Guest Reviews

• Line (6/5): -
• Nadine (9/5): - L'originalité du lieu , la proximité avec le centre historique , la propreté,l'amabilité du maître des lieux, et ....le petit déjeuner !
• Michele (10/5): Non penso si possa trovare di meglio. Fantastico - Posizione che più centrale non si può, camera spaziosa, grande privacy, colazione eccezionale, soluzione unica con accesso da negozio di arredo vintage molto suggestivo. Massima indipendenza
• Guest (8/5): - De locatie is perfect, de gastvrouw zeer vriendelijk en meedenkend toen ik ziek werd. Het ontbijt zeer uitgebreid. Ik vind de kamer wat donker
• Lutz (10/5): - Perfekt, Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Es stand uns ein schöner Innenhof zur Verfügung. Sehr ruhig trotz der zentralen Lage in Gent. Wenn wir wieder nach Gent reisen, werden wir wieder dort buchen.
• stefaan (8/5): - Ontbijt dik in orde Locatie top Badkamer in orde maar wel zelf kijken voor zeep en shampoo. Prijs - kwaliteit is een aanrader.
• Eva (9/5): Perfekt für einen kurzen Aufenthalt in Gent. - Die Lage des B & B ist perfekt, gleich an der Altstadt an der Burg Gravensteen. Trotzdem war es ausgesprochen ruhig, da es im Hof liegt. Das Zimmer war groß mit separatem Bad und extra Toilette. Das Frühstück wurde zur verabredeten Zeit vor das Zimmer gestellt und war sehr reichhaltig, z. B. mit selbstgemachtem Joghurt, unterschiedlichen Sorten Brot (Brötchen, Croissants), Müsli, Ei etc. Die Tram 2 hält fußläufig. Nichts.
• FABIENNE (7/5): Bon emplacement et chouette pt dej - Emplacement parfait Petit déjeuner exceptionnel Chambre froide à l’arrivée et un peu de temps à retrouver une température confortable Hébergement un peu insolite dans la déco avec un accès à travers une boutique et rdc un peu à l’abandon
• Chris (10/5): - Fijne sfeer, mooie kamer, aardige eigenaren
• Maria Clara (8/5): Muy buena estadia en Gante - La ubicacion es excelente. La habitacion tiene muy buena calefaccion y es comoda. La limpieza 10 puntos. Buen wifi en la habitqcion que tiene 2 camas. El desayuno muy completo. Los dueños amables. Me hubiese gustado tener mas informacion general sobre Gante de parte de los dueños. Aunque sea un mensaje general recibido a traves de booking, de como llegar a la estacion de tren en otro medio de transporte que no sea taxi, lugares donde comer, tips etc. Me hubiese gustado que haya alfombritas al bajarse de la cama porque el piso es muy frio.
• Maria Clara (8/5): Muy linda estancia en Gante - La ubicacion es excelente. El desayuno muy rico y completo. La habitacion es espaciosa y la vista al patio le da un lindo toque. Muy buena calefaccion. Muy limpio todo. El wifi no andaba bien, se cortaba todo el tiempo y cuando funcionaba no tenia buena señal (en la habitacion con cama matrimonial)

• Holly (10/5): - Really lovely place in a fabulous location. The room was comfortable and spacious, and well kitted-out. The bed was very comfortable and it was very quiet despite the central location. Our hosts were lovely, and breakfast was delicious!
• Els (10/5): -
• sharon (8/5): Top locatie! - Toplocatie!! Heel vriendelijke verwelkoming en een simpel maar lekker ontbijt. Alles was aanwezig wat er moest zijn. Hier en daar wel wat stofnetjes, haartjes in de badkamer, minibar maakt veel lawaai... Maar hoort misschien wel wat bij de sfeer van de antieken uitstraling.. :-)
• Daniele (9/5): Pleasant acconodation in the city center - It was close to the city center, and also to the tram to move easily around Ghent
• Sarri (6/5): -
• Eva (10/5): - Very good breakfast and kind owners. Great location for exploring and and transfer to the train station. Mosquitos in the room.
• Anne-Marie (10/5): Séjour à Gand idéal - Emplacement idéal, le calme, le petit déjeuner Rien
• Gina (9/5): Funky studio behind vintage furniture store in great area.Breakfast included. - Funky studio located at the back of a gorgeous vintage furniture store on a beautiful street in walking distance to centre and sights. Breakfast delivered to the room. Great vintage crockery, flask, even an egg cosy! Really quiet. Adorable. Maybe some more fruit for breakfast.
• Christian (8/5): -
• De Vogel (7/5): -
• Calvin (9/5): Quirky but super comfortable experience. Will return. - Awesome breakfast. Friendly staff. Large room with plenty of room to stretch out and featured a separate dining table for that breakfast. toiletries
• Anita (9/5): - Rustig en veel ruimte. Goed ontbijt. Degelijk bed. Vlak in centrum. Eigenlijk niets het vermelden waard..
• Friedrich (9/5): Ruhiges Einzimmerapartment mit Bad, WC und Terasse in der Altstadt - Sehr zentrale Lage direkt in der Altstadt, ruhiges grosses Zimmer zum Hof, nette Wirte, reichhaltiges Frühstück, mit Terrasse zum draussensitzen
• Maria (10/5): A lovely accommodation in a convenient loction. - Spacious room. Quiet, private and clean. A lovely breakfast that included many options including my choice of beverage. All good.

• Marcela (9/5): - Cercanía al centro, el espacio, muy buen desayuno y excelente atención Las camas, en especial el colchón
• Antonio (9/5): Bello ma con poco migliorabile - La posizione , lo spazio della camera e la colazione Lo scarico un po’ intasato, la mancanza di aspirazione forzata nel bagno e sistemare meglio lo spazio esterno
• Inta (3/5): -
• Andreas (4/5): Enttäuschend und überbezahlt - Die Lage und das Frühstück waren perfekt Die Fotos stimmten mit der Realität überhaupt nicht überein. Es war ein finsterer feuchter Raum, der Preis war eine Frechheit.
• Victoria (10/5): -
• Majo (10/5): Ricordo di Ghant - Ambiente super accogliente e pulito. La camera tripla arredata con mobili vintage anni 70 si affaccia su un cortile privato, molto spaziosa, letti comodissimi. Colazione servita in camera, o meglio la lasciano in anticamera per non disturbarti, è abbondante e ben fornita. I proprietari e lo staff molto gentili. Per accedere al B&B bisogna entrare ed attraversare il negozio di mobili vintage di loro proprietà, una bella idea. Posizione super centrale. Ci tornerò! Mi è piaciuto proprio tutto.
• Desmoboccins (7/5): - Posizione, colazione in camera e prezzo. Potenzialità enormi, purtroppo non sfruttate.
• Massimiliano (8/5): - Posizione centralissima, a due passi dal castello La stanza fa parte del fondo di un negozio di arredamento, è piuttosto essenziale ma non manca nulla La colazione viene servita in camera, c"e tanta riva, un po di tutto e di buona qualità
• ANASTASIYA (10/5): -
• cemalanbar (7/5): -
• Marino (9/5): - Hele goede locatie, fijne gastheer en gastvrouw, sfeervolle kamer en een zeer lekker ontbijt!
• COUSSEAU (7/5): - L'emplacement pratiquement au pied du château. On a pu déposer nos bagages même si la chambre n'était pas prête L"impression de dormir a la cave sensation d'humidité dans les draps. Espace extérieure pas entretenu avec une minuscule table et chaises sales. L'hôte vient vérifier que nous avions bien éteint la ventilation en partant, alors que nous étions toujours dans la chambre. L'hôte nous réclame la taxe de séjour déjà payée a Booking.
• Vladimir (9/5): Superb - Great breakfast. Nicely cool in the room while it was +34C outside!
• David (7/5): Good - Centre of Ghent is a top place.
• Kate (5/5): More hostel than high end - The B&B couldn't be more central and is right opposite the castle. The breakfast had a very good selection and the roll top bath was a bonus. The private courtyard outside our room was spacious and pretty with a table and chairs to sit out, although the weather wasn't warm enough to enjoy it. The room also had some nice mid century furnishings. The access to our room was not ideal, especially with 2 bikes. You have to enter via their furniture shop and navigate a few steps and a dark hallway. As our room was slightly subterranean, it smelt very damp, which was visible on some of the furnishings....pendant lamp, curtains and wall. The bathroom had no window and the electric extractor was broken, so was difficult to ventilate without having the door wide open. Our toilet (which was separate) kept blocking, so there also seemed to be a drainage problem. The bed was comfortable and king-sized, but had a very thin double duvet, which was way too small for the bed along with two small lumpy pillows, the bed linen also look a bit tired. The fridge in the corner of the room, which didn't look particularly attractive, was very noisy, so had to be unplugged. There was also noise from the floor above, which sounded like a child running around and was awoken at 5.30am one morning. Hedwige was pleasant enough, but not particularly engaging. We also found it a bit strange that she had access to our room (via another door), when bringing the breakfast in and even entered without knocking when she came to collect our payment. This made us feel quite uncomfortable and not very private. Overall, we were quite disappointed with our stay and felt the high rate they charged, wasn't reflected in the quality of the accommodation and was more of a hostal vibe than a high end B&B. Therefore despite it's location, wouldn't stay here again.
• Jonjo (9/5): Best location, and such a fun characterful place to stay. - It had a lot of character, the entrance through a vintage furniture store, and the room furnishings were in the style of the vintage modern furniture from the store. Clean, Simple & just good.
• Peter (9/5): The closest to Grevensteen you could get - with the bonus of a filling breakfast to set you up for the day. - The property is a close to Gravensteen as you could get. In fact you could only get closer if you had booked with the ghost of a past Count. The property is at the back of a furniture shop and you can get down at a tram stop that is diagonally opposite. See details below.it is a nice retreat to get to after a day of being out and about. The host prepares a massive breakfast to keep you fuelled up for the morning and beyond! Enjoy. Nothing to dislike. Alas because it had been raining we did not get to sit outside. Now a note about the tram situation - which has nothing to do with the property. All maps (except for one that comes from the tourist info office nearby - and you have to ask specifically for it) do not show current tram line numbers, destinations and colours correctly - so be prepared for some confusion. Even some of the maps at the tram stops are not right as there are constant road works and tram works which change final destinations. Old maps, such as the regular tourist maps, show sections of tram lines that no longer exist.. There are two trams that will get you very close to the property. Tram 4 (Red) starts at Ghent St Pieter’s train station and terminates at Lange Streenstraat so it is not possible to get off at the wrong stop. The final stop at Lange Steenstraat is behind Gravensteen and you have to walk to the property over cobble stones (4 minutes, 420 m) - you get to walk besides and in front of Gravensteen. This is a good choice because you will see where the entry gate is - unless you have luggage that will be difficult to move/carry over the cobblestones - but it is not too far. However with the same tram ticket, you can get off Tram no 2 at Rabat stop and change to Tram no 4 (Green) in the direction of Mille Leeuw (not Evergem). If you are not sure, just confirm the tram goes to Gravensteen, then get out at the third stop - which is Gravensteen. This stop is right in front of the castle. Turn back in the direction you have come from and walk around 100 m, then cross the road to the property. There are other ways that people like to tell you to go by transferring in the centre of the old city, but the two ways above are simpler.
• Jennifer (9/5): Lovely small B&B right in the Heart of Ghent. - My recent stay at Baeten's B&B was very good. The room was as described. It was clean, very quiet, and the bed was comfortable. Every morning Hedwige provided a lovely breakfast served in the room. She was also very helpful answering some questions we had. I left behind my eye glasses, so I contacted Hedwige and she is sending them to me. She is a lifesaver! The location of the B&B in the Historic center couldn't be beat! The castle is just a minute down the street. I would definitely stay here again. The only thing I wish was provided was some toiletries. In the bathroom there was hand soap at the sink, but no shampoo or body soap.
• Kassie (10/5): Glorious location, hosts and beautiful room that exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend. - The hosts were phenomenal. The location was perfect and very close to bus lines and very centrally located near town center, we could walk everywhere we wanted. The room exceeded our expectations, pictures don’t do it justice. Breakfast was wonderful and hosts answered all our questions and gave good recommendations. Check in was a breeze and they allowed us to leave our luggage after check out. Plus the vintage furniture shop was very unique and made the experience even better. Only negative was wi-fi wasn’t very good, didn’t bother us, but I could see how it could affect some travelers.
• Guven (10/5): Exceptional - Everythink
• David (8/5): Very good -
• Shodhan (10/5): A pleasant room for a week's stay in Ghent - The breakfast was great. The landlady personally served breakfast every morning. The room was clean, spacious and located close to the center of the city. Upon my request, the landlady placed a microwave in the room. The room also had a fridge. On the day I arrived, it was a little hard to contact the owner. It would have been better if the owner provided some instructions as to how to contact her upon arrival.
• Nisha (9/5): Superb -
• Michael (8/5): Very good -
• Neal (9/5): Superb - Spacious and quiet accommodation located in Ghent 's historic center. Hostess Hedwig greeted me arriving later than expected. Breakfast the following morning was delightful!

• Geetha (9/5): Highly recommended from a location point of view. Very cosy and comfortable. - The location is superb.We loved the breakfast that was carefully laid out on time each morning for us, considering our choice for vegetarian meal. The host was very polite and welcoming. Thank you so much. Nothing in particular. I think it was all okay . Cant think of anything that needs fixing.
• John (10/5): Excellent I’m going back - Breakfast was fab location great
• Peter (10/5): View of the Castle right out the door. - The location to the historical center in Ghent can’t be beat. It’s within sight of the castle with not a lot of tourists passing by. Check in was flawless as we were met by Stefan who told us all the instructions. Breakfast was served each morning and was outstanding; more than enough food. Highly recommend staying here.
• Yuki (7/5): Great for a short stay! Great location and generous breakfast. - Great breakfast and location! We could walk around and check out all the main attractions from the B&B. Breakfast was great as others commented. I'm sensitive to smells and something was not right when I entered the room.... We kept the front door open for a while to get rid of the smell, and it was ok later on (plus we just went back there to sleep, and spent the time mostly outside exploring)... Also Internet connection is non-existent as others commented.
