We were greeted by a very helpful person at the front desk. We were able to access our room early. The beds were very comfortable and had quality linens.

Perfectly located in the center of Ghent, the 1898 The Post was a great place to stay and see the city and its surroundings. Located near tram lines that can take you around the city and to the train station (Gent-Sint-Pieters) the hotel is within blocks of several of key sights, so you are able to walk and experience historic Ghent right outside your door. The setup of our room utilized the unique building, giving the maximum amount of space even in our smaller room (letter) which was decorated in a way that is photo shoot worthy and tied back to the building's history. Additionally, the staff is amazing and helped us extend our stay as we were able to secure a visit to the Huyghe Brewery (Delirium Tremens) which is only a short train ride away from Ghent.

The Gravensteen or "Castle of the Count" is a deceptively enchanting sight dating back to the Middle Ages. Constructed by Philip of Alsace, the count of Flanders, it's partially surrounded by a moat and beautifully restored, and hosts an interesting museum about the history of prison life.

The Industrial Museum (MIAT) has impressive and some unique objects, as befits the first Manchester of the continent. Vooruit for workers' social solidarity and a bar. Also thought-provoking is the Dr Josef Guislain museum in a still-used asylum (take tram #2).
Note that some tram routes, e.g, #4 to Nord Dokk, no longer operate.

A historic university city.
A historic university city. Preserves its strong Flemish identity.
Has a vibrant city centre and has a 'gothic feel' to it - but, not as strong as Bruges or to Brussels.
Once the main train station has completed its rebuild, it will enhance the city as a more inviting place.
We had dinner in the student sector and found it expensive. It's easy to get around Ghent by public transport. Trams need to be upgraded with easier payment systems and electronic information boards. Compared to Netherlands, Belgium's Tourist Information-points or Centres are not that easily accessible.
I would avoid staying near the main train station during its current building works due to noise and dust. The latter if you're allergic to dust.

Augmented Reality at St Bavo's Caythedral was exceptional.
Augmented Reality at St Bavo's Caythedral was exceptional. Almost everything in the city is walkable from the centre. Cars, trams, bikes and pedestrians share streets which means being careful when you walk. Altogether this was a visit to remember which will bring a smile to my face. Heartily recommended. With over 5000 students at the university the positive atmosphere was almost tangible. And the quality of life looked very good with excellent restaurants at reasonable prices and chic shops with good design on offer.

A beautiful, lively city with many easily accessible sights, concentrated in the centre. Easy communications by train or bus to/from other towns and good public transport within the city. Plenty of shops, restaurants, cafés, and a large pedestrian area. One can easily spend a few hours in one of the many museums on a rainy day.

It can get a bit full of walking tours and people in general - don't go at peak tourist times! Away from the centre there are lovely little bars and places to look at. It's crammed with beautiful art nouveau buildings. It prides itself on its artistic and musical connections - lots of students, and you could hear music practice going on in many places. There are local breweries with many delicious beers.

Two nights would've been better...lots to see.
Two nights would've been better...lots to see. Our favorite Belgium chocolates and waffles of our entire trip were found in Ghent (Gant). We choose to not do the museum or castle tours, but enjoyed the boat tour and walking through the streets, shopping, and people watching. On the weekend, the streets were pretty packed, but more families than we found in Brussels. Do the St. Babo's virtual tour if you visit--so much more information. We didn't a car. Try to get a seat near the canal for an afternoon snack/drink--lovely place to sit and relax.
I really enjoyed the entire atmosphere and scenery. The hotel was in a great location, close to the main tourist attractions and to my local companions. The lobby and the room were both beautifully furnished and decorated, furthermore everything I needed was already in the room. The room was spacious, warm and cozy. The reception staff was friendly and very helpful every time I spoke with them. Great hospitality :) I will definitely recommend this place when someone plans to visit Ghent.
We stayed at Van der Valk in Gent while travelling through Belgium with a 6 months old baby.
We anxiously chose this hotel for its proximity to major roads and the size of the rooms to make the stay comfortable for both us and our daughter.
It was PERFECT!! The staff was accommodating, the facilities were great. We got help with sterilising bottles and we all had a fab night sleep.
Breakfast was a winner!!
Thank you so much!
The building was renovated recently and was well-appointed but also kept a lot of old-world charm. The location was ideal for exploring the old town of Ghent. The room was large and the artwork throughout the hotel was unique and interesting. A salon with comfortable furnishings and an outdoor terrace provided nice communal spaces to relax. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and featured tasty homemade cakes and jams.
We had been on a bit of a tour of Belgium by the time we reached Violet Suites so can truly say, this was our favourite of many hotels. The room was beautiful and comfortable and the host offered many treats to guests including complementary breakfast items and snacks. We were made to feel very welcome. The property is just a short walk from the main attractions in Gent, on a nice quiet street.
Amazing hotel!! Stunning decor, spotless clean! Super friendly staff that went above and beyond to make our stay very special. We got spoiled with a few surprises as we were in the hotel to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I can not recommend enough this hotel. Location was also great! I hope I can come back to Ghent at some point and I would 100% stay again with Pillows Grand Boutique Hotel.
- Use of the kitchen till 22:00
- A hangout place (with table football/ board games) and a bar
- Lots of storing space in the caravan
- Lots of toilets/ bathrooms
- Friendly staff and easy check in/out
- Breakfast is ok but don't expect too much
- Cheapest option in Ghent if you still want some privacy
- Lots of buses and trams close by (5-7 minutes walking distance)
The central location was ideal! The response from staff was great. We arrived by car and needed directions for parking and the staff gave specific details that eased our stress when driving in to Ghent. The street in front of the hotel is currently under construction and we had to park a few blocks away. Because of the staff communication, we arrived easily.
+very atmospheric small hotel, with comfortable rooms.
no elevator - please keep this in mind when choosing. the hotel has 3 floors, the cheapest rooms are on top
good breakfast, for such a hotel, very good choice of food
Pretty clean, they provided a kettle in the room.
pretty quiet and peaceful
tram stop nearby
generally satisfied
A stylish hotel that affords guests many in-house amenities (access to a spa, bijoux but ideal gym, gorgeous sauna and relaxation space, pool, as well as a choice of eateries). More than anything, though, is the location minutes from the heart of Ghent and the sanctuary-like rooms. We enjoyed returning here after exploring the city
The owner leaves below the property and she welcomed us at the check in.
The apartment is amazing, in an excellent position and with beautiful style / furniture.
They offer a garage which is close by (10minutes walk) for a cheap price. We also left our bicycles there and is safe
Would recommend this to anyone visiting Ghent
The hotel is in a good location, not far from the city centre as well as not far from Ghent second railway station (I appreciated the staff suggestions on which stations I should use to visit Bruges and Antwerp, which I did). The room and the bathroom are very large and of good quality. Breakfast options were ok.
Real orchids, large room, generous with bottled water & chocolates, coffee maker, modern & new amenities. Location-5 min from St Pieters station & bus terminal, 3 min from Carrefour Express. Very polite & pleasant staff & extremely obliging. Real family hotel. Will stay again in future visits to Belgium
A wonderful little gem in the middle of Gent. It's a beautifully decorated hotel that was once a former post office with lovely views. The staff was super friendly and nice, comfortable rooms, the cocktail bar was amazing and it was in a very convenient location, walking distance to all major sights.
Rooms are clean and the location is perfect for a day trip to Brugge. It is very near to the Ghent sint pieters station and tram stop is just right at the door step of the hotel which makes it easy to get into the center of Ghent. The staff are very helpful and nice.
The location will blow your mind, you literally step out into one of the most beautiful parts of Ghent, with great cafes and tourist locations all around you. We asked for our two rooms to be close together and they delivered, right next door, it was great.
Boutique and unique, the Boatel is a beautifully well kept floating hotel. Captain Sven is a welcoming host and provided me with a marked up map guide for a scenic circular walk along the canals, bridges and towers of Ghent.
Exellent hotel find. Very modern but homely, staff very good, location good , but only if you are up for a walk in to Ghent. The whole place Smelt amazing!
Just wished there was hanging space in a wardrobe.
Fair price for Ghent, the hotel has a modern style and nice facilities. Parking was great! The location is not in the center, but quite close. The room was small but comfortable enough
