Overall is great. But the entrance is a little away from the main road if you are with your big luggage that could be tough due the the steps and rough paving. Another small issue is the toilet, there is no ventilation in the toilet so the odour could trapped inside for a while.

The location is very convenient. It is within walking distance to the attractions. It is a very unique hotel renovated from the old post office. The breakfast is great. It is a worthwhile experience and adds to the charming and dreamy feeling of Ghent.

The location of the hotel is around all the attractions, and the transportation is super convenient. I will definitely consider staying again next time I travel! The experience of paying for additional breakfast is also very good, there are many types of food, and the atmosphere of the restaurant is perfect!

It’s the best hotel by far. Great location with a supermarket right below and a 2-minute walking distance to a train station. Lovely view and beautiful hotel. Worth every penny.

The hotel is in a historic building and centrally located in Ghent. It is walkable to all major sightseeing destinations. Our room has a beautiful view of St Nicholas Church, and the square in front. The room was quite stylishly decorated with high ceiling but the. Shower and wash basin are on the upper level. Maybe inconvenient for some people. At least the toilet is on the same level as the entrance. My room was a bit small, only suitable to have two cabin size luggage opened at the same time. Overall it is a lovely hotel and really added to our two days stay in Ghent.
