Pleasant, relaxing stay.
Pros:

The location is very central with plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby. The room was spacious with a wide desk to work with your laptop. The breakfast was excellent, large selection and good quality.

Cons:

The wifi was a bit on and off. A small closet to place clothes inside would have been nice. Also, it would be good to have just a couple of bathroom cotton goods.

Pros:

A top-tier hotel that is environmentally conscious and uncompromising in quality. As your slogan says, I entered your hotel as a customer, but you gained a friend.

Quite adequate facilities.

Pros:

La posizione è centrale, buona la colazione

Cons:

Avevo una camera al quinto piano con una piccola finestra ricavata nel tetto, alla notte c’era un locale in strada dove la gente faceva molto rumore fine alle 5 del mattino. E’ stato molto difficile dormire anche con la finestra chiusa. Ho chiesto alla reception se c’era una stanza in un’altra posizione e mi hanno dato dei tappi per le orecchie, non molto utili anche perché non abituato. Il rapporto qualità/prezzo molto basso. Stanze spartane e colazione accettabile per circa 200 euro a notte

Relatief duur hotel. € 250,00 p/n incl. Ontbijt, parkeergarage en tax.
Pros:

De ligging, midden in het oude centrum.

Cons:

De bereikbaarheid, toegang tot hotel is afgesloten met een slagboom die niet door het hotel bediend kan worden. Gasten zijn genoodzaakt door een voetgangersgebied te rijden wat na 11.00 uur verboden is. Tip: voer straatnaam Charles de Beriotstraat in op de navigatie en NIET Alphons Smetsplein 7.

Een geweldig fijn verblijf!
Pros:

De locatie was fijn, overal dichtbij. Vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel en een voortreffelijk ontbijt. De bedden waren heel goed met schoon en fris beddengoed en een licht dekbed van echte dons i.p.v. een veel te warm dik synthetisch dekbed. Ook een prima badkamer met fijne regendouche.
Het hotel is duurzaam bezig. Schoonmaak kamer is op verzoek en bij het ontbijt geen plastic verpakkingen van o.a. broodbeleg.

Cons:

Wij hadden een rustige kamer aan de achterkant en weten niet hoe een kamer aan de drukkere voorkant met eetgelegenheden en terrassen is.
De vloerbedekking moet hier en daar vernieuwd worden en sommige stoelbekleding ook, alhoewel het ons niet echt heeft gestoord.

Pros:

TOP LOKATIE
HEEL VRIENDELIJK PERSONEEL
SUPER BEDDEN
PARKING ONDER HET HOTEL

Cons:

Aanduiding van de parking
Google geeft parkingplaats aan maar kan langs de slagboom niet bereikt worden.
Men moet voor het hotel doorrijden om op de parking te geraken.
