Gand sous la pluie mais perçue comme ensoleillée!
Pros:

Les deux réceptionnistes sont des personnes particulièrement avenantes et soucieuses du bien-être des clients. Merci à eux! L'hôtel est idéalement situé à proximité des lieux historiques. Le bus permet de garer sa voiture sur une ère de parking gratuite en périphérie et de rejoindre le centre même de la ville de façon assez pratique et rapide. Le prix des parkings (de la ville et de l'hôtel) est exorbitant.

Pros:

Hadden een standaard kamer gereserveerd maar bij aankomst kregen we een luxe kamer zonder meer onkosten, parkeerplaats bij hotel en perfecte locatie voor Gent te verkennen. Hartje centrum.
Ontbijt was perfect al was aanwezig. Zeer goed verblijf gehad .
