Erg mooi, sfeervol en karakteristiek hotel. Zeer nette en Schone kamer. Wel zou de badkamer (douche) gemoderniseerd mogen worden. Bekwaam, voorkomend en vriendelijk personeel. Goed ontbijt. Goede locatie. Hotel is absoluut een aanrader
The hotel is close to center. Good direction far a restaurant. Breakfast beyond expectation. Fabulous. Bathing in a slippery bathtub could be improved.

Friendly and helpful staff in rather Old fashioned facility.
A traditional older European hotel. Staff were exceptionally helpful. Breakfast was great. Very close to shopping and restaurants. Room had cable tv and internet service. Not the most modern hotel, but surprisingly quiet and relaxing.
Nice well placed Hotel in historic building. We stayed in room 3 which was spacious and comfortable. Nice breakfast room with usual continental options as well as eggs cooked how you want them (ie omelette, scrambled, boiled). Friendly and helpful staff. Would stay again if in Ghent
It is like staying in a well appointed 17th century mansion. The fournitures are beautiful, particularly in the dining room. The breakfast is excellent with many choices and service at the table. The facility might be challenging for people with limites mobility because of the old fashioned stairs and bathtub.
This hotel was great! The woman who checked me in was also the breakfast cook (and probably many more things) and she was so sweet and helpful. I loved my small room at the top with it's exposed beams and charm.
The hotel is magnificent. The staff very guest oriented. Like going back in time with this historic gem. The breakfast each day was scrumptious. This was our second time at the Erasmus and look forward to a third when visiting the incredible city of Ghent.

Perfekt läge men något bedagat….
Gammalt hus med gammal inredning. Sängen väldigt sliten. Väldigt trevlig personal. Perfekt läge på en tyst gata men bara någon minuts promenad från st michelskyrkan och massor med restauranger. Ett ok alternativ för en bra peng. Smala, branta trappor upp till rummen. Rent och välstädat men ändå en doft av gamla möbler.

Bijzonder vriendelijk onthaal. Zeer grote, beetje verouderde kamer. Heel lekker en verzorgd ontbijt in een mooie ruimte. Prijs-kwaliteit zeker aan te bevelen.

Prachtig pand met vriendelijk en hulpvaardig personeel. Goed bed. Rustige kamer.
Karakteristiek gebouw.
We vonden de kamer wel wat somber en de badkamer heeft een renovatie nodig.
We only stayed for one night whilst the Christmas market was on. Hotel is very convenient to the centre and trams are a short walk away. The gentleman on reception was lovely and very helpful. Lots of interesting traditional furniture and artefacts in the hotel. Room was large with a modern bathroom.
It is an historic hotel with many antiquities in the décoration. The location is perfect near the canal. It is quiet but there is no escalator and the room was on the 5th floor.
The beakfast was included and we liked the food.
But ithe price for a night is a bit expensive. The owner was a gentleman .
