A Must Stay in Gent!
This property has a sophisticated gothic vibe you likely won’t see anywhere else. Design, furnishings, linens, appointments, toiletries are all top notch. The breakfast was served by two of the most adorable and fun young women and was plentiful and delicious. The Post is located in the middle of everything so shops, restaurants, cafes, museums, cathedral are all walkable. AND the whole place was whimsically decorated for Halloween!
Cobbler Bar for breakfast or a nightcap.
Courtyard entryway at night.
