Situated in nice quiet area. Walkable to the train station and town centre. Shop and laundry across the road and bakery at end of street. We liked the addition of small fridge, microwave and table and chairs to allow eating in. Spacious enough for two of us. Host was particularly helpful and accommodating.

Located right in Leuven's historical center, pentahotel Leuven features a fitness center and an on-site bar, and provides guests with laundry services, meeting facilities and free WiFi in public...

Location was perfect - right in the pedestrian area close to everything. Parking was on site, and directions provided were outstanding - they must have read an earlier review that said it was hard to find where to park because that is NOT a problem any more. Very clever to allow guests to forego housekeeping services in exchange for a drink at the bar.

This hotel is located within 656 feet from the 13th-century Grand Beguinage in Leuven and offers free WiFi access throughout the property.

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.

    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...

    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.

    It was wonderful wandering around the well-preserved old town, which is mostly pedestrianised, and supports cyclists so well. This makes the roads wonderfully quiet, and a pleasure to walk and cycle around. Hiring a bicycle to explore was very easy. We could easily have stayed an extra day, to explore more of the parks. The botanical gardens were lovely. It is difficult finding reasonably priced vegetarian meals in restaurants.

    Leuven at Christmas is pretty.

    Leuven at Christmas is pretty. Leuven in summer is relaxed with outdoor dining. And when it rains you can visit a museum or an event. But also shopping in the Mechelse straat is fantastic. We love the international student vibe. It is a special city to visit for a few days of fun.

    Nice city.

    Nice city. It was heavily destroyed during both World Wars, therefore, many tourists prefer Brugge and Ghent but here you can find some interesting place to visit. In particular, Grand Beginage of Leuven is biggest of all Beginages and I prefer it over Brugge's. Leuven library is great example of people willingness to repair what is important for them, no matter what. City Hall is very nice. Botanical garden is one of the nicest I ever seen. And for some reason, there is not much people. However, I cannot say I'm impressed with Christmas or any other Leuven markets - they are small. Same for shopping - there are more interesting place for shopping in Belgium. Transporation is easy: there is a bus stop close to railway station and Blue bike rental as well. City is small and walking is easy.
