The location is the best. The hotel is comfortable nothing negative to say. The young lady employee at the breakfast room was very helpful giving us useful touristic information I could not get at the front desk.
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.
The hotel was located a short walk from the castle on a pretty cobbled street with shops and restaurants typical of Ghent. The bed was really comfortable, the room spacious and the bathroom well appointed with a good shower. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful and a good continental breakfast was provided.
Excellent staff who were very welcoming, a great location and a really nice room. One of the most comfortable beds i have ever slept in. Definitely hope to be back again

Parking is a challenge but we knew this prior to our arrival. Hotel staff did a great job communicating with us prior to our arrival. The area around the hotel is shutdown to vehicle traffic mid to late July due to 10 day music festival (fun time - great energy).
AC unit was not working properly but windows open - not a big concern.
Bed extremely comfortable.
Room was clean - nicely done.
Would stay again.

Great location
Very clean room with excellent staff and a great location close to all the sites. Would definitely recommend:
The hotel was comfortable and catered for our needs. The family really enjoyed it. The prime location was ideal for the festivities. Reception staff were very helpful especially with parking
My husband and I had a wonderful 3 night stay at this hotel. Our room was clean, the bed comfortable and the views fantastic. All the staff were welcoming and helpful. We would not hesitate to stay here again and would highly recommend the hotel to others.
Centrally located in the nicest part of central Ghent, in a nice old building. Friendly staff.

The room was way too expensive and I didn't even get breakfast with it. You can find better deals. I didn't even get Canal view. The room was nice and clean. But you can get that for much less price in town. It was annoying that every five minutes the light would go off if you're not moving around. You have to get up and turn the light on. They did have some lights by the bed, but they were not as bright.
Ok so there are two different buildings for this hotel and you will have totally different experiences depending on if you are in the from historic building with elegant rooms and facing the castle or if you have to go all the way to the back to that scary ugly building that in no way feels like you are in Brugge. Good luck we where first put in back and I went to desk and asked and they put us in main building with gorgeous room and perfect view of castle from our window.
The room was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was very nice and fresh with many choices. The establishment was located in the center and very well maintained.
