A wonderful little gem in the middle of Gent. It's a beautifully decorated hotel that was once a former post office with lovely views.

The Industrial Museum (MIAT) has impressive and some unique objects, as befits the first Manchester of the continent. Vooruit for workers' social solidarity and a bar. Also thought-provoking is the Dr Josef Guislain museum in a still-used asylum (take tram #2).
Note that some tram routes, e.g, #4 to Nord Dokk, no longer operate.

A historic university city.
A historic university city. Preserves its strong Flemish identity.
Has a vibrant city centre and has a 'gothic feel' to it - but, not as strong as Bruges or to Brussels.
Once the main train station has completed its rebuild, it will enhance the city as a more inviting place.
We had dinner in the student sector and found it expensive. It's easy to get around Ghent by public transport. Trams need to be upgraded with easier payment systems and electronic information boards. Compared to Netherlands, Belgium's Tourist Information-points or Centres are not that easily accessible.
I would avoid staying near the main train station during its current building works due to noise and dust. The latter if you're allergic to dust.

Augmented Reality at St Bavo's Caythedral was exceptional.
Augmented Reality at St Bavo's Caythedral was exceptional. Almost everything in the city is walkable from the centre. Cars, trams, bikes and pedestrians share streets which means being careful when you walk. Altogether this was a visit to remember which will bring a smile to my face. Heartily recommended. With over 5000 students at the university the positive atmosphere was almost tangible. And the quality of life looked very good with excellent restaurants at reasonable prices and chic shops with good design on offer.

A beautiful, lively city with many easily accessible sights, concentrated in the centre. Easy communications by train or bus to/from other towns and good public transport within the city. Plenty of shops, restaurants, cafés, and a large pedestrian area. One can easily spend a few hours in one of the many museums on a rainy day.

It can get a bit full of walking tours and people in general - don't go at peak tourist times! Away from the centre there are lovely little bars and places to look at. It's crammed with beautiful art nouveau buildings. It prides itself on its artistic and musical connections - lots of students, and you could hear music practice going on in many places. There are local breweries with many delicious beers.

Two nights would've been better...lots to see.
Two nights would've been better...lots to see. Our favorite Belgium chocolates and waffles of our entire trip were found in Ghent (Gant). We choose to not do the museum or castle tours, but enjoyed the boat tour and walking through the streets, shopping, and people watching. On the weekend, the streets were pretty packed, but more families than we found in Brussels. Do the St. Babo's virtual tour if you visit--so much more information. We didn't a car. Try to get a seat near the canal for an afternoon snack/drink--lovely place to sit and relax.
The location of the hotel is perfect. It's as downtown as it gets and there's a taxi stand next to the hotel. The rooms are very comfortable and the beds have good and comfy pillows! The staff is very friendly. We got a lot of information on Ghent drawn on a map. It also is a cozy place with a beautiful bar and another space to hang out that has an honesty bar. Around the hotel there are lots of restaurants and other food options.
The location of the hotel is really great. Although you are right in the center, it is a relatively quiet area. My favorite hotel in Ghent! As the hotel was full, I was upgraded to a premium room. Oddly enough, I found this room less cozy than the standard rooms I normally have, but still a very pleasant stay. Very friendly staff, from reception to housekeeping. The free wifi was also more than okay.
We had been on a bit of a tour of Belgium by the time we reached Violet Suites so can truly say, this was our favourite of many hotels. The room was beautiful and comfortable and the host offered many treats to guests including complementary breakfast items and snacks. We were made to feel very welcome. The property is just a short walk from the main attractions in Gent, on a nice quiet street.
For me and my wife it was our first time in a hostel. We found the location amazing. in 10 minutes you can reach city center easily by walk. And the staff was very welcoming and friendly. The room was clean, warm and bed confortables.
We also found towels in our room which other people mentioned were to be paid. We loved also kindness of belgium people in general. Overall a great experience.
- Use of the kitchen till 22:00
- A hangout place (with table football/ board games) and a bar
- Lots of storing space in the caravan
- Lots of toilets/ bathrooms
- Friendly staff and easy check in/out
- Breakfast is ok but don't expect too much
- Cheapest option in Ghent if you still want some privacy
- Lots of buses and trams close by (5-7 minutes walking distance)
A stylish hotel that affords guests many in-house amenities (access to a spa, bijoux but ideal gym, gorgeous sauna and relaxation space, pool, as well as a choice of eateries). More than anything, though, is the location minutes from the heart of Ghent and the sanctuary-like rooms. We enjoyed returning here after exploring the city
Location in a quiet neighborhood and close to public transportation. Staff was very friendly and supportive . Carlos welcomed us and helped us with valuable information for Ghent first time travelers . Veronica assisted us by showing us the hotel swimming pool and sauna area.
This place is magnificent. Probably will return already this year. The house was clean and it had everything necessary for a short stay. The area around the camping is one of the best places in Belgium, however it is quite likely that it will be crowded during the summer.
The room was very clean and had everything we needed, including toiletries and a hair dryer. We slept very well and enjoyed the breakfast at the hotel. Although it was close to a train station we did not hear much noise. The city center was about 20 minutes walk away.
Cute clean room in a vintage style hotel, comfortable beds and a rustic style that we enjoyed. Hard to tell whether we appreciated the room or the breakfast more, both were amazing!! Will definitely be back if we come back to Ghent.
Great hotel to visit Ghent, excellent location in the center close to everything, super friendly staff, very nice bar and restaurant with a cool vibe, parking at the hotel is a real plus given the parking situation in Ghent
We came to Ghent only for the night, so needed a room with a strategic location (train station). The hotel is basic, but we didn't need more. We were a bit afraid to hear the trains, but it was actually okay.
Very comfortable hotel close to the center of Ghent. Besides the comfortable bed and automatic light in the bathroom, I liked the table and chairs. Very cosy spot to have the coffee or tea they provided.
Everything was excellent except for the lack of elevator. But it is normal for this kind of buildings in Belgium . Only the people aged over 65 might consider twice before booking.
Location is good for Ghent, short walk into the city centre, nearby to 2 tram stops, 15minutes tram from the train station so easy to visit other Belgium cities
Excellent breakfast.
A few minutes walk from at Pieter's station with frequent rail services in six directions, so within an hour or two to nearly all Belgium.
Ticks all boxes - great hotel located in the center of Ghent. Very good breakfast and very polite team working in the hotel. Well done and see you again!
