Loved this place! It felt like stepping back in time. Everything was comfortable, I had an amazing cocktail at The Cobbler, and the location was perfect. I’ll never stay anywhere else when visiting Gent.

I loved everything about the hotel. The decor was chic, comfortable and relaxing. Staff was helpful and very friendly. Breakfast was delicious and the room it was served in gorgeous. Bar was excellent. Both my husband and I will be back and would recommend it highly. Thank you for a lovely time.

Perfect location in the middle of it all and a short walk to everything. Beautiful property which hosts probably the most upscale bar in all of Ghent. I highly recommend this property for location, comfort, and overall ease of seeing Ghent by foot. Beautiful rooms, in room amenities, and attention to detail throughout the hotel decor.

Comfortable rooms in a beautiful historic building right in the center of everything!

The bed is great, the shower is fantastic, the service is friendly and the location is sublime. It was the perfect hotel for a weekend of sightseeing and relaxation.

WE loved the friendly staff and the quaintness of the place. Ghent and The post were the favorite part of my trip. I would certainly come back to visit and stay at this establishment.

Amazing building, beautiful and stylish rooms, perfect location!

Style and attention to detail and quality of staff.

Everything else! Staying at The Post feels like living an episode of Harry Potter!
