Pros:

Mooie kamers, atrium is een blikvanger en ontbijt is prima verzorgd.

Cons:

Om bij het hotel te komen moet je wel erg goed opletten bij de loop. Hou rechts aan na de afslag ikea en ga helemaal parallel rijden.
Prijzen van de drankjes en hapjes. Ze maken wel gebruik van het feit dat er niet veel horeca in de buurt is.

Dichtbij Expo Vlaanderen
Pros:

Op loopafstand van expo Vlaanderen. Mooie lobby en grand café. Prima fitnessruimte. Aardig personeel.

Cons:

Parkeren kost best wat. Dik dekbed, veel te warm. Hierdoor niet goed geslapen

Great hotel, nice spacious room and lovely staff.
Pros:

Lots of parking with electric charging, and good location close to the main roads.
The staff were on point, really friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The food prices were a little bit on the expensive side. Nothing to do with the hotel, but the tram service wasn’t working so made getting into town a bit more challenging.

Pros:

Wir hatten ein sehr großes schönes Familienzimmer mit Fenstern zum überdachten Innenhof. Alles neu und sehr sauber.

Cons:

Ich bin kein Fan von Klimaanlagen. Daher war es für mich nicht so toll, dass man die Fenster nicht öffnen konnte. Das war aber vorher abzusehen und bei der Hitze wiederum für den Rest der Familie angenehem ;)

Although a ways out of the centre of Ghent good bus connection, the tram stop is out of service ATM

Cons:

Pros:

Очень красивый отель, чистое белье, просторные номера, любезный персонал. Нам на семью дали две комнаты за стенкой, которые были соединены дверями, которые при желании можно было открыть или закрыть. Очень удобно с детьми. Плюс в номерах были кофемашины, холодильник. Очень хорошо все. Цена по сравнению с другими отелями в выходные была самая адекватная, но тоже недешевая.

Cons:

Расстояние от центра 4,2 км. Далековато. На убере 25 евро, на автобусе и трамвае 3 евро с человека и ехать минут 30-40.

Great stopover with access to Ghent. Amazing family rooms!
Pros:

Brilliant hotel. Impressive inside, one of the best family rooms we've ever stayed in! Easy access to the tram into Ghent. Staff were really good. Excellent stay.

Cons:

Breakfast was a little expensive and often ran low and was slow to be replenished (was nice though!). It can be tricky to get to...we went round the ring road 3 times!
