We had a great stay! Room was spacious and a short walk to some great restaurants. Although our room had air conditioning, it got very hot at night. Breakfast buffet provided a big selection of food options and good coffee. Would definitely return but maybe not in the summer!

Room was very large with loft space to fit our whole family. Temperature cooled so lack of air conditioning was not an issue. Unique building well adapted as a hotel. Staff were very nice.

It was a fun little quirky place to rest at night. If you don't mind sharing the toilets and showers, go for it. Ita not a big deal to be fair. Super close to the canal and all the main parts of Ghent. Would definitely recommend! Thanks for the hospitality!

Great Value

Lovely friendly helpful staff. Great value room compared to other places nearby. The window above the room door let light in when other guests walked by the rooms and the automatic light switched on, but this was very infrequent and otherwise no complaints. Would stay here again!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was spacious and very new. The bathroom had a window that wouldn’t stay open. It seemed a little farther than expected from the sites. We would have liked to have seen more history and pictures of the building. The room number named a person, however it didn’t let you know anything about them. The room we were in was not accessible by an elevator, which was fine for us. Seems like they should ask that when booking. Renovations well done.

Lovely hotel. Great location to transport links and the historical centre. Staff were helpful, and the bed was comfy. However, it was 2 singles pushed together, so be prepared to fall down the middle if you are like me and wriggle in your sleep.

Quirky historic hotel in a very quiet part of the city, but just a few minutes walk from the centre. Great staff, lovely breakfast. Well appointed room and bathroom. Only slight criticism is that the double bed was two singles pushed together and they were very "mobile" so would drift apart easily!
