Located in the Flemish region of Belgium, the beautiful medieval city of Ghent is not only a city of history, but also a romantic place
to visit. The city is full of hidden historical, cultural and culinary gems that you can easily discover.
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.
Part of the UNESCO World Heritage list, the Belfry of Ghent is a medieval tower overlooking the Old Town centre. Saint Bavo Cathedral and Saint Nicholas' Church are the city's other two towers, with St. Nicholas' Church being one of the oldest landmarks in Ghent (known as Gent in Flemish).
Enjoy a relaxing walk in the picturesque medieval streets and stop at one of the charming traditional restaurants for Belgium beer and a classic Flemish meat stew with French fries. Local delicacies include the popular Belgium chocolate and the purple jelly-filled candies called the 'noses'.
Antwerp International Airport is 52 km away, while Brussels Airport is 55 km. Just book your hotel, guest house, apartment, or B&B through Booking.com and discover everything this stunning city has to offer.

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.

Ghent seems to be something of a poor relation to the more famous Bruges. However, I found Ghent to be a thoroughly enjoyable place to visit and certainly lest touristy than Bruges. It's a very walkable city (to be fair, so is Bruges, but Ghent is more compact) which I really enjoy and value.
The local tourist authorities in Ghent have done a superb job with their excellent Visitors' Guide Book (free and printed in colour in the main European languages as well as English) which has a map showing the location of all the main points of interest, together with a succinct explanation of each. I found noting comparable in either Brussels or Bruges.
On my last morning before leaving for Bruges, I visited the very modern city library which was (for me) an enjoyable surprise, particularly after all the much more traditional historical sites. Try not to miss it and try to find time to step inside for a while!

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.
Superbly situated for exploring Ghent on foot (and Ghent is well worth exploring). Very modern and comfortable, very professionally run, highly competent and very helpful staff. Very good and easily accessible parking facilities which aren't that common in hotels in this type of location (be sure to follow the hotel's advice and register your car in advance to legally access the city centre).We had a flat tyre on our day of departure, and the manager could not have been more helpful in getting it sorted for us. Thank you, sir!
Cindy is a fantastic host - so friendly and helpful. The property is a real gem - beautifully restored and every single detail well thought through. Breakfasts were amazing with far more than we could eat and a great selection of everything from eggs to bread, home made jams, fruit and even cake! The location was perfect - quiet and off the beaten track with parking but only a 20 minute bus ride into Ghent from the end of the road or a 30 minute walk. And the sauna was a real bonus.
What a wonderful surprise to walk into this huge apartment. My kids all had their own space and loved how large it was. SO MUCH SPACE! The kitchen was great, the tv room was great and if it was warmer the outside the patio would have been great! I would have loved to stay for longer- nothing better than walking out the door right into the city. We loved this place the most in our Belgium trip!
The hotel is extremely beautiful and centrally located. The staff was some of the best we encountered in both Belgium and France. Breakfast was absolutely the best, there were so many options and it was all delicious. We parked in a parking garage nearby that the hotel staff recommended. It was easy and there were plenty of spaces available. This was our favorite hotel on the entire trip.
Amazing hotel with perfect location in beautiful Ghent. Very friendly and professional staff, you feel welcome straight away. Spacious, modern, but cosy, rooms. Great working airconditioning and many decent roomservice options 5* quality imho. I don't think you find better in Ghent, especially for this price! Will book again if I visit this beautiful city again.
The hotel building and its decoration are outstanding and could easily come out of a decoration magazine, lot of well-thought details with all the necessary toiletries including cotton bud & pads.
The neighborhood is ideal close to the historic centre of Ghent but within a more vibing neighborhood gathering favorite of locals restaurants & bars.
The hotel is great. The room is very comfortable and clean. Although Ghent is a small city and you can do everything by foot wherever you stay, the hotel is in front of the Gravensteen castle. The location is really great and the surrounding area is just beautiful.
Breakfast was good, with many options and good quality food.
I'd go back there.
+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
Cute little nicely decorated hotel. Breakfast is homemade by the owners. It tasted very good. Only a nice walk of 20+- min away from the city center of a beautiful city. The parking lot is small but there are al lot of possible parking spots surrounding the hotel which are cheap.
Conclusion: cute hotel, good location and nice breakfast.
Our time there was perfect, it's really good located, during our time there, we're a little bit difficult go to the flixbus station, we walk and it took around 30 mins( because the city center was closed for the festival), the hotel is located one block to the tram 1 station, and it is in the heart of Ghent
The view is phenomenal in the most amazing part of Ghent. The room is lovely and well stocked with free wine and drinks. The breakfast was personalized and gorgeous with incredible fresh croissants and breads and flowers. It is a tiny little hotel added on by a friendly restauranteur. Too notch place!
Great place to spend a few nights in Gent. The staff were absolutely amazing. Breakfast was very, very good. The interior is so unique, and the outside patio area is huge with a great bar serving Belgium beers. Thanks for the brilliant atmosphere you have created.
Close to the main attractions of Ghent and Albert Hejin supermarket.
Spacious apartment with fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and cozy living room.
There are 2 toilets.
Very close to public parking.
The host allowed us to leave the luggage until 12PM.
Beautiful apartment in the heart of Ghent. The hosts were very kind and attentive. They even invited our 4 yr old grandson to join their daughter's Birthday party.
In our 2 years of traveling internationally, this has been our best stay!
Centrally located, clean, and the staff is friendly.
Nice breakfast with a lot of options - you can make your own waffles, very "you're in Belgium". (Although the street the hotel is on also has some awesome breakfast cafes.)
The host was very nice to bring our luggages upstairs and downstairs during checking & - out. He suggested the traditional Belgium food and order the restaurant for us. Thanks a lot for his kindness.
Very comfortable little hotel close to the train station in Ghent. Clean, comfortable, modern. Friendly and helpful staff. Perfect for a short work trip to Ghent and even for a holiday.
Location is good for Ghent, short walk into the city centre, nearby to 2 tram stops, 15minutes tram from the train station so easy to visit other Belgium cities
