At first sight, Hotel Industrie is not very inspiring especially if, like us, your satnav takes you to the rear of the building (and, let's face it, neither is the name!). However, as they say, one should not judge on initial appearances as a warm and friendly welcome awaits you at the hotel.
The hotel is located about 20 minutes walk from the centre of Antwerp but a tram, which goes to the centre, stops about 100 yards from the front door (very frequent service).
We had a comfortable room on the first floor which had a large en-suite bathroom (with bath and shower). The owner was worried that it might be too noisy at night but, if it was, we certainly didn't notice anything. The owner is a very friendly lady who provides a good self-service breakfast for 5 euros per person, which seemed good value to us. An additional bonus is a free computer, with internet access, in the hall. Also, about 500 yards from the hotel is a very large square which provides free parking 24 hours a day (or you can pay to use the owner's parking facility). One slight blemish, our bath didn't have a plug so make sure you carry one just in case!
When we first arrived, I couldn't understand why I kept bumping into rather strikingly good-looking people on the stairs... It subsequently turned out that a number of those staying in the hotel were attending an annual tango dancing event!

You get what you pay for. Funny architecture. Rooms are not all symetric. Door at the room was difficult to close. It is very clean though. And it does have all stuff you usually need. Breakfast is very very frugal and meager, but ok. Good for travelling on a buget. Nice owner. It is also positioned pretty well in the city. Close to some good restaurants. A bit far from the train station. Very difficult to find :) since it's such a small place.

the hotel is acceptable but it is not clean enough and the rooms are small. Actually the price is good and the hotel is not noises and very well located in a safe area and closed to the center.

We called to make a reservation and then sent them an email same day to confirm to confirm, and got a reply saying ´´As I told you´´.

Then a month later we contacted them to shorten the stay by one night, they said they didn´t have any reservation for us and didn´t help us in any way by finding another accommodation or offering discount on another night. Not professional service.
