Because there wasn’t a lift, we were accommodated with a large family room on the ground floor which was great. We appreciated the gesture.

Perfectly located in the center of Ghent, the 1898 The Post was a great place to stay and see the city and its surroundings. Located near tram lines that can take you around the city and to the train station (Gent-Sint-Pieters) the hotel is within blocks of several of key sights, so you are able to walk and experience historic Ghent right outside your door. The setup of our room utilized the unique building, giving the maximum amount of space even in our smaller room (letter) which was decorated in a way that is photo shoot worthy and tied back to the building's history. Additionally, the staff is amazing and helped us extend our stay as we were able to secure a visit to the Huyghe Brewery (Delirium Tremens) which is only a short train ride away from Ghent.

The Gravensteen or "Castle of the Count" is a deceptively enchanting sight dating back to the Middle Ages. Constructed by Philip of Alsace, the count of Flanders, it's partially surrounded by a moat and beautifully restored, and hosts an interesting museum about the history of prison life.

The Industrial Museum (MIAT) has impressive and some unique objects, as befits the first Manchester of the continent. Vooruit for workers' social solidarity and a bar. Also thought-provoking is the Dr Josef Guislain museum in a still-used asylum (take tram #2).
Note that some tram routes, e.g, #4 to Nord Dokk, no longer operate.

A historic university city.
A historic university city. Preserves its strong Flemish identity.
Has a vibrant city centre and has a 'gothic feel' to it - but, not as strong as Bruges or to Brussels.
Once the main train station has completed its rebuild, it will enhance the city as a more inviting place.
We had dinner in the student sector and found it expensive. It's easy to get around Ghent by public transport. Trams need to be upgraded with easier payment systems and electronic information boards. Compared to Netherlands, Belgium's Tourist Information-points or Centres are not that easily accessible.
I would avoid staying near the main train station during its current building works due to noise and dust. The latter if you're allergic to dust.

Augmented Reality at St Bavo's Caythedral was exceptional.
Augmented Reality at St Bavo's Caythedral was exceptional. Almost everything in the city is walkable from the centre. Cars, trams, bikes and pedestrians share streets which means being careful when you walk. Altogether this was a visit to remember which will bring a smile to my face. Heartily recommended. With over 5000 students at the university the positive atmosphere was almost tangible. And the quality of life looked very good with excellent restaurants at reasonable prices and chic shops with good design on offer.

A beautiful, lively city with many easily accessible sights, concentrated in the centre. Easy communications by train or bus to/from other towns and good public transport within the city. Plenty of shops, restaurants, cafés, and a large pedestrian area. One can easily spend a few hours in one of the many museums on a rainy day.

Ghent seems to be something of a poor relation to the more famous Bruges. However, I found Ghent to be a thoroughly enjoyable place to visit and certainly lest touristy than Bruges. It's a very walkable city (to be fair, so is Bruges, but Ghent is more compact) which I really enjoy and value.
The local tourist authorities in Ghent have done a superb job with their excellent Visitors' Guide Book (free and printed in colour in the main European languages as well as English) which has a map showing the location of all the main points of interest, together with a succinct explanation of each. I found noting comparable in either Brussels or Bruges.
On my last morning before leaving for Bruges, I visited the very modern city library which was (for me) an enjoyable surprise, particularly after all the much more traditional historical sites. Try not to miss it and try to find time to step inside for a while!

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.
The hotel is in walking distance from the main train station and also provides an easy access to the city center, the tram stop is right outside. The room was spacious and very clean. The staff was great, polite but friendly as well. They gave us some useful tips. The breakfast was tasteful and with good variety of products. Unfortunately the price was a little bit expensive for us, however we hope we can stay there the next time we are going to visit Ghent. Thank you very much
The location of the hotel was perfect for us as we were wanting to explore historic Ghent. The rooms were clean, smaller in size but still had enough room for 2 people. The view from the room was nice as well. The breakfast in the morning was buffet style and had a good variety. The hours of the breakfast buffet were nice as we were able to sleep in a little and not have to rush to get breakfast in the morning. Overall, we enjoyed this hotel.
The location of the hotel is perfect. It's as downtown as it gets and there's a taxi stand next to the hotel. The rooms are very comfortable and the beds have good and comfy pillows! The staff is very friendly. We got a lot of information on Ghent drawn on a map. It also is a cozy place with a beautiful bar and another space to hang out that has an honesty bar. Around the hotel there are lots of restaurants and other food options.
Fran and Maarten were wonderful hosts! As soon as we walked in, we felt welcomed by Fran. The room was spacious and clean, bathrooms were modern and excellent condition. Maarten is an amazing chef and went above and beyond for us while we were there. Would recommend trying out their restaurant while you are there. We will go back to their bed and breakfast if we ever go back to ghent belgium.
The hotel is very esthetic. The atmosphere is pleasant, the environment peaceful, and the space beautiful, clean, and comfortable. On top of it, the hotel is located 10 minutes away from all the main attractions. You can take a pleasant 20 minute walk through Ghent to the main train station. The breakfast was also incredible with lots of options for everyone. All the recommendations!
The man who handed the keys was friendly and gave us a booklet about Gent and gave some tips. I lived in Belgium for 5 years and visited Gent many times so it was good to get some latest updates. He explained how to open the door at night and the escape door in case of fire. The small kitchen was well equipped and everything seemed very new.
everything. The location is perfect for both visiting the city centre and traveling to other places of belgium from the train station. It’s cosy, warm, confortable and you can do the check in whenever you want. It’s the third time that I choose this studio and I’ll come back when visiting ghent in the future. Totally recommended.
Arriving and departing Ghent via train, this hotel was ideally located less than 2 minutes' walk from the railway station.
Staff were friendly and helpful. I had a nice room overlooking the plaza in front of the railway station.
The Nepalese meal in the adjoining restaurant was very good indeed.
The Boatel was a great experience. The room and entire boat was spotless and comfortable. Sven was an great host and the breakfast was excellent. I would highly recommend staying here if you are in Ghent --a different type of hotel experience that is definitely not cookie cutter.
This place is magnificent. Probably will return already this year. The house was clean and it had everything necessary for a short stay. The area around the camping is one of the best places in Belgium, however it is quite likely that it will be crowded during the summer.
We traveled Ghent to watch the football game. We needed a room for 3 people for one night. If you are looking for a super cheap hotel for a short stay, this is a good choice.
There is a free parking lot in front of the hotel. Wi-Fi was OK in our room.
A friendly and very comfortable hotel in a lovely location in Ghent, in walking distance to the gardens. Breakfast is delicious and includes fresh orange juice and eggs are made to order! There are excellent restaurants in the area and parking on site.
Great option for a good value stay in Ghent. Walkable from the station but quite far, I recommend the bus from station which stops right outside. Easy walk from hotel to historic centre of Ghent. Wi-fi good, bar that does pizza downstairs.
stayed here for 2 occasions and 6 nights in total. This hotel exceeds all expectations I have: classic style and furniture, friendly staff, and delicious breakfast (both fried egg and scrambled egg are fantastic). Highly recommended.
Superb location within a 5 min walk to the heart of Ghent. In a great neighbourhood with loads of trendy bars and cafes. An extremely well-designed building that feels just like home, but with all the touches of a boutique hotel.
