The main thing I want from any hotel is a decent bed and a good night's sleep. This failed on both counts - the beds are cheap and very uncomfortable. The walls were so thin as to hear everything from several rooms down the corridor. Won't be using this one again.

Room was ok Having to pay for the car parking!!! It was extraordinary to have to pay for parking in an out-of-town hotel anyway, but the charge of 9 Euros was to me unacceptable!! The hotel staff seemed to have a poor knowledge of public transport to and from the hotel. On first check-in they didn't provide a photo-copy map of the area the buses went to. After requesting later, they gave a one-page photocopy, but seemed very vague about where to catch and where get off the return bus The location was VERY poor with poor public transport, particularly for returning on New Year's eve. In view of the time of year, I think the hotel could have organised a shuttle to avoid driving

When they delivered the baby cot to the room I was impressed to see they had a couple of toys for my 1.5 yr old to play with which was fantastic.

I would like to congratulate trainee Jean-Charles and Bart for their very good behavior. Thanks, Ravi I was very annoyed with Guest Receptionist, "helen" who worked on 19th Dec (evening). I had a genuine problem of Internet Connection (Wi-Fi) and she said, she cant help me !!! Thats so embarassing. Moreover, upon insisting, she said, I can complain to gm of the Hotel.. With such behavior of staff, I shall NEVER Come back to your Hotel. Thanks, Ravi

As a lone traveller, I always feel comfortable at hi Gent; the bar is welcoming and not too big and the range pf snacks is very good for people who don't want to eat in the restaurant. I have stayed at this hotel several times and am very happy to continue to do so in the future.

Although several miles from centre of Gent it was simple to travel into by bus/tram. Hotel was very relaxing with good facilities and a restaurant which was both friendly and good value. Room was very comfortable. The directions given on your web site for finding the hotel by road was a little confusing.

Spacious rooms, cheap dinner options, value for mony The bathroom looked fine, equipment, clean etc - However the towel had a horrible smell, the common "being washed with a too low temperature" but this time to the extreme, that when touching them the smell would be on your hands several hours later - a real shame (due to wrong "savings" I guess)

Room was big and clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. Private parking available (9 Euro/day). Breakfast buffet offered a variety of food and was very tasty. We got to choose between soft and firm pillows. Even though there was no refrigerator in the room, there were ice machines in the hallways.

The personal and the hotel as well as the service was of a high standard. The location was perfect as it only took a couple of minutes and then you were on the Autobahn which was a conveniance for myself who was tavelling on further. I could not say anything negitive to the whole set up.

“The Receptionist was always extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast facilities and food selection was very good. The 'suite' facilities were excellent - very spacious, clean, comfortable. The location was perfect, the surroundings were quiet at night, and it was a leisurely 10 minute stroll to the centre of the old city, and no matter which route you took the scenery was always pleasant. Ghent is a great city to visit, and the 'locals' are very friendly :-)” Liam, Dublin 16 |

“Possibly the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in - We were lucky to get one of the deluxe rooms, but it was perfect. The breakfast was really good, the Gym/Spa was just enough and the location was perfect.” Kim, Brighton |
