own parking place with 4 charging points for EV cars (most of the parking places and hotels in Leuven do not have any), so I was very happy I could charge my car at this hotel.

    Everything is great. The location is super, close to the train station, 10 minutes walk to the city centre. Breakfast is very good, bed is great, shower works, hot water available. Staff helpful and friendly. However, I'll be honest, the hotel is need of renovation, the carpet is stained, there is a lot of dust in the room, restorant etc., the soundproofing is poor, when you open the window (the room windows were in the courtyard) you can smell the restaurant kitchen.

    Stayed here when attending the Belgian F1 Grand Prix (Spa Grand Prix) although it’s 1hr 30 mins away from the track, this hotel is located right next to the train station where you can take a train to Verviers-Central and from there a Grand Prix Shuttle bus takes you to the track. It was much cheaper to stay in Leuven than Spa and the very accessible public transport made the round trips each day a breeze. The staff and cleanliness in the hotel were excellent.

    Great hotel located in the center of Leuven close to the "grote markt" square. The rooms are spacious and clean. The bathroom has a big rain shower which feels luxurious. The staff was nice and efficient. The lobby looks cosy and a nice place to relax or read a book. Only the pillows where a bit thin for my liking but I stacked 2 pillows and it was fine. Overall, great place for business trips or long stay.

    The room was spacious, the bed was extremely comfortable, the blackout curtains did their job very well. Easy walk from the train station (5-7 minutes) but you can't hear the trains at all. Terrific breakfast. I know they have parking but I didn't have a car so I can't tell you about the parking experience. The town square is about a 10-15 minute walk, not bad at all. The staff were all very friendly.

    The location of the hostel is ideal for those arriving via the train station. The staff were very considerate of my late arrival and stayed till the last minute to assist me with check in. In addition the breakfast was also a stand out. Although it stated to only include the basics there, they had enough variety to satisfy my needs (Coffee, water, juices, cereal, yogurts, etc.).
