Holiday Inn Gent Expo Reviews

Old hotel, quite away from the city. Nice breakfast

It was a good stay and a pleasant breakfast was the end.

Puts on a great buffet when there s a bike race staying

At first sight a great place. During the stay, however, a number of things were disappointing. At night there was a constant annoying humming noise and the shower fluctuated very much in temperature. When the above mention was made, it seemed that the reception did not take it very seriously. The fire alarm also went off in the middle of the night, but I assume that this is force majeure. Furthermore, it is fine in terms of facilities, also plenty of parking.

Very good hotel, friendly and cared for, good kitchen and nice bar!

used meeting room at the back. Everything was fine and catering was very good

Top location, excellent big rooms with coffee maker and minibar, drinks availablevin lobby, cozy lobby bar, tasty restaurant and top class very friendly staff

Hotel in very poor condition. Old furniture looks like from 70's 20th century. Old stinky towels (stinky because they are old, not because they are not well washed). In the reception, I was converted to PLN by the receptionist when I paid by credit card and I lost 10 euro due to the exchange rate (if I would be asked for payment method, I would choose to pay euro)

Just hotel. Big set up. Big rooms. Neat and tidy. Friendly reception.

Good hotel for business in fairs, and well connected. Recommendable. Very nice, I recommended.

Good hotel with veg options in breakfast. Ghent city center is quite far but Tramp station is nearby.

Rooms are nicely good beds.
Good breakfast!

Always a good overnight stay here.modern rooms with everything you need to have for a good night's rest.Very friendly English speaking staff.will stay here next time in the area.

My boyfriend and I were passing through, driving back from Amsterdam to London, via Bruges and Gent. Good location to both cities, and you can access Gent (which has no driving in the centre) easily from the nearby tram.

The hotel has a very nice foyer and fancy looking restaurant. Slightly disappointed by the standard of the room though, for a 4-star and for the price. There's space but not a lot of luxury. Furnishings are a little tired and it's not at all stylish. The main annoyance is there are no plugs to charge your phone. The bedside lamps are linked into the main room light for some reason, so to use those plugs you have to have the main light on, which is bizarre. I eventually used the kettle plug.

The shower over bath is good and strong but again not very luxurious. However, we did have a good sleep, very quiet, comfy bed and total darkness with the curtains closed. We didn't eat in the restaurant or use the bar and and all the staff we encountered were excellent and very friendly.

Hour walk to the center, although the tram terminus in 2 minutes walk. The rooms are cool, with windows blowing. If the windows on the highway will be noisy. The doors of the rooms are very noisy. If at night someone from the neighbors walks back and forth, you will jump as if from an explosion.

Big, inside rooms have no natural ventilation, but staff pleasant and helpful, breakfast good.

A business meeting. Drinking coffee and being able to take it easy. We sometimes wait for the staff to order or settle. Apart from that quiet and beautiful setting, ideal for seminars or events.

Really nice hotel, lovely staff, breakfast a little expensive

Nice and neat hotel. Friendly employees. Room was clean and comfortable. Only downside was the paid parking, even if you stay at the hotel. When you come to dinner, for example, without a stay, you pay high parking costs.

Smiley service would be 5 stars but had to pay 12 euros a day to park. Why???

Hotel is outside, but with good tram connection to the center. Normal room quite small. Nice bar with many beers. Breakfast quite opulent.

Friendly and helpful staff as you would expect in a 4-star hotel, well-kept rooms. The breakfast buffet is very extensive with something for everyone, even gluten-free products for those who need it. Accessibility both by car and by public transport is sublime. You can get to your hotel quickly with tram 1 and vice versa from the hotel in the city center of Ghent. Really nice.

Stayed near the elevator-> machinery noise of the "Modern Times" the whole stay. :-))

Been with kids, very good and friendly staff, delicious breakfast ...

The hotel is pretty cozy and often thanks and friendly staff

Room very clean, classic and functional. Excellent bedding. Friendly welcome, useful tips to reach the center of Ghent by tram whose terminus is 200 m. It's very convenient, we are there in 15 minutes. Your car is parked in the hotel safely for 10 at the weekend. By cons, apart from IKEA nearby, there is nothing in the area. Very close to all highways. Easy to find with Google GPS. Price rather high for a 4 star too understated, like all Holiday Inn. And not even a small bottle of water in the room at 137 . But we will return if we return to Ghent because the location is very convenient ..!

The rooms are clean and spacious enough, facilities were also neat. Good beds and an excellent breakfast

Comfortable rooms, spacious and furnished restaurant. Functional meeting rooms

very relaxing
friendly peoe

Pretty nice hotel, nice and warm. However, while showering cold water, had a great stay and had a nice meal!

It's a nice place for conferences and meetings and so on

The hotel is located in the middle of the commercial area next to IKEA. You have to go to the city center by car or by tram. The parking lot is an open space in front of the house.

Breakfast is amazing
Waffle machine.

We were told by telephone that there was room, 45 minutes later we arrived there and wanted to book a room but were told that everything was full, we were there, we were looking for a different hotel than

Nice hotel, ideal if you have to be in the Ghent expo in the evening and do not want to drive back home, because is accessible on foot.

The room was large, comfortable, even with a bath included for a relaxing evening. You can tell immediately, that it is a very clean hotel. The food in the morning and in the evening is great, the portions even a bit too big for my taste. Priced a bit more expensive but definitely justified for the service you get.

Very quite hotel (more than normal), breakfast is super. Downside is: It needs a lot of renovation, it s getting old especially the bathroom.

Cozy hotel with good breakfast buffet and nice restaurant

Fine accommodation in a dreary environment (public holiday)

Has lost many of his feathers. Simple room, windows cannot open. Sanitary ok but no more than that. Nice breakfast, but expensive. Easily accessible by public transport.

Very friendly reception and restaurant staff, however 3 stars for my meal in the restaurant - meat scewer. Chicken was rubbery, meat too salty, chips tasted of oil. Also bottle of water was brought to the table already opened. I wouldn't More

Good rooms, dining rooms etc but very difficult access to get in addition to that they charge the city tax the parking of the hotel when it should be free in order

Hotel can get older but rooms are clean, breakfast and meals are good

Correct but old room, type 80s. Uncomfortable pillows. Room service correct. It is a 4 * hotel that could easily be 3 *. Great if you go for work to the Flanders fairground.

The room was nice and quite... the bed is comfy but the bath tub water is cold and impossible to have a warm bubble bath...

Equipment in order, mostly clean, nice staff, when checking in the rooms were not cleaned = bit planning but not tragic

Excellent location for visiting Ghent. Tram 1 nearby every 20 minutes. 3 eur AR.

A fairly old hotel but reasonably cheap. Access from public transit is a bit difficult.

Excellent hotel although access is somewhat circuitous! Very good, if a bit expensive, restaurant an extremely helpful staff. Room was very comfortable.

Decent rooms, nice breakfast but not that close to the city center. Decent meeting rooms, expensive parking lot.

Great hotel, simple but neat rooms with an extensive breakfast. Tram stop 300 meters from the hotel and in 20 minutes you are in the center of Ghent.

Okay to stay, bit tired looking, breakfast is great.

Easily accessible, beautiful architecture, good service.

Good hotel in the outskirts of Gent. We went with our 1 year old son and they treated us incredibly well, what we needed was served without problems and fast. Very good communication with tram to only 200 meters (if I remember correctly are 3 euros one way ticket to downtown). Highly recommended if you do not want to be in the historic center.

Bad service in the restaurant in particular the waiter named Alain very bad and bad mannered, I always treat myself badly and without respect. Do not advice to stay here !!!! BAD !!!

Let down by location in middle of nowhere although a regular tram service to town centre

It is a nice hotel, close to the highway and the city. Always parking available. Rooms are standard. Good for business trips and or short stays.

It is on the highway but its entrance is difficult and tiring, the room is old and the breakfast is modest

From the outside it looks a bit poor, but inside it has a luxurious appearance. The restaurant is good.

Went here for a meeting in the lobby. Got pleased by the hospitality and wide selection of excellent beers!
