Rooms- the rooms were very specious and well kept. Very high tech i.e. scanning key before selecting floor. Easy to request for room service and 'do not disturb' Easy control of the heating. Breakfast- excellent spread of food and choice. The best breakfast I have had for a long while. Minimum 10/10 rating. Staff- nothing to fault. Great level of service and staff very friendly and approachable. Very professional. Location- great to get into town very easily with cabs/Uber. I would highly recommend this hotel. I will definitely be returning.

Property clean and staff excellent. Approach to hotel felt like an industrial estate and view from window the same. Car is necessary to go into town. Lighting in dining room too dark at breakfast, and not enough light in room for reading. Good car parking (surface and underground) at a reasonable rate.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Van der Valk Hotel Gent, and I must say, it was an excellent experience from start to finish. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality, making me feel welcome right away. Upon check-in, I was offered a lovely glass of cava, which was a nice touch and set the tone for a relaxing stay. The reception staff were not only friendly but also very helpful, providing me with all the information I needed about the hotel amenities and local attractions. The hotel itself is beautifully maintained – it’s incredibly clean, and everything feels fresh and well cared for. The rooms are spacious, modern, and thoughtfully designed, offering both comfort and style. I especially appreciated the comfortable bed, which made it easy to unwind after a day of exploring the city. The location of the hotel is also ideal. There are excellent public transport connections, making it easy to get to local pubs, restaurants, and other attractions. Whether you’re planning a night out in the city or a quiet evening at the hotel, you’ll find plenty of options nearby. The breakfast was another highlight of my stay – a great selection of fresh, high-quality items to start the day off right. There was a good variety of options, catering to different dietary preferences, and the dining area itself was bright and welcoming. Overall, my stay at Van der Valk Hotel Gent was incredibly enjoyable. It’s clear that the hotel staff take pride in offer

Whilst the hotel is positioned close to the motorway it is on an industrial estate so reaching it wasn't what we expected. However, as soon as you enter the hotel you forget the journey as it was luxurious from the moment you step inside. The rooms, dining and drinks were all sublime
