Only stayed here for one night, but can say without any hesitation that this is a superb hotel. Clean, stylishly appointed rooms, with a cosy layout, but more than sufficient space. Staff were helpful and the hotel is extremely conveniently located just down from Dampoort train station and about a 15 min walk from the main town square. Highly recommended and will definitely be happy to return some day.

Cosy room but had everything you needed! Beds were comfy. Location was perfect for exploring the town and access to train station. Room was soundproof so couldn’t hear the traffic outside. We got parking at the hotel without a problem, there were plenty of spaces available.

A very nice, spacious property. A very large and comfortable bed, which means less space in the room. The room is designed for one person. It's close to public transport and the train station. A highly recommended this place.

Comfy beds with excellent pillows. Shower good. Check out was noon, so we left the bags in the room and went for a stroll in the morning. We returned at 11.30am to find ourselves locked out. Reception sorted it but still, a bit annoying.

With Ibis Budget Hotels you always kind of get what you pay for. The room was small but tidy and the beds werent too bad. The receptionists were all very friendly and the checkin was fast and the checkout even faster and unproblematic. For the location and price it was all that I needed. I enjoyed my stay, thank you Ibis Budget Gent.
