Very comfortable bed and friendly helpful staff. Conveniently located and at the end of the tram line into the centre of town. The hotel ha a special offer. A ticket for 4 people, for €9. Good value and avoids finding parking in the town

Have stayed at this hotel before but on this occasion, even though the accommodation was very clean and comfortable the meals were very disappointing. Unappetising and unless we dined early there was lack of choice and on 2 occasions insufficient food for everyone. The meals were certainly not as good as on previous visit.

it's fine - although I think 4 stars is very generous. room and bathroom clean but sparse (e.g. very small towels!). it is very well located for a tram stop, which is lucky as it is in an extremely bland empty convention park away from this beautiful city and nowhere near restaurants or tourist attractions.

Stayed at the Holiday Inn adjacent to the Flanders (Gent) Expo Center in late April 2013 while working at an exhibition. The hotel is a little dated, but not unbearably so. My room was spacious, but the bathroom was a little narrow. The breakfast buffet was 15€pp and had a classic array of breads, pastries, meats cheeses and warm selections... More

An absolute pig to get to and if you miss the turn then you end up having to do a major detour to have another go. If you have heavy bags drop them first and then park the car as access from the car park to the hotel is via a steep winding stair. The hotel staff are superb and... More

This hotel does what it says on the tin. It’s on the outskirts of Gent next to IKEA and the EXPO cente. That’s great for access from the motorway and for parking although it's a little difficult to enter by road because of a complicated local one-way system. If you want entertainment outside the hotel you will have to go... More
