I had a mixed experience at Holiday Inn Express & Suites in Ghent. The hotel is clean and the staff are friendly, especially Gerald at the front desk who offered great directions. However, the breakfast was a letdown, lacking variety and quality. and I found the parking fee quite steep, especially given the location's distance from attractions.

Rooms

My room was spacious and clean, but the views from my window were disappointing as I overlooked the Marriott hotel. The air conditioning worked well, but the bathroom had issues with drainage, which affected my comfort during my stay.

The hotel is conveniently located near the highway, making it easy to drive around, though it’s a bit far from the main attractions of Ghent. Public transport access is available, which is a plus.

Dining

5.0

The breakfast options were very basic and didn’t include some items that I expected, such as decent bread rolls or napkins. The quality of the food left much to be desired and felt quite rushed in service during busy times.

Facilities

5.0

Parking is available but at an additional cost of €16 per night. While the hotel offers decent amenities, some improvements are needed, especially regarding the breakfast setup and bathroom supplies.

I had a mostly enjoyable stay at Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ghent, highlighted by the friendly staff and the overall cleanliness of the hotel. However, the shower design led to water pooling on the bathroom floor, which was a hassle. Additionally, I found the breakfast offerings a bit limited, as I was hoping for more variety like eggs or bacon.

Rooms

8.0

The room was spacious and well-lit, which made for a comfortable stay. However, I missed having a refrigerator to store snacks or drinks.

Service

9.0

The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, especially the gentleman from Nicaragua who assisted me at check-in with local tips. Their friendliness made a positive impact on my stay.

Location

7.0

The hotel is located just outside the city center, so while it was convenient for accessing main roads and public transport, it required a bit of travel to reach downtown attractions.

Dining

6.0

Breakfast included a decent selection but was somewhat basic, focusing on cereals and bread rather than hot options. The breakfast area itself was pleasant and well-maintained.

Facilities

7.0

The hotel provides good amenities, but I was surprised by the additional parking fee. It would have been helpful to have clear communication about that upon booking.

I had a pleasant overnight stay at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ghent while traveling from France to Denmark. The hotel is conveniently located near the motorway, which made it easy to avoid navigating into the city. I appreciated the clean, spacious room and the comfortable beds, though parking came at an extra cost. Breakfast was basic and a bit repetitive, but the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay.

Location

The hotel’s location is excellent for those traveling by car since it's right next to the motorway. However, it's a bit remote if you intend to dive straight into the city center without using a vehicle.

Dining

Breakfast offered a decent selection, including warm pastries and scrambled eggs, but was quite repetitive during my stay. The dining area was comfortable, perfect for enjoying a relaxed morning meal.

I had a mixed stay at the Holiday Inn Express in Ghent. The hotel was clean and featured comfortable beds, which helped after a long day. However, the location was a bit remote from the city center, and I found the internet connectivity to be rather poor. Overall, it served its purpose for a stopover, but I wouldn't opt for a longer stay next time.

Rooms

6.0

The room was decent and spacious, offering a good size for families, but I struggled with a poorly planned layout that left much of the space underutilized. Also, the light switches were confusingly placed behind the pillows.

Service

7.0

I found the staff to be friendly and helpful, sharing solid local tips that made navigating the area easier. Check-in was quick and efficient, which I appreciated.

Location

5.0

The hotel is situated in a somewhat unattractive industrial area and is a bit of a trek to the city center, especially with luggage. If you don't have your own transport, plan on using public transport, which is accessible but adds extra costs.

Dining

6.0

Breakfast was pretty basic, with the hot foods not particularly appealing — the cooked items left a lot to be desired. Still, it was a nice perk to have it included.

Facilities

5.0

While there was plenty of parking, which was convenient, I'm disappointed that the wifi was slow and hardly worked. Access to bike rentals was also limited, which was a letdown.

I had a mixed experience at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Ghent. The comfy beds and overall cleanliness were definite highlights, which made for a pleasant stay. However, I was quite frustrated with the breakfast area being overly crowded and the timing issues with housekeeping entering my room unexpectedly. The location is great for access to the highway, perfect for those with business in the area, but I did find parking a bit pricey.

Situated close to the highway, it’s convenient for business travelers, though not ideal for those wishing to explore the city center easily.

Dining

Breakfast had warm bread and pastries but lacked variety, and the space was quite cramped due to the number of guests.
