Great little hotel with a brilliant town centre location. The hotel was clean and comfortable - with the only odd thing that you could not turn down the heating in the rooms. In the bedroom area you could at least open a window but the bathroom was like a sauna the second you stepped foot into it. Breakfast was lovely. A good selection of food, including a couple of hot dishes (egg and bacon).

Hotel very central! The room we stayed in was off the main street. Very clean, staff accomodating when I asked for extra bedding, milk etc. The bathroom was very compact, but good shower with hot water. Good breakfast, continental, adequate choice. Would definitely stay again.

Level of cheap hostel for very high price
Everyone working in this hotel was super nice and helpful, hard working. The hotel itself is in bad state. Surely not worth the price. No insulation at all. Listening all night on to people walking in the hallway, on top of us, heard the lift, showers. The room was in bad state of tear and wear as well. Will never visit again.

2 star independent in a great location
Location is great, but one must use municipal parking facilities. You can pay 25€ a day or park free by the station which is an uncomplicated 15 minute walk. Generally the hotel is a little dated and is showing wear, but it looks like they are making improvements. The beds were comfortable and linens clean. Our shower and enclosure leaked a little but it all worked. We were happy to support this family run hotel, in a resort town, especially at this particular time.

The property picture is misleading. It is a narrow building attached to another building. The noisy street was unbearable all night long. You can hear every step that people are taking from the room above. The breakfast was plentiful but tasteless, and not a single vegetable was served.

Basic hotel
The hotel is ideally located in the centre of town. Access with a car is not possible and parking is expensive. The hotel does have a deal with the nearest car park though. Our room was spacious although we did not get our tea or coffee replaced or the cups cleaned throughout our stay, which I find unusual for a hotel. It's a two star hotel, go there with that in mind and you won't be disappointed.

Hotel Albert 2, Ostend July 2017
The hotel itself was fine, but if arriving by car, be prepared for "fun and games" in finding somewhere to park. Ostend is a typical coastal town/resort so is a nightmare for parking and a series of one-way streets makes it even harder to end up where you want to be. The hotel does have spaces in a car park behind the hotel, enquire at front desk and pay overnight fee up front. We arrived at 2100 to find their Asian style restaurant was already closed, very disappointing. Plenty of local alternatives thankfully.

Nice for group of 6
We stopped at Hotel Albert II during a weeklong tour of Belgium on bicycle. The front desk guy's eyes got big during check in when I asked if he had a place we could store our bikes. Then he suggested we leave them downstairs, locked up in an area where they lock the door after midnight. The rooms were very basic, but a pretty good deal for 3 guys in each room and had good ventilation (important for sweaty dudes on bikes). The location is great, right in the heart of everything. But the biggest surprise was the incredible buffet breakfast that was included for the room. There were juices, cereals, pastries, meats, cheeses, yogurt, chocolate, eggs, fresh bacon; everything you could want for breakfast.

Other than the long line to check in and the elevator not operating properly, we had a good stay. The hotel is in a good location close to the beach and other amenities.

Overnight Ostend
The Alberts is centrally located and a little difficult to find. its on the main shopping street but with a small entrance that's easily missed. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the beds are comfy and clean. Breakfast is basic but there is enough choice.There is no wifi in the rooms. Overall a pleasant stay the hotel is central and offers good value.

In the Centre
The Alberts is a little tired and in need of an upgrade. Staff are pleasant and the location is good in the centre of Ostend. Plenty of cafes and bars close to the hotel and a 2 minute walk to the sea front.

Nice hotel - Close to the beach and train station
The hotel staff was nice, breakfast was good, and it was convenient to a lot of things (beach, train station, restaurants, bars, etc.). The only problem we had was that the wifi did not work on my friend's phone, but it did work on mine.

The Hotel was at a great location, however the hotel doesnt have any parking even though on the listing it said that there was free parking.. When we asked about it, we were told we could park anywhere around for free from 7 PM till 9AM. Thats great but what about the rest of the time, thats just a city rule so that really isnt that helpful also to find a parking spot anywhere around that area during the free time is basically impossible. The WIFI at the hotel coule only reach the lobbie, and the food was very cheap. but overall reasonable. The Room we had was clean, however the water pressure was slow slow.

Hotel on a budget
Hotel is in fairness good value for money. The hotel is clean well located and the breakfast was to a good standard. The room allocated on arrival was not as described and a little small and basic, but hotel arranged to change it with no bother. Parking on site is non exist ant and the hotel is situated in a pedestrian zone. A few bars and resturants are located nearby. For a couple of nights on a budget it is fine, but look elsewhere if looking for somewhere for a special occasion or to make an impression.

Did like that hotel was in the center of the town, near shops and restaurants, and close to the railway station. Elevator could only hold two people, however, and stairs were extremely narrow to get to upper floors.
