Hotel terbaik di Lobbes

Als je meerdere Novotels bezocht hebt, ben je gewend geraakt aan bepaalde standaards, van zowel kamer, personeel als bar/restaurant. In Charleroi worden helaas alleen die van de kamer waargemaakt: de mijne was supergroot, netjes, modern en handig ingericht. De regendouche was de beste ooit en het (aparte) bad liep sneller vol dan ik ooit meegemaakt had (en dat op de hoogste verdieping!). De keuze bij het ontbijtbuffet was tamelijk beperkt: met name aan groente en fruit ontbrak er het één en ander. De koffieautomaten bevonden zich buiten de ontbijtzaal (best onhandig) en één van de twee was alle vier dagen van mijn verblijf defect (erg onhandig). De kwaliteit van de koffie kwam overeen met de kwaliteit van de andere ontbijtproducten: matig tot gemiddeld. Dit is het ontbijt dat je verwacht bij Ibis Budget en dat dan ook overeenkomstig geprijsd is. Het personeel, dat hier in de reviews enorm geprezen wordt, moet haast wel collectief op vakantie geweest zijn. De receptionisten die ik trof, waren ongeïnteresseerd, dreunden lusteloos hun standaardriedels op en blonken alleen uit in het actief niet-groeten van de gasten als die voorbij kwamen. In Berlijn zouden deze mensen buschauffeur zijn. Zelfs oogcontact maken was al te veel moeite. De stad Charleroi zelf was daarentegen veel mooier (of minder lelijk) dan verwacht: met name het centrum en stationsgebied zijn erg mooi opgeknapt in een uitnodigende stijl. De meeste inwoners zijn op hun beurt nog niet echt mee geëvolueerd. Ik ben nog in geen enkele Belgische stad zoveel onderontwikkelde (en iedere betekenis van het woord) mensen tegengekomen als hier. Mocht je om het even welke een stad in Henegouwen willen bezoeken, dan is Mons (Bergen) een verstandiger en veiliger keus. Daar kun je na ”sluitingstijd” nog ongestoord over straat lopen, zonder op elke straathoek aangesproken (door bedelaars) of nageroepen (door hangjongeren) te worden. In Charleroi ben je best om 19.00 uur binnen, met de deur op slot. ;-)

Fiquei sem marcação, muito simpáticos e aceitaram a estadia ainda de manhã. Quando cheguei a noite o quatro estava sem aquecimento e o ar condicionado não está ativado, fui a recepção e disseram para rodar o manípulo do aquecedor central ao máximo. Mesmo assim não funciona. Cederam-me um aquecedor portátil. De manhã o aquecimento central já funcionava. As camas, parecem que a qualquer momento se vão partir de tanto abanar, e devem colocar um protetor de colchão plastificado que nos faz transpirar toda a noite, ora quente/frio virou constipação. Reportei a situação das camas abanarem que disseram que iam resolver mas nada foi feito. O quarto de banho é minúsculo para 3 pessoas, com a proteção do duche em cortina, que faz com o chão fique todo cheio de água. O melhor é mesmo o pequeno almoço que apesar de não ter muito variadade é bom.

雖然在距離機場比較遠的地方，但是有一個捷徑de路可以走，就是有一個在機場的門，每當有汽車通過的時候，可以跟過去，而且總體乾淨衛生，價格非常低廉

Very close to the main street. Clean an beautiful inside. This is a fitness center at the ground floor but we haven't made use of it. It was amazing to see my name on the TV when I stapped into the room. The reception is very friendly and provided service at a professional way. Highly suggested.

Good location, nice experience, friendly staff! We will for sure recommend the location and surroundings to other people, hotel accommodation was great, the weather was not the best one but as it was a short stay for sure we will come back for a longer one in order to benefit from the full facilities!

A dei passi dalla stazione e dal centro, ottimo servizio e personale cortese.

We made a trip from the Baltic Sea and were on the way down to Spain. The hotel was a request on very short notice and we already knew van der Valk so booked it. The quality and service in this Van der Valk outstanding and we can only recommend it!

Siamo stati in questa struttura attirati dal fatto che viene dichiarato si trovi a 300 metri dall'aeroporto di Charleroi..purtroppo i 300 metri si sono rivelati qualche km ..circa 3 e mezzo...quindi e necessario utilizzare servizio navetta taxi o eventualmente avere un mezzo proprio per il quale almeno c'è un parcheggio gratuito. Detto questo gentilissimo il personale, carina la struttura ma ovviamente come ”appoggio”per la strada da e per l'aeroporto senza troppe aspettative.

Ideally situated close to the airport, the hotel runs a shuttle bus from very early in the morning. Jeremy was very helpful in sorting out any problems. There is not much round about but most people will only be staying one night to catch an early flight out of Charleroi. I left too early to sample breakfast
