Reviews
In the shopping district area of Ghent. Conveniently located, easy to walk to the old town of Ghent. AC works ok, convenient room, value for money. Payable parking is available in and nearby the hotel. Mineral water by big bottles you can buy at the lobby.
A great place to stay overall. The air conditioning was a huge plus, especially during the heat wave. The location is good, with many attractions within walking distance, and the area is quiet. The only downside is that the rooms are quite small.
This was exactly what we needed for our short trip. We stayed one night here but I think this hotel can be ideal for more than one night. The staff at the front desk were incredibly helpful with everything - it wasn't our first time in Ghent so we know our way around but they did check with us and we're prepared to tell us about the city. The reviews did not lie about the breakfast. It is so good. Everything is super fresh, tasty and filling. I would book again just for the breakfast, it's also great value for money. The bed was comfortable, the Aircon in the room was working properly which was important as we came during a heatwave. They also have parking but we came on a motorbike so didn't need to use it. I would definitely recommend especially since we tried many other hotels in Ghent and in Belgium. This is also great location as it's super close to the center but quiet enough for a much needed rest in the evening. I would book again.
We come in Ghent quite often from London but we never stayed in Ibis hotel here. This was our first time and it was such a great stay . The reception staff were all very nice and polite,the room was as expected and the breakfast was top notch,value for money and so many options to choose from and you could also squeeze your oranges for orange juice ! Haven't seen this type of breakfast even at many 5 star hotels around. Location obviously perfect,if you're a biker you could leave your bike on the pavement 1 street down. Everything is within 8-10 mins from here. Upon checkout we gave our staff to be held and we relaxed in the air conditioned lobby area , absolutely alone and great music. Toilets also available after checkout. We will visit again very soon !
The location is great. But it was the most pricey (160/ night) for belgium and the most basic hotel I've ever been to. No fridge, no kettle, no face towels (just body towels). It is ok if the price is lower than others, go for it. If u spend more money go somewhere else
