Hostels in Ghent

Amazing value for the price. The bed was very comfortable and close to electric sockets. Lockers are available with sockets inside, so you can leave your electronic devices safe while charging. It's a huge place with terrace, bar, a big lounge, even a cinema roulette. There lounge is very colorful with graffiti, and it provides several games (table tennis, fussball, board games etc.). The kitchen is small, but clean and has everything you need. They encourage you to eat in the lounge or terrace. There is a very nice vibe. The staff was extremely friendly. I arrived late and they didn't make an issue of it. Instead, they kept the kitchen open longer for me to eat dinner. The staff even provided a box of vegetables to eat for free. Breakfast was also very good. I saw they also rent out bikes and canoes but I didn't use the service.

Staff is always happy to help, the best customer service! Comfortable bed, clean bathroom, beautiful view from the room. Loved that breakfast was included.

Definitively, this is one of THE BEST hostels in Europe. From the historical building and incredible restoration work, the location, the staff, the attention to details and the desire to satisfy their client to the best ability, this hostel deserves its high rating, and more. I was completely swayed by the spacious rooms, comfortable beds, the lounge area AND the kitchen, bar and drink vending machine, incredibly affordable and spacious lockers, the views from the window and the overall energy in the building. I've met great people during my stay and would go as far as to recommend this over a hotel to stay over for a mini trip, whether alone or with friends.

Very friendly and hospitable staff Good location. Good value for money.
