This is a beautiful hotel with lots of character. We stayed in the old part (a newer separate block has been added) in a deluxe room which was spacious and comfortable. Also fitted with air conditioning which was really appreciated in the heatwave. Dinner was also excellent... recommend the steak! An unexpected feature is the preserved WW1 trenches and bunkers in the grounds of the hotel with the associated history. The beautiful lake was in fact formed by the crater of a massive mine explosion that took out a German bunker.
The location is fantastic, history all around and a short 5 minute drive into Ypres for more shops, restaurants, museums etc.

The hotel was an excellent base for the visit, and even has a bunker, field gun , trenches and shells, and a massive crater within the grounds of the hotel. If I was in the area again I would be happy to stay here again

We’ve stayed here before and only chose this property again because of the lovely old room we stayed in. However, this time we were in the new build which was not even close to the last time we stayed. It was huge but had no soul no pictures no history. I think when booking this room it should be made clear that there is a possibility that you will be placed in the new build and not the castle. So disappointed. The breakfast was lovely but the toilets in the new build had brown water and smelled. I love the area and I will definitely be back but next time I’ll stay somewhere else. If I’d not stayed here before I wouldn’t have known what I was missing.

Lower sore for more recent annex accommodation

Previously wee have had a bedroom in the old building which is very atmospheric and enchanting. However, this time we were given a room in the newer annex which had inadequate lighting. Even with all of the ceiling and wall and table lamps lit, t was difficult to read from screens at any rime of day because the lights were not diffuse enough, more like localised spotlights.

We stayed for one night in this lovely property while visiting Ypres. The property is full of relics from the war and includes a history trail around the grounds with trenches and information.
Immediately behind the hotel however (and you can see people queueing on the slides) is a huge water park - This didnt cause any noise that I noticed but it is out of keeping with the memorial spirit of the hotel and the area. We happen to love a water park, so this was a bonus for us but may not be for others.
Just a 5-10minute drive to the Menin-gate and Ypres and many surrounding points of interest.
The property is old fashioned and quaint, we had a room with a balcony and a comfortable bed. The bathroom again is old fashioned but all in keeping with the style of the property (think shower curtain and individual bars of soap).
I would absolutely recommend this for a place to stay when visiting Ypres. There is a very quiet and dated bar which served great Belgian beers and the breakfast was continental with the expected charcuterie, cereals, pastries etc (and Honey cake!).
We enjoyed the experience.
Not much for younger people to do here and I think you would be bored in the hotel for more than a night or two but perfect for visiting the local sights.

Hotel with a past

The hotel looks old, it isn't that old, post WW1. The rooms are comfortable and breakfasts good but if you want to retire or arise with the Great British cure-all of a cuppa in bed then take your own kettle. Its unique selling point is the crater next door which can be visited from the hotel. It is well worth it, lots of authentic retrieved relics, some trenches, bunkers and such like with interesting information boards. The lake formed in the crater left after several mines and shells exploded in the woody area beside the hotel. It was a bit green with water weed when we went but pictures taken in spring made it look a very peaceful contrast to the horror of its formation.
The mealtimes don't fit in easily with visiting the Menin Gate Ceremony, the main reason we visited Ypres,but if they are like the breakfasts the cooking will be good. So, an establishment to be recommended for a short stay around Ypres but the nearby theme park was having a refit while we were there so cannot comment about the normal level of noise.

A must if interested in History

This is a lovely nice old hotel with very comfortable rooms, good breakfast and good Beer. However the amazing gem is the grounds which holds a rare preserved part of the Ypres battlefield. Original British trenches, pill boxes, a gun and spent munitions lie all around and it becomes clear that the small lake is actually the result of 4 German mines which were detonated under the British trench line. Story boards help bring the location to life and the closeness and horrors of trench combat is clear. Thanks to the Hotel owners for preserving this incredible bit of history.

I was spending a few days visiting the battlefields of Ypres and the Somme with my son, and would say that the hotel grounds was the best preserved trench site we saw. Remarkably, we wouldn't have known all this existed if I hadn't been staying on that side of the hotel! Entrance is by a €1 donation into an honesty box!

Amazing WW1 Ruins & Amusement Park

The amazing thing about this hotel is that there are relatively unmanicured ruins from a WW1 battle on the property. You can walk in them and have the place to yourself. Behind the crater Museum, which is a few doors down, you can also connect with an extensive walking trail. So the locations is very good provided you have a car.
On the other hand, we stayed in the new building (not usually pictured) and it lacks air conditioning and decent ventilation. Suffice to say it was HOT. Also, there is an amusement pack directly behind the hotel and they are presently adding a new wing. When we were there it wasn't noisy but it was a bit of an eye sore.

Lovely hotel in ideal location

Very nice hotel ideally situated on the outskirts of Ypres. It comprises an older 'mansion style' building and a modern annex. The rooms in the annex were large and extremely well equipped and, despite overlooking a main road were very quiet.
Breakfast was the usual continental buffet style but a good selection and plenty of it. Dinner (which is not available Sunday) was also very good - wide choice and well cooked.
The staff were all very friendly and efficient.
Location is ideal for visiting the historic city of Ypres and also the nearby First World War cemeteries - there is even a WW1 site in the hotel grounds.

Staff are very friendly, food is of a high quality from a fairly small selection for an evening meal. Breakfast is continental style so don't expect a full English! There is also a modern building for accommodation on site as well as the original building, we were in the old building and it was charming.

Nice quiet hotel.

Nice quiet hotel. We stayed in the new annex. Very modern and quiet. Good facilities. There was no tea or coffee facilities in the room but it wasn't a big issue. Very close to Ypres and in particular the Menen gate, and very easy to find. The grounds held the Hooghe creater with relics from the First World War (mainly old artillery shells etc) and original trenches that were occupied by both British and German troops. A very thought provoking experience and a great way to start our battle field tour. The staff were helpful and friendly. We went in December, so the theme park next door was closed (it's literally at the bottom of the property) so we couldn't comment on what it's like in the summer, re:noise, traffic etc but if your using it as a base to have a look at the area from, I can't see it being an issue.

Brilliant location for visiting war graves in the region. The hotel is outside of Ypres but it's an easy journey into town.

The hotel has WW1 trenches in the grounds with a €1 contribution to wander around them and the remnants of The Hooge Crater. Next door to the hotel is The Hooge Crater museum and The Hooge Crater cemetery is over the road.

Nice old rustic place. Great included breakfast

Very nice rooms. We had large attic room #32 . Only tub, no shower though. Otherwise great including breakfast. Just outside the own, easy to go to downtown Ypers.

Great room.

We stayed in a triple room in the new block. The room was lovely, lots of space, clean and with a great bathroom. We were travelling with 3 motorbikes and when checking in we were told we could use the garage which was great as it rained overnight but our bikes were dry. Friendly and helpful staff and only a short cab ride into town (€12).

A Good place to stay in Ypres

The staff was helpful. The breakfast was wonderful. It was easy to get into the city by car or taxi. Our two guides knew exactly where to meet us. We had a wonderful time.

Quaint

Nice place just outside Ieper. Especially liked the little walking path with memorabilia from WW I. We went into town for the Memin gate ceremony and then went to a nice English pub and met some great people.
