8.8/10 Excellent! (401 reviews)
We had a 4 night stay at the hotel and we were in the top floor (3rd) room. Firstly the hotel did not have a lift and so you need to be mindful if you have access or mobility issues. The hotel was charming but it was an authentic Belgian hotel as opposed to a branded hotel, resulting in a few minor inconveniences. For example, the water in the bathroom went off for a few minutes (I assume that other guests were also using the taps at the same time). Also, the bathroom door did not close as it had dropped slightly. On the positive, the hotel was really well positioned to the main town centre, the breakfast was nice and the staff were friendly. Also, the family loved the 24/7 access to coffees, teas and hot chocolates. Overall, it was a really nice hotel for our short stay.
