I loved the breakfast, very abundant and healthy. It was truly the best! Also liked the room, it was very clean, great lighting with all the appliances available. It even had a handwasher inside. Great toilets and showers, there were enough for everyone around the facility. Very conscious disposal of the waste, you had to separate everything in categories and there were labeled containers everywhere. Also, there is free stuff available in the kitchen and bathrooms. You can leave something useful and/or take in case of emergency. Everything was fantastic!

I like the possibility of getting an only ladies room. You also don't have to rent a sheets, it's included. You can rent a towel if you need. My room was for 5 person, and a toilet with a shower were in the room, not on the floor, which is very convenient. It's only 5 minutes walking from the centre, i like it very much.

The buffet breakfast is the best! There’s no better way to start the day than with a good breakfast and they have very good options. The place has a cozy living and dining room that invites you to stay there.

All hostels in Ghent

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

There is one clothes washer €5 as well as one clothes dryer €2 per load, of which the price is fairly reasonable. The hostel provided me with a lower-bunk bed as requested.

Everything was typically a youth hostel. The staff were very helpful. It's in the old town, so the attractions are easy walking distance. The staff told us about a free English speaking walking tour, that we could go on, and so we did, and it was great.

The staff are friendly, the shared space room is very cosy and you can get free delicious coffee and chat with strangers. The rooms are nice, and exceeded our expectations copared to what we paid. Bonus: the hostel is a 15mins walk from the center. Overall I liked everything and I would recommend it for a few days budget friendly stay.
