I have only stayed for one night, so expected a partial refund for the other day. Instead our family received a free breakfast, which amounted to partial compensation only.
A small family run hotel just a few minutes walk from the beach.
We received a warm and friendly welcome and the staff were pleasant and helpful.
The room was clean and reasonably priced, and I would happily stay here again.
booked for 2 rooms for trip in oct in march arrived to book in according to the staff only one room booked offered me a substandard room at not much discount with poor facilities and when complained was told not to rebooked for next year. when booking had also emailed them direct to confirm booking so no excuses
The hotel Louisa was really outdated and old fashioned. The room was huge but there weren't a lot of amenities. It wasn't a really comfortable room per se, but the bed and pillow were good.
This is a brilliant place to stay location-wise, 2mins from the beach/close to the harbour (free parking) and the staff were super friendly and went out of their way to be helpful.
We stayed with our two small children in a family room, so I can't vouch as a stay for a honeymooning couple!
This is superior budget hotel with good breakfast included in nice surroundings. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel unfortunately is in need of some TLC our room was very worn looking especially the bathroom with a hair rinse and inadequate showing facilities, the staff were helpful and pleasant, the best part of the hotel is its location very central.

Friendly and helpful staff. Good Breakfast. Rooms a little tired and old fashioned. Fair value for money.
The hotel is very well situated, close to the beach and the shops. The room was fairly clean and comfortable (although the view was non-existent). The staff was friendly, helpful and knowledgable (recommended a lot of restaurants, etc.). The overall condition of the hotel is good and it's a really good value for money. I would book a room again if I visited Ostend.

Great location. Friendly staff. Tasty breakfast. However, room was a bit tired and small, had two single beds rather than a double and there was quite a lot of noise from creaky stairs/floors.
Very nice small hotel, friendly staff, Good service, close to centre and beaches,

The hotel was clean and conveniently situated. The breakfast was good, especially the croissants. Overall, not bad for the price. If you are looking for luxuries, this is definitely not the place to go. But if you want a clean bed and bathroom, at a reasonable price, this is the place. I would go back if I'm on a budget.
Could not recommend this hotel enough. It is a great place with a wonderful family welcome and atmosphere. We shall be returning again and again as we just love Ostende.
The position of the hotel lends itself to all the best parts of the town, close to both the beach and shopping areas.
As a frequent visitor to Ostend I have stayed in
several hotels with star ratings from 1 to 5 and I have no qualms in saying THE LOUISA is one of
the best I have stayed in.
Value for money,cleanliness and friendliness were
all top notch.
The breakfast was a delight, the ability to boil our
own eggs to perfection was a true innovation.
Thanks for a great stay.
A good quality and value family run small hotel in the centre of Ostend. 2 minutes from the beach and harbour. Good rooms and excellent continental breakfast
We were pleased with the Hotel Louisa. The staff were friendly, the location is good, and the room we had was clean and of a good size.
The breakfast in the morning was also nice.
Kleine kamer,teveel lawaai van de ventilatoren .inkom met trappen niet vermeld op website.bar s’avonds gesloten.wel lekker ontbijt en vriendelijk onthaal.
Selv om bekreftelsen sa resepsjonen var ubetjent, var det noen tilstede bortsett fra midt på natta og alle veldig hyggelige og hjelpsomme. Parkering mulig i p.hus likeved mot avgift til hotellet, men rimeligere enn i offentlige p.hus. Så helt greit for vårt behov. Enkel, men grei frokost. Spaseravstand til restauranter og stranden.
Accueil sympathique, hôtel agréable, près du bord de mer mais un peu déçus par le service du petit-déjeuner car à 10:00, musique coupée et le petit déjeuner a été débarrassé très vite. Dommage ça a gâché tout le reste qui était bien.

Hôtel pas top, porte de la salle de bain qui se déboîte du chambrant
Petit déjeuner : le café c’est de l’eau,l’espresso a un arrière goût et les couques trop cuites

3 superior kamers geboekt voor zaken. Eigenaar probeerde ons in eerste instantie op een eenpersoonskamer te leggen. Ontbijt vanaf 8:00u dit kom mit worden vervroegd. Dan snap je het niet als hotel. Geen airco, warme kamers
The location of Louisa hotel is very close to the center, and I have a good impression about their clean environment in the hotel.

Déception
Lorsque nous sommes arrivées ma fille et moi le réceptioniste nous a annoncé qu'il y avait une panne de chaudière donc plus de chauffage et plus d'eau chaude. Ils n'ont pas trouvé de solution. La seule solution était de nous rembourser les nuitées mais aucune alternative, rien...Je suis fort décue de mon séjour. Nous sommes parties un jour plus tôt.

Response from Receptie on 21 May 2018
Le fait de vous donner une remboursement même de pouvoir loger presque gratuit à cause de ne pas d'avoir d'eau chaude est parmis tous les autres clients vue comme une gest positive. On crois que vous n'avez pas bien compris la geste commercial de notre part. On vous a demander pour l'annulation gratuit aussi et la possibilité d' aller dormir dans un hotel à 50 mètres ou de pouvoir rester avec une remboursement de 50%. On peut pas faire plus comme solution. Une panne comme ca n'est pas quelque chose qu'un hotel a en main Mme. Fabienne. J'espère dans votre travaille vous rencontrer des clients plus respectueux que vous même.
Très bon hôtel, bien situé. L'accueil est chaleureux et le personnel extrêmement gentil.
Il y a un parking gratuit à côté, ce qui est vraiment pratique car les parkings privés coûtent chers.
