Hotel berhampiran Domein XI Prins van Luik - XII Koalabeertjes, Antwerp

a very pleasant and well situated hotel. obliging staff ensured an enjoyable visit. a well appointed room that was clean, together with a bathroom that complemented. this is mmy second visit and i have no qualms about recommending it.

I had a very negative experience with the front desk staff that checked me in this past week. My husband and I booked a stay at this hotel back in April for 4 nights. They sent me an email stating that they weren't able to charge my credit card on the reservation, which made sense because we had forgotten we had just received a new card to replace the expired one. They asked that I look at my account, so they can charge a new card. If I failed to do that in 24 hours, then my booking would be cancelled. Approx 13 hours of receiving that email, I went in and updated the credit card information on the account and sent them an email confirming I did so. When I arrived at this hotel to check in a month later (which was this past week), the front desk staff told me that the reservation was cancelled. I showed them the email that they sent me and the one I had sent to them. I also showed them my original reservation number. They looked into it for a while, but they told me that ultimately the reservation was cancelled so they can't do anything. They were also all booked up on one of the four nights we were supposed to stay there, so they could only check us in for 2 nights (Thurs-Fri). Up to this point, I was confused but I wasn't upset. I understand things can happen, and I was eager to work this out. However, what really pushed me over the edge was the fact that the front desk staff showed no empathy for the situation I was in. I told them that I never received any email that my reservation was cancelled. I even asked if there were any other alternative hotels, as we were traveling from outside the country and did not know the area well. The staff person I was talking to responded with very little attempt at professionalism, and instead told me that we should solve this ”later” as I was holding up the line. I believe her words were along the lines of, ”you should turn around, look at the line.” When I asked her when ”later” would be, she let out a small laugh which was a very confusing response to what I thought was a valid question. This is when I was starting to feel incredulous. I wanted her assistance, but I got rudeness and condescension in return. I tried my best not to raise my voice even though I was getting frustrated, and I told her that I felt I was getting penalized for something that wasn't my fault. Still, there was no attempt to help me with the situation, and I felt like I was being waved away. At the very end of our interaction, the staff person told me that if there is a room that opens up on Sat they would contact me to let me know. I asked how they would contact me on updates (would it be through the hotel phone? My international number? Call, email, or text?) and I received a very frustrated look and a sigh in return, not a helpful response. I am still unsure why she acted this way, when I genuinely wanted to understand how I would be contacted. (And they never actually contacted me... even to tell me they were still all boo

Our second stay at this lovely hotel. This time we had 2 one night stopovers at the beginning and end of a Leger Holidays tour. The room is spacious with a nice bathroom with bathtub and shower. We love the bar/restaurant area and the selection of Belgian beers! Our only slight complaint is the breakfast servery area which is a bit small especially like us we had 3 coaches all wanting breakfast at the same time. Very hectic. However at other times I guess this may not be a problem.

Friendly counter and allowed to go to my twin room 4 hours early. Very clean hotel with towels and water supplied. No kettle but I think this must Bea Belgian thing. The station is opposite but it is 20 min walk to the old town. Fine for me but some may want to be nearer. The walk there is the main shopping street. Overall I think it was great value. As a note to other guests, and I always write this, please be more considerate when talking in the corridors especially before 8am. Whisper, your voice echoes and sound meds like you’re shouting. And don’t allow to doors to slam shut!!

Convenient location to get into town by public transport. The lobby is nice, clean and cozy. The courtyard is also very nice. It’s got a huge parking lot right under which is also very convenient. Despite the the signs “non-smoking room” it reeked of cigarettes. The kind only smoker’s home does. The room seemed clean but there wears some dust collected in different places. The bed was made in a way I wouldn’t expect from a no-star hotel. Something that takes less than 10 seconds to fix. Reception desk staff was very nice and friendly. Anyway. Not what you’d expect from a Radisson hotel. Judging by the comments so far it seems attention to detail has gone down just recently.

Het personeel was vriendelijk en duidelijk. Het was een mooie kamer. Niet heel luxe, maar dat hoefde ook niet. Het bed was wel heel erg hard. Dat was wel erg tegenvallend, maar dat was ook het enige minpuntje.

The hotel in conveniently located just across from the train station and although the rooms are small, they are nicely decorated. I would give this hotel 5 out of 5, BUT I had to pay to store my luggage and honestly it was the first time I was charged for this. I don’t recommend staying here if you are traveling with a lot of luggage. My room also wasn’t cleaned once during my stay, but that’s ok.

Prettig verblijf gehad in het hotel. Het was schoon en netjes. Geen gebruik gemaakt van ontbijtservice. Als enig punt van kritiek was dat het gebruik van het parkeerterrein niet vooraf door de reisorganisatie was kenbaar gemaakt dat het Euro 19 per dag bedroeg. Uiteindelijk de helft betaald. Tevens was er op de kamer geen informatiebulletin over de voorzieningen in het hotel. (kluis/ontbijt/telefoon/verlichting/afstandsbediening tv/schoonmaak)

Very basic hotel behind the station. Manned front desk. Breakfast available. Decent sized room with small desk and tiny shower. No kettle or tissues.

Well there are not enough words to describe this beautiful hotel . The location was perfect the facilities the staff all very helpful . The breakfast was one of the best Hilton's I have stayed at for a long time . Fresh fruits great eggs and breads . So much choice and the staff were so helpful . Thank you all
