This was a lovely hotel! The staff was very friendly and full of recommendations. Everything we wanted to see was within easy walking distance - it felt like we were in the center of everything. We enjoyed hot chocolate at the bar in the mornings and drinks there as a night cap. The beds were some of the comfiest we stayed in on our trip.

Simply gorgeous historic hotel in the heart of Ghent with the feel of a true boutique hotel. Wonderful cocktail bar in the evening though, sadly, no restaurant. Superlative staff at all levels from reception to housekeeping.
