“Another great stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2011

This is the second time we have stayed at this hotel and we were not dissapointed. The rooms are very clean and well presented. Although they are not on the massive size they are more than adequate. Breakfast was very good english and continental. We ate in the evening a couple of times and the food was very good (schnitzels were huge!) . We challenge anyone to find a better cup of coffee in Blankenberge than what is served in the bar at this hotel. The staff are superb and very helpful especially peter who goes out of his way to make you feel welcome.

Excellent location to the town and other travel links

We will definately return in the future.

Hey guys,

It was wonderful having you here again! It's always fun to see familiar faces. I'm glad you had a good time. I hope the journey back home wasn't too long.

Hope to see you again next year!

Best regards

Peter

“Average Hotel....great staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2011

person found this review helpful

Stayed only one night whilst on a long weekend in Belgium.

Hotel easy to find and is good location to main shopping street and beach front (5 mins) staff very friendly and helpful.

Room is small (big bathroom) very basic room, less than a Travelodge in many ways. A little dissapointed with size and comfort but only stayed over night so was ok for that.

Breakfast really nice, buffet of hams and cheese plus pastries and much more.
Overall average is as fair as we can say......probably wouldnt stay again as was over 100 Euro with parking...but "OK"

“Standard Hotel but very engaged staff”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 April 2011

The hotel is located in the center of Blankenberge approximately 5 min walking distance to the cost line with beach and lots of restaurants.
The rooms backwards are realy calm but partly very small. They don't offer anything special but everything which is needed. The staff is very motivated and tries to make everything possible.
The breakfast could be better but it offers the standard stuff for Belgium.

“Up to you...”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2007

person found this review helpful

I was probably unlucky : my room (251) was very very noisy due to a ventilation shaft just under the window (continuing vibations in the room). And the ventilation shaft worked all the day (from 9.00 A.M.) and also during night (to 1.30 A.M.). The receptionist was just unhelpfull...Very disapointed.

First of all I would like to thank you for your feedback. The hotel has recently been taken over by new owners and we have done a lot of renovations here in the hotel. This ventilation shaft comes from the kitchen and now it only works from 12 p.m until 9p.m. This room is the only where you hear this ventilation shaft as it is the room above the kitchen. So, yes, you were probably unlucky. We regret the fact that the receptionist was very unhelpfull. Now there is a new young staff, so we are sure this will not happen again in the future. With kind regards!
