1898 the Post

Beautiful hotel with perfect view of a cathedral from our twin room. Hotel is in a historic building with lovely architectural features by the canal and the room we were in was a cleverly designed "duplex" with the bathroom and sinks on the upper floor (ie loft) which made full use of the almost double volume ceiling in the smallish twin room we were in. The only drawback was that the steps were narrow and steep and would pose a problem if one had mobility issues. The toilet was located by the door next to the entrance but there was no sink for handwashing. Alcohol gel in a pump bottle was provided. There is a café, lifestyle / clothes shop and supermarket in the same building. Very convenient and the hotel's location was walkable to all the sights in Ghent central. The front desk staff were very polite and gracious and allowed us to store our luggage when we arrived before 11am, since check-in was strictly at 4pm. We were happy to find that our suitcases had been already delivered to our room when we returned to the hotel at 4pm. There are 2 bars in the hotel - one which is open to the public which was buzzing in the evenings and a guest-only "Honesty Bar" (1st photo) in which hotel guests could purportedly help themselves to liquor and pen down what they had imbibed - but I never saw anyone in it ! This could be due to a lack of ice or mixers. Or glasses. 🍸

Overall is great. But the entrance is a little away from the main road if you are with your big luggage that could be tough due the the steps and rough paving. Another small issue is the toilet, there is no ventilation in the toilet so the odour could trapped inside for a while.

The hotel is in a historic building and centrally located in Ghent. It is walkable to all major sightseeing destinations. Our room has a beautiful view of St Nicholas Church, and the square in front. The room was quite stylishly decorated with high ceiling but the. Shower and wash basin are on the upper level. Maybe inconvenient for some people. At least the toilet is on the same level as the entrance. My room was a bit small, only suitable to have two cabin size luggage opened at the same time. Overall it is a lovely hotel and really added to our two days stay in Ghent.

Wonderful beyond descripción. Breakfast unforgettable

像是住在霍格沃滋裏，太棒了！車廂是複式房間，窗口正對教堂，大清早躺床上就可以看日出，白天坐樓下泡壺茶停街頭彈唱，簡直不能再完美～～ 唯有就是歷史保護建築，提行李進出需要大力士，哈哈哈🤣

客房略小，但是由於是古建築現代化改造的也可以理解。地理位置而言在根特算最好的了，樓下就是超市，對面還有麥當勞，以及根特唯一的出租車上專用上車點，方便去火車站。酒店的早餐唯一優勢就是時間比較早，相比外面的早餐店。總之早去根特還是會選這家店。
