"Excellent location, lovely room for a reasonable price. Walking distance from the main train station. Fantastic stay."

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Very nice hotel... only small issue, abrupt check in service. Person at check out was far friendlier and more helpful."

1898 The Post & Porter's house

8/10 Good

"We did not like the shower and sink on the 2nd floor of our hotel room. If you used the toilet you had to go upstairs to wash your hands. Room was tight!!! But so beautiful!! Bed was hard. Perfect location!"

B&B HOTEL Gent Centrum

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean with nice decor as was Reception. In Reception there was a water machine and a tea/coffee machine which was great. The hotel was central in the town - great location. Lots of shops and beautiful buildings. It was about half an hour walk to the main station (went to Bruges for the day from here) we enjoyed the walk as crossed many canals, but you could take a bus/tram to the station. Would definitely stay here again."

ibis budget Gent Centrum Dampoort

10/10 Excellent

"An excellent hotel. The staff were unfailingly helpful, the facilities excellent and all areas of the place sparkling clean. The room and bathroom were well designed, not large but there was adequate space. The room looked out onto a fairly busy road but there must have been superb soundproofing because the traffic noise was barely a murmur in the room."
