“Comfortable and pleasant for the Diamond District/Central Station”

The hotel more than met my needs. The room was very decent sized by European standards, clean and comfortable. I was on a high floor overlooking the lovely park across the street; the view in the morning, of a cathedral and the park, was great. Staff was helpful and all spoke English. One elevator (of 2) was broken my entire stay and other guests said it had been longer. It wasn't a major inconvenience since the other was quick, but not a great sign. There was a pleasant bar with some food service downstairs, but on my late arrival the first night the kitchen was closed at 10:30 (although advertised to be open later). The location will depend on your needs. The hotel is not in the tourist/nightlife district near the river; the walk there is about 25 minutes (it's a nice walk, though). If you are in Antwerp for business, this is perfect: it sits only a block or two from the Diamond District and the Central Train Station (very handy if you arrive by train, highly recommended as driving is tough here). There are plenty of shops/fast food in this area and a mini-supermarket right on the block, but it gets quiet at night. Hotel parking garage was full when I arrived and they gave me good directions to a commercial lot (not cheap) about 3 blocks away. It was fine but some guys tried to scam me out of my ATM card on the quiet street at 11 PM--not threatening, but not a pleasant welcome to Europe either. Overall the neighborhood seemed safe.

“Superb in everyway”

From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with a warm smile and nothing was a problem. Helpful with local directions and suggestions for eating and going out. The room was just superb. Go and stay at this hotel if you are looking for something really special that is excellent value. I will stay here everytime I am in Antwerp

“Hidden dangers in the room!”

Two very dangerous situations in the room: one is a doorstop right by the toilet that is a painful foot destroyer, and is inevitable to hit at some point with your bare feet. The second is a total lack of anti-skid devices in the bathtub, making it dangerously slippery. Both an accident waiting to happen. Reception staff is OK, but a little indifferent. Not really a surprise in a larger city. Breakfast was mediocre at best.

“Comfortable Clean and Convenient”

Pleasant front desk, fast check-in, comfortable room. Walking distance to central station.

“Great service, ok location”

This hotel had the best frontdesk service we experienced during out European trip (Belgium, Netherlands, France). She was very patient with us and very helpful in directions and recommendation. She went out of her way to help us. The hotel itself was very nice and modern with good size rooms for a European hotel. The only downside to the hotel was that it was located about 10-15 minutes from everything including Metro station, etc which was a little bit farther than I would have liked. Overall, would come back again.

“excellent modern boutique hotel, great value”

clean, modern and worth the money

“Well represented on-line”

This modern hotel borders on a beautiful park and is close to all of the shopping in Antwerp. There were elevator issues at the time we were there which were due to be fixed the day we left, but there were some scary rides downstairs! Overall, it was fine...looked like every American hotel room.

“Greatest shower ever!”

We stayed at hotel with several other couples. On one floor, the wallpaper was completely peeling off the wall- not something I would expect of an upscale hotel. However, the lack of parking and wallpaper issue were overlooked when we got to the small, but comfortable room. Nice large bed with duvet was very comfortable. Teapot, flat screen TV, and the shower was the BEST ever in a hotel! My husband travels a LOT (weekly) and we travel frequently as a family. This was by far the best shower we have experienced! Hard water pressure and nice and hot. If it was a walk in and fully tiled, it would have been perfect, but for the quality of the hotel, it was a great value. We went down to the bar one afternoon and brought up a beer and glass of wine while we were getting ready and the bartender set it up on a nice tray with a nice bowl of nuts and crackers. The front desk staff was helpful and responsive. I stopped by to ask for extra pillows and the housekeeping person was in the room before I got off the elevator! Would recommend and will stay here again- now that we know how the parking works!

“Nice Boutique Hotel, I Shall Return!”

Leopold Hotel Antwerp is a boutique hotel that is everything that you would expect, in a good way. The staff was friendly and professional. The rooms were spatious, nicely decorated, nicely kept and very functional. There were little niceties like a free water bottle and free wifi in public areas. It was centrally located, by a nice park with nice landcaping and sculptures. The price in March was very reasonable. The breakfast was fresh and nicely prepared. I will stay there again.
