The location was very good! The standard room for the price was good with a comfy bed and pillows. Breakfast was included in the price and much better than most hotels of this rating in Europe! Parking was available but limited. Only down side was the noise from the street as a group of people were outside until the wee hours and then the trams started going past!

We were put up here while visiting the University of Ghent on academic business. It's an old building located very centrally, close both to the university and the medieval town with all the tourist sights. It is perhaps on the expensive side, but perfectly comfortable, with a very professional staff. Because it's an old building, getting to the room can be like negotiating a maze, but that is part of the charm. Our room on the top floor had a very interesting, quirky layout - the bathroom and small sofa area on the upper level where you entered, followed by a small spiral six-stair staircase down to a lower level with a table and the bedroom - kind of fun, though a bit tricky to navigate at night. Our room was nice and quiet. The breakfast was costly but very impressive, with an excellent selection of cheeses, meats, breads and pastries, yogurt, etc. and in a pleasant room.

Went for a weekend to Ghent and stayed in this hotel. When you enter the hotel it looks very nice but the room looked a bit like a prison. Small, very basic and wooden floor which made a lot of noise. Probably never heard of colours becaues it was not used in our room.
Bed was ok for one night, bathroom was pretty big with a good shower.
It is old and not always clean and way to much money for what the offer you.
Positive point, great location.

It's right next to the stunning Gravensteen. I could see the golden morning sun shinning on the castle from my window. The rooms are smallish, with beams right above the bed. The walls and floors are not very well sound-proof, but I still slept well. It's cozy there. The breadfast room has a good view and is carefully taken care of. The food and service can't be much better. Staffs are warm and friendly. I like the lobby there, especially when lit by candles.
