Very nice old monistery with lots of character. Walking distance from the old center of Ghent

Room is smell weird, also you can hear any noise because doors are too thin. Whenever someone open their doors or walk though the corridor, you feel they are in your room.

Historical building, very close to center

With its age, you can hear everything around you. People’s TV, walking around, conversations

Very clean room and nice staff. Really unique building and experience

Extremely clean and crisp

Location and Historic Convent

Understandably, sound proof was not part of the plan when the building was raised in the 19th century. Better bring/provide a pair of earplugs.

Unique experience of living in a nun’s cell :) Staff were extraordinarily friendly. Fascinating location. Walking distance to the university and allows you to explore the quieter side of the city centre and the excellent local cafes.

Such a special location to visit and stay at! The place has a great ambience. Important to expect the shared showers as it's not for everyone, but it was fine for me. There are slippers and a bathrobe to use as you walk between the bedroom and bathroom. I really enjoyed the stay.

It meets expectations and quite nice stay for a night to explore Ghent

This is an old monastery that's why the facilities are on the floor. The building is amazing, very beautiful, it is not far from city center on the quite street. It can be a bit noisy from the corridor though

Simple accommodation (it's an old monastery, after all!) but a strong sense of history and great location. Small comfortable room with sink. Shared showers and toilet but never had to wait and they were clean. Great for the solo traveller wanting to explore Ghent. The breakfast was truly outstanding with lots of hot and cold options. Lovely dining area. Looks like it's also set up to host conferences. Would definitely stay there again.

The mosquito repellant in the room was not filled and I was bitten 7 times. Because the room was shaded for most of the day it was the side with the most insects and even with the windows shut I still ended up squashing mosquitoes in my room every night. But I recognise that there is little the hotel could do about this apart from providing more repellant.

For the price of the room I was very satisfied. The fittings in the room were practical and nicely done, and it still felt like I was in an old monastery.

The power socket close to the bed didn't work. And there was a fire alarm at 5:30am.. not a word of explanation or excuse from the staff.

Staying in a comfortable cell of a former monastery is a real treat! The breakfast was fantastic with salmon and sparkling wine!

The toilet nearest my room did not have a separately locking door, which made me a little anxious. It was a little expensive for what you get.

The room was comfortable. The free wifi was good. Instant coffee and tea were available close to the room. It really is an old monastery, which is really cool. The location was excellent - a great base for exploring historic Ghent.

Facility hosted a Loud party until midnight. The cost was high for the value.

The experience, but I did not feel any spiritual energy. Merely an accommodation facility.

Not too luxurious, but what you see is what you get.

Cute old monastery turned into a guesthouse. It still has that old feeling (don't know if it's a good or a bad thing). It's a no thrills place, but for that money, it's a pretty good deal.

The staff was always kind and helpful. The place was clean and cozy. I really enjoyed my staying!

Stayed in May 2023

The walls were paper thin. I could hear everything, even the footsteps of the occupants 1 floor above. This affected my night sleep badly because I got woken up many times.

The room was private. All the necessities were there.The bed was super comfy! The room smelled good.

A monastery is a perfect place to stay for a unique vacation experience. Be ready for a shared bathroom 20m away from you room and creaking doors and floor. Pricey, but impressive breakfast (22EUR) - served with sparkling vine, salmon, pancakes, cheese, meat and cakes selection :)

Stayed in May 2023

The breakfast option looked expensive but I used a nearby bakery.

The hotel was close to the historic centre of Ghent with good access to trams and buses. My room was comfortable, the shared showers and WC were close, clean and modern. A dressing gown and slippers were provided in the room for my use. For the centre of Ghent the room price was very reasonable.

The only thing I can think of is that the tea / coffee machine near me didn't heat up the water enough. However, there was a kettle along the corridor and I just used that station instead.

Great location, friendly helpful staff, wonderful historic building.

Very clean, helpful staff, impressive ambiance. It was very nice to me that I stayed in such a good place. It was just 3-5 mins away by walking to the bridge.

I thought the television screen in the room was actually overshooting. The room should've been kept spartan, as you would expect in an abbey.

The setting is amazing! I liked the small, abbey-like rooms
