Excellent service from the staff. Very nice entry system through the phone. Unfortunately the pillows were square and not comfortable. The mattress has no springs was just one big marshmallow. Once you sink in there's no escape.

Great location, very quiet room. Breakfast and service both excellent… This hotel was cleaner and more friendly than some better ‘star’ hotels that I’ve stayed in - a really great option for a weekend in Antwerp!

Hotel Review
My stay was good, I would have preferred to have a double bed like I asked for but I was told that there was none available even though there only seemed to be 5 people in the hotel. Also improve the breakfast as it is rather expensive for what you get.

Good night’s sleep and friendly staff
We spent the night in this up & coming neighborhood that has seen a complete overhaul in recent years. Still quite some construction areas left but it didn’t bother us at all. We got the queen double at the end of the hall which I think is a bit larger with additional seating area, very spacious. The room was clean and holds most amenities but (I think) lacks air conditioning because they provided a ventilator in the closet. We didn’t try breakfast so no idea what that was like. The check in was a breeze and the receptionist was very helpful and friendly. If you arrive by car, remember that they don’t offer parking space of their own but you park (partially paid) in the surrounding area. All in all a good stay, slept well, 3 star hotel rating is accurate as (bath)rooms feel a bit dated, but clean and complete.

Both Good and Bad.
OK the staff are nice, very nice, I can't fault them. Very friendly and helpful...however... The pillows have to be the worst I have slept on in a long while at a hotel.. No choice of soft or hard here.. Just lumpy. The wallpaper was coming off the wall above the bed. And the tray for the kettle, which actually is the kettle base, didn't have a cable long enough to reach the plug socket on the side of the room where it was placed.. So why bother putting it there? I had to relocate it to the desk on the other side. Some of the curtain rings were off the curtain rail, as a result the room wasn't as dark as it might have been, and I do like a dark room.. Other than that it was fine... None of these things are big enough to put me off staying again. The breakfast is better than the local competition, nicer surroundings and served until a more civilised time at the weekend. And the staff were nice .. Did I mention that? Which I guess means that most of my criticism must land with the hotel company and not with the staff who are great. So I'd stay there again. Be aware that the whole area is undergoing major major infrastructure and building works at the moment, probably for another year. Getting around can be a bit long winded.. And they even give you ear plugs in the rooms in case it gets noisy.. See I told you.. Nice staff.

Well located hotel for the maritime quarter
Unfortunately it's mosquito season - who would have expected it in Antwerp in September! Rooms have no air conditioning so balcony door left open and I suffered from mosquito bites (as did other guests, even on the 5th floor). It's also noisy due to traffic but also major building site in the road opposite. (The hotel does provide ear plugs as a matter of routine.) There is no computer in the lobby for guest use (contrary to information in the visitor information book)
