We were on the 3rd floor, room 3D, and no lift so we decided to leave our luggage in the car, 6 flights of stairs are no fun when youre tired after a long journey but thats what happens in these old buildings so im not complaining The shower cubicle is ancient and definately needs replacing, and the shower tray is incredibly slippery and we just avoided falling, so a rubber shower mat is essential, we have one at home for exactly this reason

Fairly central location, tram stop is 1 minute away and cost 2 euros into Ghent, secure car parking but possibly only for 3 to 4 cars, breakfast was typical but really nice, lovely old building with lots of original features, receptionist was really helpful, a kettle in the room is so useful too, two pillows that are really soft meant a great nights sleep

The hotel is beautiful old world charm. Location is outside city centre about 15 min walk or tram stop 100m away. Not much around but quite. Room was good size but shower had mouldy grout.

It is maybe a little tired in places but that did not in anyway spoil our stay.

Friendly staff. Large rooms. Comfortable bed. Great bath with jacuzzi. Nice buffet breakfast We arrived during an unlikely cold spell and the lady on reception provided us with another duvet.

However, our room was very tired - all it would need is a fresh coat of paint on the walls. I understand the decore is supposed to be a shabby chic. However, there were stains on the walls by the bed. Also, the floor creaked - it made my husband & I nervous about walking about our room as we didn't want to disturb the people in the room below.

The location is superb, breakfast & staff were superb. My husband & I love the quaintness of this hotel it is like stepping back in time.

The shower didn’t drain

Loved the ‘old world’ charm with all the lovely antique furniture and decor. It was in a quiet location and the staff was very friendly and informative The breakfast was excellent.

It was due for a renovation and a deep clean in nooks and cranny’s. But overal I liked it.

Very cute breakfast and very well done. The rooms are maybe not so very clean but i like the look of it. Lovely experience

Lovely old building with charming rooms

Stayed in March 2024

Some things were very old, such as the the wooden windowframe in the bathroom showing signs of rotting and mould, squeeky floors and the old mattrass on the bed.

Beautiful building, old style, gorgeous furniture, look and feel. Friendly and helpful staff, breakfast buffet was extensive

Lovely hotel. Fantastic breakfast. Very easy (1 minute walk to the stop) to get a tram either into 'old' Gent or out to the railway station.

Much as it is a lovely hotel (the music playing in the reception and breakfast background was wonderful!) we found the hotel lacking "cosiness". the wooden floor boards in the bedrooms didnt add any warmth to the room and were quite noisy. the "area to sit and relax" was just a few chairs around a table - and again not really nice cosy ones, so there wasnt anywhere to sit apart from on the bed.

The breakfast was very nice, albeit it was the same every day though. Nice music playing in the background. The location was excellent - far enough away from hustle and bustle but close enough to cycle in to the centre quickly. The bed was a lovely size.

Location was excellent staff welcoming

All minor issues which would not stop me from staying again: Lack of heating in communal area (no lounge only hall which was beautiful but freezing). Breakfast items often ran out and had to ask for top ups of many items, water not replaced in room, musty smell in bedroom (loft room).

Beautiful hotel, comfy bed, excellent quality of breakfast, lovely staff. Fabulous location.

it's an oldie style house, therefore the floors will squeak, the neighbors will be heard, the heating will be slow to act. I can imagine someone booking this and complain. My wife liked it and I'm not complaining :)

Fast check in, charming old style house with high ceilings & broad hallways, excellent breakfast, parking available - but you need to tell upfront, 5 min walk to city center, welcoming & helpful staff

Stayed in December 2023

No bad experience at all.

Located near the city centre, all is at walking distance (or public transport). You don't need your car! Very cool hotel, charming as it says. The staff is very friendly and willing to help you anytime.

No lift but that’s to be expected considering its age.

A quaint original hotel with loads of charm. Walking distance to town centre.

Nothing, maybe some maintenance work to do but it was so cool!

Lots of stairs if your room is up at the top, with no lift. We had not anticipated that my wife's knees were bad, but taken slowly there was no problem!

Superb buffet breakfast. Excellent location - easy to walk into Ghent centre. Very helpful staff and personal garage parking near hotel.
