Lovely hotel on the edge of Mechelen. Shame about the building work opposite which has been going on over a year and looks like it will not be finished anytime soon. Parking is in the nearby multi-storey. Walking distance from town, many places to eat.

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL
It says nothing on the website to warn guests the hotel is currently in the middle of a building site. We were woken every morning by heavy machinery outside our room. No safe walk into town for anyone with mobility issues. Despite warning of a food allergy, the kitchens ignored this, wiping out 24 hours of our stay. The management remained indifferent to these concerns. Terrible customer service.
