Great hotel in the centre of Ghent. Just right for our three day stay. Conveniently located and has a car park (beware hotel is in ulez zone so make proper enquiries before driving to it) hotel bar was nice and reasonably priced. Room was comfortable. My only gripe was that the bathroom was one of the smallest I have ever had. I’m not a huge guy and only just fit in. Overall recommended.

Nice stay in IBIS Ghent Centrum
On the whole it was a nice stay. Staff is super friendly. Room does not have electric kettle but a nice small functional tv was there. Usually electric kettle and tea making facilities are there in most of the budget hotels in Europe. Location is excellent and closer to the places of interest in Ghent. Accessible by public transport Team T1 from Ghent Railway station. Buffer Breakfast had good servings and sumptuous.

Try the other one.
Stayed in Ghent for a couple nights, this hotel is an in between walk to the train station and downtown. I should have booked the other ibis. Have a feeling it is in better shape. Very run down, super small bathroom and bedroom. Other guests garbage was left in the bin. Kinda gross.

Perfect hotel for a Gent weekend stay
Perfect for our boys weekend away. It's a 15 minute walk from the city centre and has it's own private underground parking (first come, first served basis) so we could just leave the car and wander the city. Can't fault the stay - great location, friendly staff, good rooms and priced well. Would definitely stay again if we return to Gent.
