Guest review
10.0This was the most exceptional stay of my trip. A former monastery, it retains its sense of calm. It's tucked away off the street, adding to the calm. Reception was friendly and helpful. Everything was impeccable. Ghent itself is delicious, and PoortAckere is 5-star!
− I didn't like leaving!
Very good stay, not the cheapest option but worth the money!
10.0Excellent location, only a 10 minute walk to the central Cathedral area. The property itself is very clean and staff seemed to be helpful whenever I spoke to them. The breakfast was very good, a wide range of options from smoked salmon, eggs, bacon, lots of bread and pastry as well as cereal, yoghurt, granola etc.
− There was nothing to complain about really, it ended up costing a little more than I expected when I paid on arrival at around £230 for two nights, but considering the quality of the accommodation and breakfast etc I’d say it was worth the money.
Aufenthalt in einem historischen Gebäude.
7.0Schönes, altes Klostergebäude, gemeinsame Duschräume waren jederzeit sauber gereinigt. Lage zum Zentrum in Spaziergang-Distanz.
− Preis für ein Einzelzimmer mit geminsamer Dusche/WC zu hoch.
