Hotels near Restaurant Horseele in Ghent

The location of the hotel is excellent, very close to the main attractions, there are many tram stations nearby, and the commercial online stores are quite complete. The only dissatisfaction is: I booked a double room, and the result was a big bed. This was a bit embarrassing. In addition, the hotel actually had to charge an additional fee for luggage storage (there is a special luggage room). This is completely different from the domestic one. Breakfast is relatively simple, after eating once, I changed it to eat in the surrounding small shops.

We have just spent two nights at this hotel and the location is ideal for walking or cycling into the centre of Ghent. The rooms are compact but functional for a short stay, we had the two single beds (rather than a double bed) as you get more space. Breakfast is good with a reasonable choice. Car parking is underground so your car will be safe although it is 14 euros per night. We hired bikes for 10 euros each and cycled all over Ghent, just be careful of the trams and tram lines. The staff at the front desk were very helpful. we would happily stay here again if we visit Ghent again in the future.

Vriendelijke ontvangst. De ligging is heel goed. Kamer voor de prijs die wij betaald hebben nog net oké. (63 euro voor 2) De kamer had een onfrisse geur door de afloop. (Putjesgeur) Geen minibar zoals beschreven. WIFI werkte niet. Ontbijt van 8 tot 10 waarbij om 9 uur spek en eieren en pistolets op waren. Ontbijtruimte was niet proper. Koffiemachine, microgolfoven, tafellaken waar het eten op stond waren vies. Overal stof en vuiligheid. Veel dingen stuk....kasten die uit elkaar hangen, gaten in de muur,bespoten die los staan, sigarettenpeuken die rondslingeren, .... Deur waar alles van was en producten opgeborgen stond stond open, wat was dat? Gewoonweg onverzorgd. Electriciteit uitgevallen rond middernacht. Zijn ze komen oplossen na gebeld te hebben. Een uur later zit de rest van het hotel zonder stroom. Een mooi gebouw maar er zit geen ziel in. Laat je niet verblinden door de foto's. Dit hotel is dringend toe aan renovatie en een grote schoonmaakbeurt.

I had a very bad experience with this hostel, I arrived and it was imediately clear that they are not focused at all on having a clean space. They gave me sheets to make my own bed and the sheets had stains on them, as well as the covers in the bedroom, which did not seem clean at all. The location is excellent but minimum requirements in terms of cleaning are not met. Furthermore, there is at least one floor with no bathroom, which means you need to change floors if you ever want to go to the toilet. I do not recommend it at all. I ended up checking out on the same day of check in and went to another place (basically, paid twice for accomodation). When I explained the situation and asked for a refund I received a reply stating that they stand by the quality of their product, which is a bit shocking considering I sent a photo of the dirty sheets and did not even receive an apology.

The hotel offers spacious rooms with minimalistic design, superb services and friendly staff. The hotel is usually busy, so popular. We indulged in the foods and drinks offered by the nice restaurant and enjoyed a spacious room with all tailored amenities. Any issue can be addressed with their responsive staff!

When it comes to thinking of places to visit in Belgium, the town of Aalter in East Flanders, probably isn't the first place to spring to mind. Granted it doesn't have the charm of the Belgian coast, or the bustling hubbub of the larger, more tourist-oriented attractions, but its central location halfway between the cities of Gent and Brugge make it an great place from which to explore. The 4-star Best Western Hotel Orchidee in the center of Aalter provides an ideal base where you can plan your explorations. Aalter train station is a 15 minute walk away, and from there you can catch one of the regular trains to Gent or Brugge, with either journey taking half an hour. Alternatively, as the E40 motorway is just a few hundred meters from the hotel, both cities are accessible by car in around 20 minutes. I stayed at Hotel Orchidee for 3 nights just after Easter, 2022. The earliest check in is 2pm, and so this was the time I designated upon booking. (A word of caution for those hoping for a late check in. The reception desk closes at 11pm.) I arrived at the hotel at 2:05pm and was greeted by Piet, the hotel manager, who told me that my room would be ready in 10 minutes. There are several facets that I would expect from front of house staff - especially the manager - of a 4-star hotel. One of these is that they should be well groomed, besuited preferably, but nevertheless tidy in appearance. After all, they represent the hotel, a guest's first impression of what they might expect; and as the saying goes ”You don't get a second chance to make a first impression.” My first impression of Piet was that he was someone for whom sartorial elegance was not a phrase he was familiar with, with one too many buttons open on his creased shirt and apparent indecision on whether said shirt should be tucked in his trousers or not. Still he was amiable enough and pointed to the spacious, well-appointed bar off to the right of reception, where I could wait for my room. Whilst waiting, in addition to noting that the bar staff were better attired than the manager, I had time to peruse the menu, and discovered that a hungry guest could choose from crisps, nuts, a plate of cheese and salami, or a Croque Monsieur. Not exactly what I would expect from a 4-star hotel kitchen. I would later discover that the reason for this limited dining experience is due to the fact that the hotel does not employ a chef. Piet the manager is apparently chief, cook, and bottle washer, which probably explains why room service is not offered. My room was on the second floor overlooking the car park (which incidentally provides free parking, except on Saturdays when the Farmers Market is held), and no fewer than six bottle banks that are almost constantly in use throughout the day. If, like 1970s singer-songwriter Nick Lowe you ”love the sound of breaking glass”, this will make you feel right at home, otherwise it's somewhat irksome. The room was spacious enough, clean, with modern decor and

A little disappointed with the decor, quite run down and desperate for a refurbishment staff on the other hand were excellent and very attentive. Unfortunately being of low cost, attracts some of the wrong sort of clientele, too! We suffered with noisy people partying until 2am when we finally decided enough was enough and tried ringing reception, phone didn’t work, so personal visit to reception sorted the issue. Non-smoking rooms, stunk of smoke. Otherwise clean and reasonable beds. Breakfast was ok.

Great hotel in a great location, the best way to travel in Belgium is by train, this hotel is a 300 meter walk from the main train station, the road down to the centre of town is lined with nice restaurants and cafes and a very pleasant walk, alternatively there is a Tram right outside the door. We had a small problem with one of our friends and the hotel went out of their way to help us out, they also have a great breakfast room on the 6th floor with views out over the city. The Hotel staff are also very good, making sure you have what you need in your room.

Very nice hotel in the centre of Gent. Building in classical style with modern elements. Great breakfast buffet with careful service. Check-in was ok, check-in time at 15:00 unfortunately was not complied with. But we have been pleasantly upgraded, so waiting has been worth it. Most beautiful are the rooms with balcony to the indoor courtyard. The restaurant had closed. The drinks in the indoor courtyard were very good, the service in the evening a little slow. You are quickly walking from the hotel in the historic city centre. Gym and pool small but maintained. A great hotel in general.

Leuke ambiance, kamer was wel erg klein als luxe kamer (begane grond) en we hadden een terras uitkijkend op grof vuil op de binnenplaats ( ook zaten er nog sigaretten in de asbak buiten ) Gezien de tijd van het jaar was het uitzicht voor ons geen probleem . Misschien tip voor hotel om afval achter een schutting te plaatsen . Kamer was ook best koud , volgende keer nemen we pantoffels mee. Heerlijke douche , mooie badkamer. Heel vriendelijk personeel. Leuke aankleding , heilige hoekjes met een knipoog. Uitstekend ontbijt in mooie zaal, erg uitgebreid. Ook in de ontbijtzaal was het was fris, vooral aan de raam kant maar goed je kan je er op kleden.Ligging is perfect !!! Een aanrader ondanks wat puntjes!
