The location was perfect - in a quiet area but a few minutes walk from the buzzing city centre. The property had been sympathetically renovated and we loved it's quirkyness. The little balcony on the top floor was just brilliant!

Lynne United Kingdom

Very well designed place, comfortable for families and couples alike. The attention to detail was apparent on every space of the house. The street is peaceful and the location excellent!

Marina Brazil

Beautiful house with great amenities in a central location. The beds were very comfortable. The kitchen is a little dark due to the outside plants, but comfortable and very well equipped.

Laura Netherlands

The house is lovely and set in a quiet residential area, that is close enough to walk into the city centre to explore. The house has everything we needed ti be able to cook breakfast before heading out.

Chris United Kingdom

Keypad entry system is great as this meant that any of our group staying there could come and go without the need for passing a set of keys around. Bedrooms are a good size and the ground floor kitchen/dining room made for a nice place to sit and have a few drinks. The house is well equipped with everything you could need for pleasant stay. Location is very good, being just five minutes walk from the main attractions in the city and with plenty of bars and restaurants close by too. Overall, highly recommended.

De locatie. Heerlijke bedden voor een goede nachtrust. Voor onze baby stond er ook een babybedje klaar!. Een ruim breed keuken inventaris was aanwezig. Mooi pand van binnen en buiten.

Miranda Netherlands

Alles was werkelijk top. Het was het mooiste huisje waar ik ooit ben geweest. De locatie was goed, het huisje mooi en prachtig gerenoveerd, de host was heel erg meedenkend, reageerde snel en was vriendelijk en alles was heel schoon. We komen graag nog een keer terug. Alleen voor mensen slecht ter been is het geen aanrader vanwege de smalle trappen.

Mary Netherlands

Prachtig huis! Met mooie oude details. We hebben samen met mijn (schoon)zussen en mijn moeder een heerlijk weekend gehad. Ideale locatie, op een paar minuten loopafstand van het centrum en een bakker op 150 meter van het huis. Marie is gastvrij, vriendelijk en reageert snel op vragen via de mail. We gaan zeker nog een keer terug!

Loes Netherlands

prachtig en uniek huis, op een mooie locatie. Hoe langer je in het huis bent, hoe meer je ziet! Ontzettend knus en origineel!

Lisette Netherlands

Stijlvol verblijf op een goede locatie. De host is erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam.

Nathalie Marie Verbeke
A green & sustainable guesthouse located in the picturesque Prinsenhof in Ghent. The biggest eye-catcher is the original old staircase, which might even date from 1650. Be aware: the very steep stairs might not be ideal for elders and children. Friday ensures a meaningful stay in a unique and authentic setting. It responds to the needs of contemporary city trippers and provides everything you need for an extraordinary stay!
Owned by Nathalie Marie Verbeke - a native of the city - and restored by Rearch Architects, the three story home is famous for its bronze statue on the corner called ‘Het Breistertje’, which means ‘The Knitster.’
Friday's location combines the best of both worlds: the residential area of the Prinsenhof is an oasis of serenity. At the same time, everything is within reach and the Prinsenhof is just a stone's throw away from the Castle of the Counts and the bustling city centre of Ghent.
