"Pros: I booked the double deluxe suite. Really nice room, everything I needed in the kitchen and a super comfy bed. The coffee in my room was nice feature. The staff are very friendly and I loved the lounge/lobby area. Free tea and coffee there too and nice quality. On my last day I hung out, read, charged my phone and had a beer while killing time before I left. Their lobby is prob one of the best Ive ever experienced. They have laundry facilities just off the lobby for those backpacking which I think is great. Aldi is right next door and there is a brewery and some other very nice bars nearby. I walked in and out of the city Centre every day with ease. Area felt very safe. I would 100% stay again. Cons: kitchens should be supplied with dish soap and cleaning cloth. The view from my room was bleak, and faced out onto a construction site. Construction on the Friday I was there woke me at 7am. Yust did provide me with earplugs but they fall out of my ears so I just had to get up earlier that day! The breakfast was a bit disappointing- I wouldn’t recommend purchasing for those with any dietary restrictions. Very limited options for vegans and vegetarians. First day I came down there was no fruit. Which I thought was odd. They don’t have bananas - so I started bringing my own! Hot food options for non meat eaters like me - scrambled egg, poached or boiled. Nothing else. "

"Great location right across the street from Antwerp Central Station. About a 15 minute walk to historic area. Entire walk is through the shopping district, a very comfortable walk for us. Front desk staff with all our interactions were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast area is large and lots of choices both hot and cold. "
