Voldoende voor kort verblijf als de verwarming werkt.
Pros:

Personeel vriendelijk.
Ontbijt over het algemeen verse produkten, behalve confituren in verpakking.
Gratis parking voor de deur.
Badkamer en kamer verwarming werkte niet.

Cons:

Na melding van de eerste nacht dat verwarming op de kamer niet werkte zou er iemand langskomen, maar dat is niet gebeurd. Heel weekend zonder verwarming zowel kamer als badkamer verbleven.
Kamer voor een deel pikdonker mits de ramen niet over de hele kamer verlicht.

Pros:

L'accoglienza. La struttura davvero splendida sia come struttura che come arredamento. Il giardino.

Cons:

Non è vicinissima al centro ed è necessario usare il tram la cui fermata, però, è a due passi.

Oké
Pros:

Vriendelijk personeel bij Front Office, gratis parkeren op eigen terrein, authentiek hotel, grote kamer.

Cons:

Wanneer je op de eerste verdieping slaapt is het erg gehorig van de kamers boven je. Over het algemeen is het hotel erg gehorig omdat het een oud pandje is. De douche bevatte zoveel kalk dat de douche kop voor de helft water gaf. Wel iets om aan te doen. Ontbijt was redelijk matig voor de prijs.

Se dovessi tornare in Belgio ripeterei l'esperienza all'Hotel Orion di Gand.
Pros:

Il personale è gentile e competente, sollecito nel rispondere ad ogni tipo di informazione. La colazione è ottima, molto varia e curata ed il personale è attento a soddisfare qualunque preferenza.
Bello aspettare il tramonto sulla terrazza e guardare gli alti pini dalla camera da letto prima di addormentarmi.

Perfect stay in Ghent
Pros:

The property is in a quiet district which we liked, but only a short tram ride from all the tourist sites in the city centre. The hotel is conveniently located near a tram stop, and a fairly short walk from the train station.

Our family room was spacious, and air conditioned, and the beds were very comfy. Having our room situated next door to the swimming pool was ideal, and our children were very appreciative of this. The staff kindly allowed us access to swim in the pool whenever it was not in private use, which meant that on our arrival in a heat wave, we were able to go swimming and cool off in the afternoon.

Breakfast was delicious and there were plenty of options, to keep us full on our departure day.

I would not hesitate to book here on a return trip to Ghent.

Cons:

Nothing
