Property clean and staff excellent. Approach to hotel felt like an industrial estate and view from window the same. Car is necessary to go into town. Lighting in dining room too dark at breakfast, and not enough light in room for reading. Good car parking (surface and underground) at a reasonable rate.

This is a lovely hotel. We stayed as tourists. It is pretty far from the Ghent tourist area. It is beside a very nice football stadium. It appears geared for conferences and events. The staff and hotel are excellent. We ate lunch at the restaurant both days and it was very good and a decent value. The only thing we wish is there was a provided shuttle to the station or tram to avoid the bus.

Unbelievable experience

This was our second time here. We felt so rested the room was so comfortable,. Everything was above expectation and didn't disappoint, I love the bed, slept like babies. My husband and I are tall people and we felt like ants in that bed. It was so damn comfortable and bathroom was so classy with everything you need and everything was of good quality not the dry stuff that leaves your skin itching. The staff was lovely and the restaurant had a lot of options on offer for all meals.one of the best burgers I've had and pheasant breast and the beef stew thingy was yum. Will go back if I can again. Great experience
