Very spacious room which was very clean with a comfortable bed. The staff on reception were very friendly and welcoming. The hotel is in a wonderful art deco building with lots of beautiful features. Breakfast was mainly continental but there were a couple of hot options (bacon and sausages). The hotel is within a 30-40 minute walk into the centre of Ghent or there is a tram stop located very close to the hotel which you can take. A lovely quiet hotel, in a great location for visiting such a beautiful city !

Lovely interesting hotel. We were able to park just outside the front door. The 2 reception ladies were very friendly and gave us good information for going into the City. Nice big room and very comfortable. Didn’t get a chance to use the pool but it looked love. I hope we are able to visit again and stay longer as this was just a stopover

The staff were extremely helpful and kind. The room was spacious but not very clean. There were a few items that were missed. For example a cobweb that was left in the doorway. Some socks and food left behind by previous guests. However, the hotel is located a short walk from a key tram stop and was near several food places. I would say overall we had a good stay and it worked well for our family.

Superb hotel for a visit to Ghent, especially if you're driving, as it's outside the Low Emission Zone and they have a large car-park. This was the second time I've stayed here and once again I wasn't disappointed. Lovely large, clean room with a good shower. Breakfast is extra, but worth it, as there's a good selection to set you up for the day. The nearest tram stop is 2 minutes walk away, and Sint-Pieters station is a brisk 10 minutes walk, or you can get the tram. Highly recommended.
