We were having issues connecting to the internet. The staff working, Vicky (I believe her name is), tried her best to troubleshoot the issue. It didn’t resolve it but we appreciate the effort she made, going over and above, for the issue to be resolved and for our stay to be worthwhile. The problem was beyond her control but the dedication she showed was truly remarkable. Give her a raise!!

Great hotel ...very different from the standard box hotel. Stayed on the rectory cottage. Room was spotless and very comfortable. Check in was really friendly and helpful. Just 5 minutes walk from St Michael's bridge. Would definitely stay again.

Quirky historic hotel in a very quiet part of the city, but just a few minutes walk from the centre. Great staff, lovely breakfast. Well appointed room and bathroom. Only slight criticism is that the double bed was two singles pushed together and they were very "mobile" so would drift apart easily!

Lovely peaceful hotel, great location for Ghent
We loved our stay, the hotel is in an ideal location for the town centre and they tried to meet most of our special requests, very quiet room, walk-in, full-height shower. Extremely comfy beds, but no natural down pillows. Mainly good breakfast with range of usual food, bit lacking in wholemeal /rye breads, sadly nothing much in fresh salad stuff like cucumber /tomatoes /peppers.

Lovely hotel. Great location to transport links and the historical centre. Staff were helpful, and the bed was comfy. However, it was 2 singles pushed together, so be prepared to fall down the middle if you are like me and wriggle in your sleep.

This is a lovely property in an old monastery while it keeps an elegant yet spartan decor reminiscent of the monastery the beds are comfortable with luxurious bedding the bathrooms are are elegant, and the property is quiet. BUT, there is no need to feel uncomfortable if you are not religious, there is a wink to the modern secular world visible in the art work, look closely, it will make you smile. The staff is wonderful.

Pro: The hotel itself is very cool and interesting just to walk through. Also the beds are pretty comfortable. Con: the room was not fully cleaned (trash had not been emptied and the sink had not been cleaned)... but, more importantly, someone keyed into the room at 9:30am for no reason?? No warning knock nor apology. That was a bit alarming.

Staying in an old seminary was very awesome and the girl at the counter was very helpful, however the older side of the property where I stayed needed much work. The bathrooms were in I’ll repair and dirty, the room locks were poorly installed with drywall screws, the tv did not work in my room, and there were significant gaps around the room door. I have stayed in hostels in poorer areas of the world that were not in such poor shape. From what I gathered, there were other rooms that were recently renovated and had in-suite bathrooms instead of them being located half-a-landing down or down the hall.
