B&B HOTEL Gent Centrum
The hotel was right in the middle of the city which was excellent. It’s a tram ride from the station or a 30 minute walk. The booking in was easy, staff lovely and the room perfect.

ibis Gent Centrum St-Baafs Kathedraal
The receptiion staff and the lady behind the bar were all excellent, however our cleaner was very poor. The location is superb and can't be bettered. The underground 12 space car park insanely tight.
