Lovely hotel on the edge of Mechelen. Shame about the building work opposite which has been going on over a year and looks like it will not be finished anytime soon. Parking is in the nearby multi-storey. Walking distance from town, many places to eat.

I am a frequent visitor. I like the hotel, breakfast and dinner are ok/nice, beds are good. I had a quiet room inside the hotel with a pool view, that was nice. What they really need to fix is the shower; there is almost no strong jet of water in the shower, really annoying. For the rest it is a good place to stay.

Very rigid staff, poor communication skills, flexibility. They haven't heard of "customer service for NON-locals."

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL
It says nothing on the website to warn guests the hotel is currently in the middle of a building site. We were woken every morning by heavy machinery outside our room. No safe walk into town for anyone with mobility issues. Despite warning of a food allergy, the kitchens ignored this, wiping out 24 hours of our stay. The management remained indifferent to these concerns. Terrible customer service.

No lo recomiendo
Las instalaciones del hotel están bien, pero por fuera tienen varias obras en construcción y le dan mala apariencia. Los taxis no pueden dejarte cerca del hotel y tienes que caminar con las maletas para llegar xq no tienen forma de darse de reserva. Llegamos a la 1:00 pm y nos dijeron que la habitación estaría hasta las 3:00 pm, lo cual estaba estipulado y al llegarse las 3 nos hicieron esperar hasta las 3:40 pm lo cual nos molestó demasiado y lo único que decían eran que estaban haciendo lo posible por entregarnos a tiempo, lo cual nunca pasó. Por el precio y los inconvenientes que tuvimos no me volvería a hospedar aquí.

bereikbaarheid van Keerdok naar het hotel voor bezoekers die slecht ter been zijn, begrijpelijk vanwege de bouw werkzaamheden die op dit moment gaande zijn.
