Is a very nice hotel. Definitely an older one but is well kept up. The location was fabulous. It’s diagonal to the Gravensteen castle. Very short, walk to canals and all the eatery places as well as tourist attractions. Check in staff were extremely helpful.

Centrally located 3 star

Very central Ghent hotel. Receptionist was very welcoming. Small bar area is cool. Rooms are big with high ceilings. Not the quietest location as trams pass right outside the hotel from 6am.

It was ok. Had a very bad first night of sleep as the radiator was making noises throughout the night. It woke me up a few times so I have decided to turn it off the next night. The room was small and outdated but the location excellent.

This hotel is right across the street from Gravensteen Castle (we looked right out at the castle from our window!) and very conveniently located on a tram stop right in the center of town. The rooms were very clean and well-organized with extensive storage space, very comfortable beds, and rain showers in the updated bathrooms. Common areas were clean and pretty, and the bar was open 24 hours (most of the pubs in the area closed at 11, so this was a nice feature if you're looking for a nightcap.) The desk staff was efficient and polite.

Great choice for us

Excellent location, very clean, modern bathroom, great service from the female receptionist. Very noisy street outside room 55 but we are not light sleepers so that didn’t bother us but worth asking if you are not able to sleep with noise.

The location of this hotel is amazing! We had a very spacious room and bathroom so rrally happy with that. However as its an old building there was no air con! I did ask for a fan and thankfully they had one so this got us through. Our room was facing the busy street so if we were to book again i would request a room not facing this street.

Great hotel and a great town.

Exceeded our expectation. Didn’t regret choosing to live in the old town at Ghent. (Not very touristy. More authentic and chill experience in a Game of Throne like medieval town.) Night walk in the old town is a must. So the location is superb. The room is very beautiful. Staff is very warm and helpful. We had great chat with the young lad David. We can feel his enthusiasm and love to his home town. They also recommended great restaurants. We had one of the best meal in my ten years living in Europe. Will definitely visit and stay here again.

I chose one of the cheaper rooms - facilities may be better in other categories. Lovely buiding, fab location and friendly staff. No air-con and it was warm. Very noisy outside with window open. Aircon was being installed when I was there and windows were measured for new sound proof fittings. So things may improve. I did have to make a complaint about something and staff dealt with it very well. Despite tram works, relatively easy to get to hotel from train station. Do check status but as of July 2024 it was T1 to Zuid, then change platform for T2 to Gravesteen
