Top Ghent University Hotel Reviews

B&B HOTEL Gent Centrum

8/10 Good

"Lovely hotel in the centres"

ibis budget Brugge Centrum Station

8/10 Good

"I had to ask for change of the room because in the original room the windows were sealed, therefore no fresh air in the night. In the other room A/C/heating did not seem to have any effect at all. Slightly confusing access to the hotel through the parking lot with all associated road work outside the train station."

NH Collection Gent

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed 3 nights in Ghent and really enjoyed the city and the stay at the hotel. I don't know if it was the level of room we booked or if the level of service was the same for all but if you skipped having your room serviced they would leave coupons for free beer or wine in the hotel bar. Thought that was a great idea. We also were not expecting the turndown service but each night when we got back to the room, slippers were laid out, bed was turned down, there was a bottle of water and a glass on each night stand and chocolates on the bed. The hotel is really nice as was all the staff and the location is perfect. Our expectations were exceeded and this is most definitely the hotel I will book next time we get to Ghent."

ibis budget Gent Centrum Dampoort

10/10 Excellent

"The bar area exceeded expectations. Very comfortable, good selection, great staff. Bedroom was comparable and the area was fairly quiet"

Martin's Brugge

10/10 Excellent

"It was a little bit noisy, but the hotel is good. Gym needs more equipment."

Van der Valk Hotel Gent

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely spacious room & the best breakfast ever!"

Ghent Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Very nice hotel... only small issue, abrupt check in service. Person at check out was far friendlier and more helpful."

Canal View Hotel Ter Brughe by CW Hotel Collection

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay here. They were so helpful despite not having a lift to carry our suitcases for us. The room was very beautiful and spacious; old world style and they had chocolates at checkin and cookies at check out!"

Novotel Brugge Centrum

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely lovely hotel, great location in Bruges. Really clean, great sized room, modern, quiet. Highly recommend if staying in Bruges!"
