The room we stayed in was nice. The breakfast was GREAT! The hotel is 20mins tram ride away from city centre. There is an IKEA opposite the hotel. We had dinner in city centre. Ghent is so beautiful!! The hotel has its own parking, you need to pay a fee.

We (2 adults and 2 children) stayed in the hotels for 2 nights visiting Brugge and Gent. The hotel is located inext to IKEA. The road around the area is quite confusing and it took some time to get use to by car. The hotel is fine. The room is clean, though a bit tight for 4 of us. The... More

From the moment of arrival on the waste ground that the hotel has the nerve to call a carpark and charge for its use the overall impression is poor. The hotel reception staff are polite and the reception and restaurant/bar area look wonderful - they are the best bit of the hotel. Now go to the rooms which seem dark,... More

We stayed here during the Gentse Festen and it was a great choice. It was far from the "madness" in the city but close enough to reach by tram. During the festival there are trams all day and at 1 am they were leaving every 2-3 mins. It takes about 15 mins to reach the center of Ghent and the... More

I stayed on business for 2 nights and appreciated everything about the place. Clearly it's a purpose built, functional hotel that sees a lot of traffic, so it wasn't quite perfect in every way eg bathroom a bit worn. That said it's an easy tram ride to town and all the things that matter were very good - the beds,... More

Very good hotel outskirted from the city of Gent but actually only 20mn tram from the City-centre. Good property, good bedding, excellent breakfast. The staff is very helpful. This hotel is a good hotel part of chain for standard quality and OK for Business and Leisure. You won't be disappointed.
