Very centrally located in the old city near the Vrijdagmarkt. The host Nele was quite amenable to any questions or concerns I had. The room was very clearn and comfortable (though the bathroom was a bit small). Very handy to have a kitchenette.

An excellent apartment both in location and cleanliness. A small but very useful kitchen and good sized refrigerator made the stay very easy. Ghent is a city undergoing a lot of building and street rehabilitation so be prepared for the early morning construction sounds. However, the apartment is pretty quiet. A great choice.

This corner studio apartment is located on the top (3rd) floor of a clean and well maintained building. It is a 2 minute walk to the main square and is on a quiet square.

The apartment has a full kitchen and a very large, private terrace. There is no lift/elevator but the walk up the ~50 fairly steep and narrow stairs is worth the effort.

Parking is in a public lot under the main square (~30 Euros/24 hour period) and is a short walk from the apartment.

We would recommend this apartment for 2 people who want space to spread out, be near the main square and like to sit on a nice terrace after a day of sightseeing.

Excellent location.Being Sub street level resulted in noise from passing footfall and traffic. Apartment very clean and the filter coffee was a bonus. Points for charging mobile devices not particularly well placed and bed & sofa very low. Although bathroom had new fittings you had to squeeze past the sink unit to access the shower. Perhaps a smaller sink unit would help. Surprised that to pay by credit card you had to be sent a link by the proprietor as there was no facility to pay at the accommodation. Perhaps that could be made clear at the time of booking as I certainly would then have paid in advance.

Weekend break in Gent

Property is in a great location just behind the Vrijdagmarkt a vibrant square which is a short walk to the main square with St Nicholas Church, the Cathedral and the Belfry. An underground car park is just around the corner where you can park as long as you like for a fee. The apartment was well designed to make the most of the space, comfortable, clean & tidy. I would recommend if staying in Gent.

Only view is of the car park

I chose this place based upon location and particularly the picture that shows a beautiful night view from the property.
While our stay was comfortable and the photos of the rooms are accurate there was no view of anything from any of the rooms which amounts to false advertising.
It was interesting to note that the properties website does not show the night scene photo or that of the cathedral so I have to wonder why the hotels.com show them??
I posted the photos of our room but good old hotels.com refused to post them.

Parking is optional and an additional cost and must be requested immediately from the property management after reservation. The location is strategically located inside the city. The rooms are not cleaned on a daily basis as these are fully functional studios with complete kitchen and tools and not a hotel.

We liked: Great location, close to the tourist centre of Ghent, & a modern, spacious apartment. Also offering the option of some paid private car parking was invaluable as parking is not so easy in Ghent.

We didn't like: We had the worst nights sleep in all of our three week holiday travelling around Europe. The bedrooms were unbearably hot & airless even with the windows vented. No fans or air-conditioning were available, & when we opened the windows wide we were inundated with mosquitos which had a great feed on us. So not only did we awake tired, but covered in bites!

Place2stay in Ghent is a lovely, clean, modern suite of rooms and apartments. The hosts are friendly and communicative. The location is excellent. The stairs are European, steep and narrow, but this only adds to the charm; pack lightly, as I had a really heavy case and negotiation the stairs was interesting! But this is a really excellent accomodation and I recommend it without hesitation.

But be aware that there is no lift, so if stairs are a problem, make sure that there is an apartment available on a lower floor.

Large, comfortable, clean and well-maintained self-catering flat. A few minutes walk from centre and close to restaurants and shopping. We had two large double bedrooms and a large lounge/kitchen with full cooking faciltiies, and two toilets plus a good-sized bathroom with show also.
Parking in Ghent is expensive and limited on the street but there is an underground car park very close and (for Ghent) reasonably priced.
Only minor issues was that there is no lift and so accommodation above ground floor may be difficult for handicapped or otherwise immobile visitors.

Location is great. Studio appartment was an adequate size, bright, clean and attractively furnished/decorated in a simple modern style. There is no staff on the premises and no housekeeping. Our appartment was on the street side - there was quite a bit of street noise, more during the day than at night.

The only real negative to our stay was on the electronic communication front. The WIFI was sometimes okay, sometimes not - a provider problem? Again a provider problem? We had TV service when we checked in but none the next. We called the property manager who had it fixed remotely the day after. It worked for the rest of that day, but was gone again the day after.

This is a decent place and I have been there before. There may not be anyone there when you check in. They open the door remotely and your room is open. There is some noise at street level and sometimes from other guests. Only downside is there is no proper chair and table. Just stools and a bar. The sofa is nice but not much use if you want to work. There is a risk of outsiders getting into the building. So watch your stuff.

convenient location

Studio flat in a great location - quiet but within easy walking distance from city centre attractions. Dampoort railway station an easy 15 min walk (trains to Gent-St Peter leave roughly every 20 mins for connection to Brussels). The owner wasn't there when we arrived but was able to buzz us into the building via intercom, and our room had been left unlocked for us, so gaining access was all pretty straightforward. It was also handy to be able to leave luggage for a couple of hours after checking out.

Fully equipped modern apartment. Made full use of the fantastic bars and restaurants of Gent all in a short walk. Specially ribs in one of 3 Armadeues places, mussels on the canal front Graslei, music in the recently opened Missy Sippy Blues and Roots bar in Klein Turkije.

Modern apartment right in the center of Gent

Fantastic place - modern apartment with modern decoration, great living spaces, including a full kitchen, a living room and the penthouse has a large terrace. It is also reasonably priced for the center of Gent. We stayed 6 nights. I gave low ratings for Hotel Services as this is not a hotel, so no check in counter (you ring a bell at the door and it's done remotely), no cleaning service, no concierge, etc. The only inconveniences are (1) no elevator - we had the upper penthouse and got used to climb the stairs (good exercise), (2) internet requires frequent re-login and (3) cash only payment. The advantages of having a full- modern apartment in the center of Gent far outweigh the inconveniences so I give it 5 stars as it is truly a gem.

Memorable stay in Ghent

Spent 4 nights in Ghent in May 2014 for a fiftieth birthday celebration.Travelled via Eurostar and train to the beautiful city of Ghent.If you want to be emerged in european history but still like to eat and drink well Ghent could be for you.Found that there is little or no English translation even on menu's. As in most european countries found that nearly everyone was able to translate the Flemish, Dutch or german in english for us. A great relaxing city break.Numerous places to eat make your way to the tourist information and pick up Restro Ghent leaflet which will give you a place to start.Would recommend T\" Vosken by the cathedral for good quality and reasonable priced food ( the beef stew and fish stew where exceptional ). If you want a steak the place to go is Du Prgress by St.Nicholas church the two person T Bone was immense,better like your stark rare though.

Lovely having a kitchenette. God location only about a 2min walk to the main square that has a carrefour for supplies, bars and restaurants. Good size rooms,be aware that if you get a front room you overlook the carpark and with no nets or blinds we had to have the curtains pulled with lights on in the morning. Car parking is 11€ on the street or €14 in the underground, but free on Sundays. As per other reviews they only accept cash up front which was good to know. I would recommend this hotel if you like a bit of self catering, suits us as we love a dinner of bread and cheese and wine
