The Shepherd

We recently stayed at this hotel and were generally pleased with our experience, although there were a few surprises. Unfortunately, we were not aware at the time of booking that our room was located one floor up from the lift, requiring us to navigate a final set of narrow stairs, one of which was broken. This could be challenging for some guests. The layout of the family room was somewhat unusual and might not be ideal for everyone, though it was just about suitable for our close-knit family. The see-through shower door is also something one might need to get accustomed to. On a positive note, the breakfast was very nice, with a good variety of options available. Parking was convenient, though it needs to be pre-booked. There was a bit of a mix-up with our request, but thankfully, a space was found for us.Overall, it was a pleasant stay with a few areas that could benefit from some attention.

Gutes Hotel, Zimmer klein aber ausreichend für Kurzurlaub. Frühstück ausreichend. Sehr zentral gelegen und trotzdem ruhig. Oude Markt und Mundstraat in 5 min fußläufig zu erreichen. Parken direkt am Hotel, Fahrräder können im Hotel abgestellt werden. Insgesamt gut.

Voor de prijs per nacht mag er wel airco zijn en een waterkoker met koffie en thee zakjes . De kamer was verder prima, ontbijt oké . Ligging hotel zeer goed . Parkeren auto wel duur, 20 euro per nacht.

Schoon en netjes, wel aan de kleine kant, maar voor citybezoek uitstekend.

On a proper walking distance from work

A very unusual hotel. Front desk staff were helpful. Room was basic but clean and functional. I never managed to avail of the breakfast offerings as had early meetings. Convenient enough location, I could walk to my conference and the town centre (opposite direction) quite easily.

Hotel is in a convenient location just a 10 minute walk from the old city center. The area is cute, near a lovely church. It is a steep uphill walk however to leave the hotel. So if you have mobility issues, this is not for you. Breakfast was very nice quality, fresh and delicious, including croissants, bacon, fresh nutella muffins, etc. Unfortunately, no coffee or tea facilities in the room! This was a shock! The rooms are also not very dark as a light beams in through the bathroom window and glass door, as well as several led lights coming from the television etc. It was quiet and I was undisturbed by noise. One of the bed sheets was stained by small red specks, like rust and there were several hairs stuck to the wall in the bathroom which was unsavory. There was no conditioner offered in the shower and the hot water took several minutes of running to turn on. The staff was friendly, helpful and pleasant! I needed an iron and ironing board and it was immeadiately brought to my room, which I appreciated!

A very nice hotel close to the Leuven city center. A warm elcome and a nice room. The building has charme (small hallways) and the room was spacious and nice. There was a great shower in the bathroom. The only downside and that is not the fault of the hotel is that Leuven is a universit city and there wer quite some noisy groups of students walking by throughout the night.

Central, quiet, clean, fresh and modern hotel. A real true 3 stars . Good breakfast with home cooked scrambled eggs. Basic bread and small choice of different hams and cheeses. Receptionist and all staff very friendly.

In centrum van Leuven super hotel en stad
