Brand new hotel, still being finished here and there. Unfortunately we found the hotel suprisingly noisy, there was a lot of noise from the adjacent motorway, and internal noise from banging doors and even people speaking in the corridor. I can't understand this, surely sound insulation is a key part of a modern hotel? The beds were comfortable and staff were very friendly, but I couldn't recommend the hotel because of the noise.

The room was very spacious and good. I booked a suite and it had two double bed, a dining table and a kitchennete. We really enjoyed the room as we were 4 people. The only thing was there was no dustbin bag so sometimes we had issues in storing wet dust.

Second stay in this hotel; comfy modern rooms (USB C!) and easy access to ev charging and major transport routes on our journey brought us back. Last time the breakfast wasn’t brilliant, it was school holidays and very busy, so breakfast area was cramped and options were lean; this time, there was plenty of choice, and as midweek holiday makers we missed early business traffic, so there were no queues for the coffee machines etc. Maybe they could put more staff on to help keep the dining area stocked and clear when it’s busy? It looks like there is some building work happening on site, maybe a larger dining space is in the works?! We took an Uber into Ghent centre for a lovely meal at Du Progres, hotel was convenient and we felt could leave our car charging in safety. 1.5 hours by car to Le Shuttle. Ghent is nearly as pretty as Bruges, and as a lively university town it feels less touristy and full of hen/stag dos!

Redelijk nieuw hotel direct naast de snelweg naar Antwerpen. Alles erg netjes, kamers klein en erg warm. Bedden niet zo fijn. Fijne android tv, met stream mogelijkheden. Slapen met raam open is geen optie door de herrie van de snelweg. Hotel ligt ver buiten centrum. Bushalte voor de deur. Met bus en overstap op tram in 40 min in de mooie stad met heel veel terassen. Parkeren bij hotel voor 19 euro per dag is best veel geld.

Modern, comfortabel en schoon.

Fijn en recent opgeleverd hotel. Comfortabele en schone kamers. Douchecabine is lekker ruim. Meer dan voldoende oplaadplekken voor elektrische auto’s. Daar het hotel op een industrieterrein zit, is €19 wel wat gortig voor het parkeren. Ontbijtbuffet is toereikend, maar betreft het standaard Holiday Inn-ontbijt. Iets meer variatie in de warme gerechten en bijvoorbeeld verse jus d’orange waren welkom geweest, maar dit is echter meer aan algemene Holiday Inn-issue.
