It can get a bit full of walking tours and people in general...
It can get a bit full of walking tours and people in general - don't go at peak tourist times! Away from the centre there are lovely little bars and places to look at. It's crammed with beautiful art nouveau buildings. It prides itself on its artistic and musical connections - lots of students, and you could hear music practice going on in many places. There are local breweries with many delicious beers.

Two nights would've been better...lots to see.
Two nights would've been better...lots to see. Our favorite Belgium chocolates and waffles of our entire trip were found in Ghent (Gant). We choose to not do the museum or castle tours, but enjoyed the boat tour and walking through the streets, shopping, and people watching. On the weekend, the streets were pretty packed, but more families than we found in Brussels. Do the St. Babo's virtual tour if you visit--so much more information. We didn't a car. Try to get a seat near the canal for an afternoon snack/drink--lovely place to sit and relax.

The centre of Ghent was pretty.
The centre of Ghent was pretty. The level of service and friendliness was generally good, but unfortunately this was not the case on the boat or at the castle. Having visited most of the major cities in Belgium this would be rated 4th after Veurne, (small but pretty and very welcoming), Dinant, (amazing Citadel), Bruges, (charming) and Antwerp (Our favourite, lovely old town, music museum, designer shopping and easy to access...we used the park and ride)

Lots to see and do.
Lots to see and do. Interesting history, great food, shopping, atmosphere! A wonderful little shop selling delicious mustard made on-site and packed in lovely crocks. Lace and chocolate shops as well as a full service supermarket in walking distance of major sites. Kid friendly scavenger hunt in castle with a pin as a reward at end. UNESCO site bell tower and building after beautiful building with charm and interest at every corner! Restaurants had several local dishes (a beef and a chicken stew) featured that were delicious! Safe and relaxing.

Ghent in general is a beautiful city.
Ghent in general is a beautiful city. The city center that is. Lots of historical area's and buildings. Very friendly people, nice restaurants and nice bars. One of my favorite city's in Belgium.
The big advantage of the city center in Ghent is that it is compact and all at walking distance.
I did a city walk and passed most of the historical high lights of Ghent.
Nice bars to try are the "Dreupelkot" (specialized in jenevers) and the "Dulle Griet". Be warare that if you drink the beer "Max" you will be without 1 shoe for some time.

Ghent is a beautiful city with a combination of middle age...
Ghent is a beautiful city with a combination of middle age and a modern style. Lots of history to discover and many places to explore. I had a lot of fun here and wish I was able to stay longer. I would definitely go back
This is hands down my favourite place in Belgium. We visited 4 different cities, but Alphabed and Gent were diffrent and, in my opinion, the best! The street is quiet but just 5-7 minutes walking to the city center and all the best places in the city. We will def. come back!
The staff was communicative, the place was spacious and clean, the bed was comfy and the kitchen (common area) had great design and amenities. The entire place was packed with natural flowers too, a very nice detail.
The location of the hotel is really great. Although you are right in the center, it is a relatively quiet area. My favorite hotel in Ghent! As the hotel was full, I was upgraded to a premium room. Oddly enough, I found this room less cozy than the standard rooms I normally have, but still a very pleasant stay. Very friendly staff, from reception to housekeeping. The free wifi was also more than okay.
- Use of the kitchen till 22:00
- A hangout place (with table football/ board games) and a bar
- Lots of storing space in the caravan
- Lots of toilets/ bathrooms
- Friendly staff and easy check in/out
- Breakfast is ok but don't expect too much
- Cheapest option in Ghent if you still want some privacy
- Lots of buses and trams close by (5-7 minutes walking distance)
This hotel is just around the corner from the Gent-Sint-Pieters Train Station and tram to city centre. The owner is fantastic - friendly, helpful, and made us feel welcome! He gave us directions to walk to city centre (around 30 minute walk or a quick tram ride) and highlights of Ghent to see. We loved the charm and architecture of the building. The value was good.
One of the best out of LOTS of hotels/hostels I’ve stayed at during my many trips around the world: ample room with all amenities you may need, including a list of caffes and restaurants nearby graded in terms of prices; the host living in the same building —which ensures safety—, and a sense of “home” with pix and flowers and cleanliness. A real gem!
The location is perfect, you can walk into the centre of Ghent (20mins or so) along some pretty canals. The breakfast buffet was great. The hotel has an underground car park which is very convenient. The garden outback opens up into a stunning public park, where you can walk the dog on a lead. It was perfect.
We enjoyed out stay.
Our time there was perfect, it's really good located, during our time there, we're a little bit difficult go to the flixbus station, we walk and it took around 30 mins( because the city center was closed for the festival), the hotel is located one block to the tram 1 station, and it is in the heart of Ghent
I enjoyed staying in this hotel. Room large enough, it was a very clean room. Tea pot and coffee were in the room, and scooters were available from the reception, so I took one for a two hours morning ride.
Definitely going to visit Belgium/Gent in 2021 and will stay in Astoria, if will be possible.
The breakfast was spectacular! Great cheeses, lovely fresh fruit, variety of unique breads, eggs made to order, Greek yogurt, natural granola, chocolate, great coffee and more! The serving staff were friendly and attentive. Best breakfast of our 9 days thus far in Belgium!
Nice friendly and helpful staff. Room was comfortable and clean. Location is approx 10 minutes walk into centre of Ghent. The monstary surroundings are unusual (but pleasant!) - the hotel room is completely modern though so don't be put off by that.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Had an issue with bicycle breakdown and was able to leave bike there for 3 days as we continued our tour of Belgium.
Would highly recommend great place to stay within walking distance to all major attractions
I stayed two nights in enchanting Ghent and will come back. Maybe to dance Hotel. Hotel location is great, tram stop nearby, center of town, many eateries walking distance. Staff are friendly and rooms are clean . They have elevator/lift.
The atmosphere is quite nice as it is in an old monastery.
The location is not too far from the center of Ghent with its various sights.
Could become a great place if they change their attitude and come up to normal hotel standards.
Amazing location and hotel!
Right in the heart of Ghent and beautiful original facade.
Hotel room was so big and very comfortable bed/bathroom. Daily chocolates left on the bed were appreciated, especially being Belgian chocolate!
Cozy and nice hotel in Ghent! The breakfast service is provided on the top floor of the hotel, and one can have breakfast at the table at the terrace! One could also have a strong wifi connection in each room.
The location of this hotel is PERFECT for all things you may want to do in Ghent. Its an adorable trendy hotel within walking distance to everything. Highly recommend.
Excellent breakfast.
A few minutes walk from at Pieter's station with frequent rail services in six directions, so within an hour or two to nearly all Belgium.
