A hotel without airconditioning or ventilation
No airconditioning, no forced ventilation, extremely uncomfortable in heat wave but Flanders is often above 30°C in summer. Shower difficult to enter and leave because door obstructed by toilet. Two tiny bottles of liquid soap provided for two days. Not accessible: lift stops between floors, so stairs have to be negotiated, in darkness (automated lighting comes on late). Building is old and common areas look old, not recently refurbished. At that, pricing is not much lower than that of much better hotels.

The hotel is conveniently located directly across the street from the Railway Station. The managers are Nepali and the adjoining restaurant is lavishly decked out with Nepali decorations, which was a pleasant surprise and a nostalgia blast for me - since I have spent alot of time in Nepal, as well as in culturally Nepali regions of India. The town of Gent is really scenic, historic, and interesting and could certainly merit several days of exploration but I had only one day here, so I definitely would like to return again.

Good base from which to explore lovely Ghent
Ghent is a lovely city & this hotel is a more than decent base from which to explore it. The hotel is quite small but benefits from an attached restaurant at which you can get a 5% guest discount. The restaurant is Indian fusion and really quite good, in my experience. There is also a small but well stocked supermarket a couple of doors away as well as other restaurants including an interesting & very reasonably priced Turkish-style place The hotel is just outside the main train station with buses & tram stops too. The trams being so close can make the front rooms of the hotel a little noisy but it's a small price to pay for the convenience of the location, in my opinion. Ask for a room at the back if you are a light sleeper! My room was very comfortable - lovely big bed - and spotlessly clean. It is an older property and a little tired in places but I think the cleanliness more than overcomes that. During my stay (over Easter), the front area outside the hotel was being dug up so access was not perfect. The hotel appologised for this, though. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Good hotel opposite train station
Very pleasant and helpful staff - suggested we keep our bikes stored in the hotel's conference room. Hotel on main square in front of train station. A little noisy with trams, but good bars and restaurants on the square. We ate in the hotel one night - food is Nepalese and Indian, and it was the best Indian food we have had in a long time. We would definitely stay here again
