Hotel di Zelzate

It is a great hotel, but it can be a better one if it hire quality staff. The front desk staff ( chubby guy with a glasses ) is a bit rude, throwing my passport to the desk after confirming the details. That’s make me wonder whether Belgians are in general that unfriendly, especially unfriendly to asian like me?

Prima hotel, simpele maar nette en schone kamer. Wij zaten niet in het hoofdgebouw maar in het bijgebouw. Helaas waren het ook twee aparte bedden, van te voren wel een tweepersoonsbed aangevraagd maar toen werd er al aangegeven dit niet te kunnen beloven. De ligging van het hotel is geweldig, midden in het centrum.

Personeel - prettige 24 uurs receptie, aardige mensen. Hygiene - de kamer was brandschoon. Kamer - fijne ruime kamer. Föhn werkte goed, badkamer was erg prettig. Verder genoeg mogelijkheden om spullen op te bergen. Spiegels en koffiezet apparaat en waterkoker. Ligging- perfect, midden in het centrum. Parkeren met P en R (bijvoorbeeld Decathlon) is aan te raden, volledig gratis.

Best location, middle of all touristic activities, historic facade with a modern interior. Good breakfast. Worth the price

Great hotel in a great location, the best way to travel in Belgium is by train, this hotel is a 300 meter walk from the main train station, the road down to the centre of town is lined with nice restaurants and cafes and a very pleasant walk, alternatively there is a Tram right outside the door. We had a small problem with one of our friends and the hotel went out of their way to help us out, they also have a great breakfast room on the 6th floor with views out over the city. The Hotel staff are also very good, making sure you have what you need in your room.

A fascinating hotel with the most unobtrusive entrance ever! A great location in Gent's pedestrian zone, so straight out into the historic centre. Excellent, friendly - and very efficient - staff througout the hotel. And a six star breakfast! And a delight for fans of cast-iron framed buildings. It was the end of a brilliant trip and we're very gratefu to Hogan Holidays for organising it for us.

Vriendelijke ontvangst. De ligging is heel goed. Kamer voor de prijs die wij betaald hebben nog net oké. (63 euro voor 2) De kamer had een onfrisse geur door de afloop. (Putjesgeur) Geen minibar zoals beschreven. WIFI werkte niet. Ontbijt van 8 tot 10 waarbij om 9 uur spek en eieren en pistolets op waren. Ontbijtruimte was niet proper. Koffiemachine, microgolfoven, tafellaken waar het eten op stond waren vies. Overal stof en vuiligheid. Veel dingen stuk....kasten die uit elkaar hangen, gaten in de muur,bespoten die los staan, sigarettenpeuken die rondslingeren, .... Deur waar alles van was en producten opgeborgen stond stond open, wat was dat? Gewoonweg onverzorgd. Electriciteit uitgevallen rond middernacht. Zijn ze komen oplossen na gebeld te hebben. Een uur later zit de rest van het hotel zonder stroom. Een mooi gebouw maar er zit geen ziel in. Laat je niet verblinden door de foto's. Dit hotel is dringend toe aan renovatie en een grote schoonmaakbeurt.

We have just spent two nights at this hotel and the location is ideal for walking or cycling into the centre of Ghent. The rooms are compact but functional for a short stay, we had the two single beds (rather than a double bed) as you get more space. Breakfast is good with a reasonable choice. Car parking is underground so your car will be safe although it is 14 euros per night. We hired bikes for 10 euros each and cycled all over Ghent, just be careful of the trams and tram lines. The staff at the front desk were very helpful. we would happily stay here again if we visit Ghent again in the future.

This hotel enjoys a wonderful location within feet of the old town. A 3 minute stroll takes you to a beautiful canal in the heart of the old city. The foyer, bar area and breakfast room are beautiful - full of character and period charm. Breakfast is good - even soy yogurts and milk alternatives were provided. Reception staff are mixed with some lacking basic hospitality skills. After a long journey you might expect a smile and a warm welcome, not rude as such but lacking charm. The rooms - I have stayed here 3 times in 3 different rooms, all of which were spacious. However, and this IS an issue for me, only a handful of rooms are in the main building. Some are in the external courtyard, worse still some are up external steps / decking (think American motel). I specified main building but they have a very liberal interpretation of this. It extends to all rooms accessed via the external courtyard. It wasn’t an issue for us as our room was 6 feet from the main door on ground level. I should also add that the room was very nice and spacious but stifflingly hot with no option to adjust the temperature. f you are on an upper deck, walking in the rain to go for breakfast may be a sticking point. The hotel also has another building (a 2 minute walk down the street) in a dark courtyard. The rooms are nice but make sure that you are aware of your accommodation. Having stayed in this part previously, I found it very annoying walking for breakfast and this area lacked the security of being in a hotel. In short, lovely location, nice hotel but do be aware of where exactly your room is situated - it could be in an external motel annex or in another building entirely. Tips : as you walk out of the hotel, turn right and right again by the Mariott and you will be by the canal. Tip 2 : there is an excellent supermarket directly opposite but it’s very easy to miss as it looks small and unassuming from the outside. Tip 3 : Tram no1 can be found directly opposite The Body Shop. It will take you to Sint Peters and very regular trains will take you to both Bruges and Brussels within 25 minutes at a cost of €10 ish per journey.

Sehr schönes Hotel im Zentrum von Gent. Gebäude im klassizistischen Stil mit modernen Elementen. Tolles Frühstücksbüffet mit aufmerksamem Service. Check-in war ok, die Check-in Zeit 15 Uhr wurde leider nicht eingehalten. Wir haben aber netterweise ein Upgrade bekommen, daher hat sich das Warten gelohnt. Besonders schön sind die Zimmer mit Balkon zum Innenhof. Das Restaurant hatte geschlossen. Die Drinks im Innenhof waren sehr gut, der Service abends etwas langsam. Man ist vom Hotel schnell zu Fuß in der historischen Innenstadt. Gym und Pool klein aber gepflegt. Insgesamt ein tolles Hotel.
