Set in a historic building in the very heart of the beautiful city of Ghent, right on the bank of the river Leie, this charming hotel provides the perfect base for holidaymakers wishing to explore the city. Many historical and cultural attractions are within a ten-minute walk of the hotel, including the Friday Market, old Graslei harbour with its stunning architecture, St Nicholas' Church, and St Bavo's Cathedral. The hotel itself is situated in a former renaissance house and rice mill, dating back to 1518 and 1857 respectively, and provides a wonderful combination of traditional comforts and modern conveniences. Rooms are contemporary and bright, and offer free Wi-Fi. Guests can start the day with a delicious buffet breakfast and later relax with an authentic Belgian beer in the hotel bar.
