“Ideally located for the Gent Music Festival”

Sadly lots of building/maintenance works going on everywhere. But it didn't stop our enjoyment of the music festival. Will be going back in a couple of years time so hopefully all the city improvements will be done by then and the hotel view will be vastly improved. Have stayed at this hotel several times now. I fully recommend that you book with B&B included before you go, as it is better value. The food choice in the morning is extensive and breakfast starts at 7 until 10.30am. Not so geared up in the evening though, but there are plenty of restaurants in the area to eat out in the evening. Overall a good choice of hotel, comfortable and central to everything going on in the city. Also brilliant double glazing blocks out the sound of the late hours music, so you do get some sleep regardless of all those late night revellers!!!!

“Great hotel in middle of big dig.”

The Novotel is in a great downtown location with access to bus and tram service extremely closeby. The only downside is that the hotel is next to a huge building site. We traveled over the weekend so cannot report how noisy the site may be. The room was large for three persons and was very nicely furnished with marble counters and separate toilet and bath areas. The buffet breakfast had a nice variety of foods taking in American, French and German style breakfasts. A great stay for the cost.

“THE place to stay in Ghent with kids”

The staff were extremely friendly and a big fuss was made over the kids. Breakfeast buffet was good.

“Novotell”

The hotel was great. We arrived during Gent Fest - we did not know about this even after looking up Gent on the net but when you google Gent Fest you will find a 10 day of non stop party. This is great fun but goes on till 3:30 every morning so if you want to sleep early dont go during Gent fest - if you want fun and festivals then you know what to do.

“Great Location for a Great City”

Having not known what to expect upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised upon arrival. Check in was easy and brief. I would have perhaps appreciated if they could have told me to use the room card for the lift! Staff were friendly - even at just after midnight. The room was large, certainly large enough for just two people, with all the amenities you would expect - kettle, tea/coffee, shower, TV and mini-bar. The bed was big but quite uncomfortable. It didn't ruin the stay, not in the least, but if you like soft and springy matresses, you won't be amused. The bathroom was clean, and plenty big enough and fortunately included a hairdryer after mine gave up the ghost. A great feature of the room was the air-conditioning. If it is as hot for you as it was us out there, you will be kissing that sweet machine. The hotel bar was nice, spacious and friendly, if not a little pricey. Go down the street and into the square to find a bar if you're feeling fresh - it's always busy and relaxed and my god is the beer fantastic. We couldn't use the resteraunt ourselves as my girlfriend is a vegan, and they didn't have anything suitable. But if you are vegetarian, you won't struggle, they have plenty...it just always had blasted cheese on it! The internet access is free too! This hotel comes highly recommended for those looking for no-fuss, and a great location. (One tip - in restaurants, go in and sit down - they don't greet at the door like here. It caused endless confusion!)

“Good choice”

Will stay there again. Good customer service and clean rooms. Awesome location. Novotel is good to stay with small children.

“Redelijk hotel”

Veel enthousiaste meningen en goede beoordelingen over dit hotel gezien, maar het was niet geheel volgens verwachting. Ik vond de badkamer en dan met name de douche/bad erg eenvoudig en zeer goedkoop aandoen. Verder is het allemaal redelijk in orde waarbij service en personeel prima te noemen is.

“Novotel Gent Centrum, een comfortable plek in een schitterende omgeving!”

Het is elke keer weer een ervaring om op zo´n plek te zijn.
