Very Good

Really cool concept. Really liked the stay. The bed was comfortable and the staff was accommodating. The location in Ghent was perfect. Only improvements: the pillows were not comfortable at all and one of the beds had some fuzz and what appeared to be hair. The bathrooms were spotless so I chalk it up to a mistake. Still a great place.

Everything was great! I was only there one night, but the staff was very helpful and the room was both spotless and recently updated.
Room very clean. Breakfast was a full buffet for 25E. Staff very helpful. Gorgeous outdoor courtyard. Easy walking distance to canal, beer cafes, the visitor center and shopping.
This is a wonderful and very unique hotel. We loved the Monastery atmosphere and beautiful chapel. Great breakfast. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are large and spacious. I would definitely stay here again.
What a fun and neat experience! We had a wonderful time exploring the monastery and learning from the staff about the history. It’s a Beautifully renovated space.
This was a fantastic find! The room was spacious and spotless, very clean. Everything was as advertised, we had a small kitchenette, lightly stocked with necessary items. The bathroom was large, the staff was excellent. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
