Краткий обзор: A stunning visual experience that occasionally prioritizes style over total silence on the street side.
Подтверждено @gregkiep: I stayed in this massive suite in Ghent and didn't want to leave. The open-plan layout with the glass bathroom is bold but so romantic. It felt like having my own luxury loft in the city center. Definitely not for friends sharing, but perfect for couples.

Reality check
The 'Grand' in the name is accurate for the lobby, but some standard rooms in the new wing feel a bit tight for the price point.
- You appreciate high ceilings and Nespresso machines in your room
- You want to be 5 minutes from the Castle of the Counts but sleep in a garden oasis
- You are a foodie who wants a Michelin-listed restaurant (LOF) inside your hotel

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is the pool big enough for swimming laps?
No. It is a 25m² 'wellness pool' (basically a large plunge pool) designed for relaxing, not exercise.
How much is breakfast?
Around €35 per person. It's a high-end buffet with à la carte options, but expensive if you just want coffee and toast.
Is there parking on site?
Yes, a private garage with valet service for ~€45/night. It has EV charging but fills up fast on weekends.
Can I bring my dog?
No. The hotel has a strict no-pets policy, with exceptions only for registered guide dogs.
Is the spa free for guests?
Access to the pool and sauna is generally included, but you may need to book a specific 90-minute time slot at reception.
How far is the historic center?
You are in it. The Korenmarkt and Gravensteen Castle are a 5-10 minute walk away.
Советы инсайдеров
- ✨
The 'Living Bistro' serves food all day if you miss the lunch window at LOF.
- ✨
Ask for a room in the 'historic' building if you want character; the 'new wing' is modern but more generic.
- ✨
There is a hidden garden terrace that is perfect for a nightcap away from the crowds.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The bathroom doors in some rooms are glass/sliding and don't offer 100% sound privacy.
💡The 'gym' is functional but small—don't expect a full Equinox experience.
💡You can hear the tram rumble faintly even in some side rooms due to the old building structure.
💡Room service has a surcharge that surprises many guests at checkout.
💡The 'Pillows' scent in the lobby is custom-made and very strong—you'll either love it or get a headache.
