Okay for a stopover
Hotel is in a retail park, feels quite a remote neglected site, next to the Conference Area of town.

Staff are the best thing about this hotel. they are friendly, attentive and efficient. The Hotel itself is dated, showing sides of neglect (peeling wallpaper in room etc) and just tired. Its on an industrial estate with lovely views of an Ikea

10/10 Exceptional

The staff super nice and helpful. The train is just a couple of minutes walk away and takes you straight into town. The food and coffee were great. The esthetics of the hotel are on the older side but it was very clean so I did not mind. I think the only negative is the loop driving around to get to the hotel. The signs aren’t the greatest so you may miss it the first time. This is not the hotels fault though so nothing negative really to say about this place.

Could be much better
Standard. Entrance is good but rooms had several mosquitos and they are meant to be elimanatee before guests arrive. Instead we got told if had informed them they could have used treatmemt to try n get rid off them but was too late as we arrived past midnight for 1 night. No compensation given

8/10 Very good

Staff were great when we arrived at 10pm, checkin was smooth. The hotel has seen better days and just a bit run down tbh. Not much around the local area for breakfast so we opted for theirs, 19 euros per adult (pricey) but kids (i think under 11) are free... very good variety so we started the day well. Big open air parking but why do you make us pay 7 euros? we're staying the night! For one night, it's close to the beautiful ghent and reasonably priced but i wouldn't stay there for longer... needs a revamp!

I've stayed in this hotel a few times as it is convenient & have always found the staff friendly & approachable. The rooms are clean, quiet & air conditioned. They are, perhaps, beginning to show their age although I noticed that some rooms were having work done on them so may be being updated. As an English speaking traveller, my only real gripe is the lack of a decent English speaking TV channel (I think Al-Jazeera News was more or less the only choice). This may be a post-Brexit thing but some BBC channels, say, would be nice.

Not easy to access the hotel by public transport or by car. The roads to the hotel are not easy to understand even via sat navigators

Convenient stay!
Friendly staff and great location near tram station. Only takes 10 minutes to get to main train station, 25-30 mins to get to heart of Ghent. Quiet and safe, good breakfast!

Nice hotel, friendly staff and good breakfast
Big room, with king sized bed. Staff was very friendly and breakfast had a decent selection and nice seating area in the centre of the hotel. All in all comfortable stay.

2/10 Poor

Unpleasant, outdated & expensive!
The very worst hotel I have stayed in for the cost. I paid 208euros without breakfast for a hotel that was so dated. Doesn’t feel like it has been decorated since 1980’s. Felt dirty and old fashioned. Nasty shower curtain, too hot and ridiculous price for a hugely outdated hotel. This is unacceptable from a major brand, in a significant city in 2023.

We booked a larger room and it was awesome. The staff was excellent. There is little in the immediate area but the hotel is a short walk to the bus and public transportation was effective.

2/10 Poor

Very Disappointing
Very disappointed & usually Holiday Inn is a good hotel! 1st there was a big queue to check in which took 30 mins. That couldn’t be helped but the check in girl said I had to pay €10 as check in parking was only for 20 mins? There was no mention either that you have to pay €10 day to park there? In my room we only had 2 power points which were far away from our beds? We would be out working all day so would need to charge our phones & laptops over night and in case of emergency I want my phone by my bed? So we had to rearrange the room When moving our beds the dust underneath was disgusting... the cleaner had obviously never hoovered under there! Very surprised as Holiday Inn is usually a good hotel.
