Ghent hotels

Pros: We had the Felix suite which was fantastic. Wonderful detail, like lavender bath salts and tampons in bathroom. Lovely blend between modern and old. Location is spectacular, bed is amazing. Breakfast was intimate and personal, like having with family. Will definitely return

Cons: Car was parked 10 minutes away - having said that - for Gent parking in always a challenge, so having any option was good.

Pros: Great location. Beautifully decorated. Wonderful and very helpful hosts. Highly recommend!!

Pros: A perfect experience overlooking the castle. Living area and bedroom, built in music system, and a wonderful breakfast.

Cons: There was nothing I didn't like.

Pros: The building itself is of great interest, both historically and in terms of the architecture in developing the B&B facilities. It has a great location. The facilities were comfortable and spacious. The hosts were most welcoming and the breakfast was a feast.

Pros: B&B Waterzooi was fantastic! If you are going to travel to Ghent, it would be difficult to find a better place to stay. The owners are very good hosts. They are knowledgeable and friendly people. They can help you on your journey through Ghent. You are within walking distance to everything, in medieval Ghent. You are within walking distance to most anything else you would like to see just outside of that. They offer a reasonably priced breakfast that is as good as any hotel. They can also help you with parking if you need it, for reasonable rates. The B&B has an elevator if you need it. You have private and secure entry, to the building. There is wifi, but I never used it. I was out seeing Ghent. They share a courtyard with the Ghent Tourist Office, where you can get your Ghent CityCard, good for free or reduced admission to most attractions, and it comes with free mass transit included. The Ghent CityCard also includes a free river boat tour, of your choosing. The two hour Ghent Walking Tour, the Tourist Office offered was about eight euro. There is an excellent steak house that shares the entryway area of B&B Waterzooi. The owners will tell you about it, and guests get some discounts. I stumbled into the B&B Waterzooi. I live and work in Belgium, at this time. I randomly decided to visit without much planning. They just happened to have an opening, as they are usually booked a few months in advance. Now I am spoiled. It would be difficult to stay anywhere else, in Ghent. Of course next time I will stay longer than two days. Thank you B&B Waterzooi!

Cons: There is nothing about the property itself that can be complained about. Don’t drive to B&B Waterzooi. Starting in January 2020 Ghent will enact a smog law that will limit older vehicles. Portions of Ghent’s center are already reserved for pedestrians. Come to Ghent by train. Drive to Ghent, and find paid parking outside the ring road. Then take a taxi. Don’t come to Ghent for a day or two expecting to see everything. Make your stay at B&B Waterzooi for at least three days plus travel days. That is my advice to you.

Pros: Very nice and lovely B&B in the historical building right in front of the castle. It is very convenient to reach by public transport (tram stop is right in front of the building), but most probably you will need to use public transport only to get to the train station, because all main Ghent landmarks and places of interest are in walking distance, the same with the restaurants and bars. Our room was at the top floor, with both elevator and stairs leading to it. It was perfect, with living room, separate toilet and bathroom and bedroom with the balcony at the first level and masters bedroom at the second level. There are quite steep stairs leading to masters bedroom, so please keep it in mind while travelling with children or elder people. Room is equipped with air condition, refrigerator, electric kettle, hairdryer and you may take an iron with ironing board. Hosts are awesome, they are very open and welcoming and Kay has incredible sense of humor.

Cons: It may be a little bit too hot at the second level (masters bedroom) when the weather is hot, as air-conditioning may not get there, but there is fan, which can also be used.

Pros: The family who looked after us, made us feel special. And it was very nice to talk to the other guests over the best breakfast in Ghent. It wAs a very special stay.

Pros: Kay & Christian are wonderful hosts & so welcoming. The premises are beautiful, very calming & comfortable. Amazing breakfast

Pros: Everything, beautiful apartment in a lovely heritage building, friendly attentive hosts who know how to look after their guests, amazing breakfast, a great location in the heart of Ghent. If you're thinking of opening a B&B visit Kay and Christian to see how to do it.

Cons: Nothing !

Pros: Loved the service and experience given

Pros: Location was good, quiet and easy going to we could arrive and leave when we liked.

Cons: Nothing to really point out, couldn’t fault.

Pros: Can do attitude of the owner and the fact she drove me to my local business appointment as if it was the natural thing to do.

Pros: Immaculately presented property - spotlessly clean, great breakfast, beautiful setting and friendly owners. Highly recommend.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Breakfast was delicious. The Host is an amazingly hospitable person and great conversation. Room was huge and beautiful. I was a bit surprised that the location was the suburbs, but the bus connection was ok. It will be my first pick if I need to travel to this region again. I'd, however, recommend it more to people with cars.

Pros: Wow what can I say - the most amazing facilities and hosting - a hidden gem. The only thing I would say is that it's too cheap for what it is. From beginning to end, Anne was amazing. The suite was relaxing, super clean and had little finishing touches like mini perfume bottles, manicure kit, chocolates etc. The towels were thick and fluffy and there were slippers and bath robes. The breakfast was well laid out and Anne was very attentive. I WOULD VERY MUCH RECOMMEND YOU STAY HERE!!!

Cons: Absolutely nothing

Pros: We were in a spacious room (Delphine) which was beautifully furnished with a lovely big bathroom as well. It was at the front of the house but the street was quiet so there was no problem with noise. Breakfast was excellent and there was a good choice. It is close to a bus route into the central part of Gent.

Pros: Christine was a wonderful host. The breakfast was amazing.

Cons: If you are a little squeamish you might find it odd having the bathroom separated from the kitchenette only by a curtain. But we were fine with it.

Pros: The owner went out of her way to make sure my little 11 month old girl & I were comfortable & happy. Brilliant place!

Pros: Great place in a carefully renovated house from the 30ies (the owner lives in the attached neighboring house). Very high quality equipment; extremely clean and carefully kept house and room. Excellent breakfast and friendly host.

Cons: There was a problem with the fire-escape emergency lamp in our room (room "Fanny"), which went on and off during the whole night. The host thanked us for mentioning it and told us she would have someone solve it ASAP. The sound insulation between the rooms was not very good (the house is old and the -beautiful- old wooden floor were kept).

Pros: My one night stay was very pleasant and I enjoyed hearing about the history of the house from Christine, the proud owner of the property. I decided on breakfast, which was indeed excellent with plenty of choice.

Cons: The only point of contention was the owner's policy to levy a supplement for my double room for single occupancy. I discussed this with her before I left but she maintained her justification and necessity to do so.

Pros: The room was very comfortable. Like a small apartment and kitchen facilities also available.

Cons: We loved staying here. It was so comfortable and our room was like an apartment. There are also kitchen facilities and a garden to sit in. Breakfast was delicious - such a good variety and excellent value. It was also impeccably clean.The location was excellent too - not too far from the Railway Station and in a very peaceful lovely area with parks close by. There are regular trams into the city. Nice restaurants very close to the B& B. The history of the house and family are also fascinating too A very relaxing, enjoyable stay - thank you.

Pros: Excellent hosts very welcoming

Pros: Peaceful environment, beautiful house with big and very clean rooms. The hosts were wonderful, always willing to help and accommodate any request you might have.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: It was beautiful accommodation and hosts were very warm, kind. Especially breafast was good! Thank you very much Emma!!!

Cons: Room was somewhat cold in winter season.

Pros: Location perfect to visit Ghent and to be outside of the city with one way streets. Quiet location. Excellent breakfast with a big selection of food. Very nice, accommodating and flexible hosts! Big room, separate bathroom ... almost a small apartment

Cons: There is nothing that can be improved

Pros: Beautiful building and garden. Excellent breakfast. Far enough out of the old town/central business district to be super quiet. Close enough to cheap and convenient public transport.

Pros: My partner and I visited Ghent for a conference and stayed at Villa Emma for 3 nights. It was the best place ever. The couple owning the B&B was super friendly and the villa was magical. We had an awesome breakfast every morning (with freshly baked (still warm) bread!) and in the evening after a long conference day it felt like coming home. On our day of departure, the owner even dropped us off at the train station. A truly unique experience!

Cons: Everything was perfect.

Pros: Quirky and charming
