Location was excellent. Decor was high quality
We really liked the hotel, however having the bed,shower and basin upstairs, and the toilet and lounge downstairs (very steep stairs!) was inconvenient, frustrating and dangerous when descending the stairs at night to visit the toilet.

Ideally located, very nice building
Extremly noisy ( tram on the main place from 6Am)
Breakfast very expensive regarding the meals proposed
The waiter at the bar ( basement) not professional at aĺl

The staff couldn't do enough for us and were extremely hospitable. The room was amazing, with a large terrace over-looking the canal. So many details were delightfully surprising: Gerlain toiletries, a bedside book of 500 places worth visiting in Ghent, cards and dice in an inlaid box, truffles, macarons, cocktails, a yoga mat/ blocks and straps, a hand written card with a thoughtful message - even the umbrellas were well designed and made. We'll be back.
Its a higgledy piggeldy building - lots of stairs, tight spaces - confusing at first - but also part of its charm.
