    Leuven is a great city with a lot of late Gothic architecture. You can see the entire city in a weekend. The top sights were the city hall and the Tafelrond with the Cathedral across from it. The Begijnhof was actually one of the most beautiful places to walk to and through. So peaceful and beautiful architecture. The Kruidtuin (botanical gardens) were a huge treat. Free entrance. Even in the winter it was fun to walk around. M Museum is not that interesting. The collection is very small. It took about 1 hour to see everything. Leuven is a university city but still has a lot of gastronomy. There are restaurants for every budget. I loved the La Cantina Mexican restaurant. Bar Louis was also awesome for drinks before dinner. The stores are all closed on Sunday so take that into account when you go. I would definitely go back again sometime. You can walk everywhere.

    Beautiful small city, with everything within walking distance. There is a very wide range of eating places both in terms of price and type. The train connections are excellent to other local places, Mechelen was especially attractive.

    Beautifull, historic city.

    Beautifull, historic city. Splendid townhall, beautifully iluminated before Xmas. Library with great arquitecture and tragic 1st and 2nd World Wars history. Countless cafeterias, restaurants, bars, Xmas market at the Groote Markt. For churches lovers - very interesting places to see. M Leuven - art museum definately worth seeing. I had the luck to see the exhibition "Dieric Bouts. Creator of Images". Oct23-Jan24. Many events connected with this Leuven citizen and artist of the 15th century.

    Leuven is a beautiful town with a lot of old and well restored buildings, plenty of eating places and very lively not the least as a result of the student population which consists of walking and cycling Belgian and International students. Although the weather was quite bad we walked around before going to dinner The area around the Begijnhof makes you feel like you go back in the time. Another great thing about Leuven is that you can do everything on feet as everything is within walking distance.

    Leuven is a wonderful university town located 20 minutes by train from Bruxelles, in the Flemish region. Being the city of the most prestigious Belgian University, the town is vibrant and easy-going, with a rich history and several artistic and cultural hot spots of high interest. There is a quiet and fascinating botanic garden that provides a great opportunity for escaping into the peaceful greenery. You can easily walk around, but there is an efficient system of public transport. Several good restaurants from various international cuisines and many hotels are at hand. The University Library is a must: climbing its tower, floor by floor you will go through the history of the town, especially recalling how the tragedies of the two World Wars brutally impacted it. KU Leuven, the university and one of the main institutions of the town, which plays a pivotal role in organising events and cultural activities, offers one of the best university programs taught in English in the European continent, thus the town is authentically international. Moreover, there is the plant where Stella Artois is produced, where guided tours are organised: it is worth a visit!

    Leuven was absolutely amazing.

    Leuven was absolutely amazing. Getting lost in the sights, sounds & views. I rate Leuven much higher pertaining things to do, spots to explore & indulge your senses. For some people Antwerp, Gent & Bruges may rank higher, but for me Leuven is the better option. It’s off the beaten track, the churches, Groot Begijnhof, the Kruidtuin, even the unforgettable & magical Hal 5 at Kessel-lo. Do yourself a favour & go to Hal 5. You won’t regret it. Decadenza will serve up gelato that will put Venezia, and even Firenze to shame. Then there’s Danta’s coffee shop…. Oh my word! As confirmed coffee snob, I can only say Fantabulous indulgence. Leuven is easy to navigate, buses, trains and best of all, on foot, you will be treated to priceless gems. I would book a longer trip, then I can indulge more and get into the culture and even volunteer at the Chapelry of KU Leuven. Walking along the river Dijl, truly magical.

    Very nice hotel right in the center of Leuven. Very easy walk to lots and lots of restaurants, but quiet around the hotel. Good quality small gym onsite. Good pressure and hot shower. Provided drink vouchers to skip some housekeeping nights to save resources, which was a really nice touch! We were in the area for Rock Werchter and commute to the festival area from here (walk to the train station and then ride shuttles to the festival) was very easy and we got a great night's rest.

The hotel location is good and the acess to the main railway station is a bonus (direct lift from station platform to walkway adjacent to hotel). Hotel is within easy walking distance to Leuven main centre. Proximity to Leuven train station provides opportunity to experience visits to other Belgian cities.

    The hotel is well located if you need to be near the train station. If you need to be in town it’s a bit far. Convenient check in and out. Overall seems like a standard Ibis. Breakfast was good but not amazing. Breakfast is definitely a good value for what it costs. Staff at breakfast and reception were all friendly.

    Very good location: next to the raiway station and 10 min walk to the very center. It is an old style hotel, so if you like the feeling of early XX. century then it is your hotel. Nothing extra, nothing fancy, just you have all what you need for a short term stay.
