The location was great, very close to all attractions, check in and check out was quick. They kept our luggage whole day and the person who did our check in gave us lots of information about Ghent.

Soomadee Belgium

Great location! Room was a bit small but we knew that ahead of time. It was still a great value. The bed was really comfortable and everything was clean.

Gary Netherlands

The proximity to downtown was excellent. It was in the charming part of the ramparts of Gent. what also made it was that the hotel was a new building amongst those centuries old.

Julie Canada

Terrific location, and the staff was wonderfully welcoming. We arrived early and they not only stored our bags, but went and got a cup of coffee for us.

Stephen United States of America

The hotel is very centrally located. It was very clean, and the staff were mostly very friendly. We liked how mask-compliant everyone was. The breakfast was very good each day, and the room was comfortable and very clean.

Karen United States of America

Good Location. Amazing staff - went above and beyond to help with directions and calling a taxi when we needed it. Room AC was great, got very cold. Hotel and room were very clean. Would stay here again.
