Pillows Grand Boutique Hotel Reylof Ghent

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent quality of hotel, rooms, service + spa was great too."

B&B HOTEL Gent Centrum

8/10 Good

"We overall had a good stay. The location was very central and walking distance to all the major sights to see. However the cooling unit in the room didn’t work properly and kept shutting itself off so we got quite warm. The espresso machine was out of order in the lobby. There were dead bugs squished on the ceiling over our bed."

Novotel Gent Centrum

8/10 Good

"We had a great view of the belfry from our room window. Spacious room. Hotel is right in the centre. Very convenient from all aspects. Very amiable and considerate front desk staff. Housekeeping could be a bit better, though."

Ghent Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nicer"

Martin's Brugge

8/10 Good

"Great location and very clean. Good size bathroom. Beds and pillows are not comfortable. I did not liked the fact that they do not have double beds, only two twins put together. It would had been great to have a coffee machine in the bedroom."

ibis budget Gent Centrum Dampoort

10/10 Excellent

"The bar area exceeded expectations. Very comfortable, good selection, great staff. Bedroom was comparable and the area was fairly quiet"
