Guest Reviews
- Sophie (10/5): - Very nice, cosy and tidy room, conveniently located close to the centre and easily accessible by public transportation. Very welcoming staff. Coffee available in the room and fruits and biscuits in the common area. I highly recommend this place!
- van der Valk (10/5): - Brandschoon, goede faciliteiten, parkeren ( reserveren) vlakbij, centrum op loopafstand, rustig, vriendelijk, snel en goed contact met eigenaren.
- Kurt Wuytack (9/5): -
- Matthew (10/5): - Great, airy room with cool design and great bathroom. Lovely welcome and great value. 10 min walk to the centre
- Antia (9/5): -
- Anette (10/5): - Alles
- Barbara (10/5): - Alles !
- Joost (9/5): Heerlijke plek om te verblijven - De ruimte en de faciliteiten
- Amanda (9/5): Topverblijf, fijner dan standaard hotels! - Fijne rustige B&B. Mooi ingericht met topbedden en een heerlijke douche. Iets verder uit het centrum al is het goed te lopen. Maar de tramhalte van lijn T3 is ook vlakbij.
- Janssens (10/5): Nachtje privacy bij Violet suites.. - De vriendelijkheid en netheid. Er viel me niets tegen, alleen dat het best prijzig was, zonder ontbijt.
- Martin (8/5): -
- gina (10/5): -
- Luca (7/5): -
- S. (10/5): Top verblijf! - Super mooie kamer. Schoon, groot, goed bed. Eigenaar gaf goede tips bij aankomst. Locatie is perfect, klein stukje lopen naar het oude centrum. Als je een lichte slaper bent vraag dan om een kamer die niet aan de straat ligt, want daar is best veel lawaai ‘s nachrs (althans toen wij er waren in het weekend) . Niets! Alles was top, kleine tip is eventueel een spiegel in de kamer
- Felci (10/5): Very spacious and comfortable room - Very comfortable, and spacious room with all facilities need spotless, light room, easy to get central , fresh crosant & waffles in the morning at the living hoste give a good wellcome and well explained where are the best place to visit providing a map .100 % recommend
Felci 🇧🇴 Not any complaints at all .everything was great
- Tanja (9/5): -
- Maliepaard (9/5): - Erg vriendelijke eigenaar die ons goed welkom heette en ons van tips voorzag. Nette kamer van alles voorzien, goed bed en fijn om een klein keukentje tot beschikking te hebben met een koelkast, vers drinkwater en koffie en thee met wat lekkers erbij. Super! De douche is fijn ruim, maar de douchekop zou ik vervangen voor een grotere... als krullenbol veel fijner 😄 en een deur zodat de warmte er lekker un blijft.
- Mr Padaloa (9/5): - Struttura pulita e confortevole, posizione ottima Letto un po' duro.

- ADRIAN (10/5): genial ubicación y atención por parte del host . si volvemos repetimos. la habitación está perfecta y las camas súper có -
- Matthew (9/5): Spacious, comfortable but poor soundproofing. - A warm welcome by the host, we really appreciated the hospitality. The room was absolutely stunning, clean, with a thoughtful, spacious and well curated decor/ layout. The beds were very comfortable, on a firm side which we like. The location was great, just a 10 min walk from the centre. The room we stayed in was the one facing the main road. This is not a room for a light sleeper as the road outside has a lot of traffic so falling asleep and staying asleep was impossible on our first night. My husband and I had to purchase ear plugs as it was impossible to fall asleep from all the traffic noise. This was our only concern.
- Guest (10/5): - Hartelijke ontvangst, prima kamer en bed, geen last van geluiden van de stad. We mochten onze tassen nog laten staan na uitchecken en ze op een later moment komen halen.
- Katharina (10/5): Super! - Die Unterkunft ist eine 12/10, wir kommen gerne wieder! Der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich und das Herz der Unterkunft: Nach der Ankunft hat er sich mit uns zusammengesetzt und auf einer Karte die Top-Spots in Ghent markiert, solche lokalen Tipps wissen wir immer sehr zu schätzen :-). Am Sonntag hat er uns einfach Schokobrötchen mitgebracht. Die Unterkunft war liebevoll eingerichtet mit viel Blick zum Detail. Unser Zimmer sah in der Realität noch besser aus, als auf den Fotos. Bett war komfortabel und sehr groß mit einer großen Bettdecke. Die Dusche war riesig und begehbar. Generell war die gesamte Unterkunft modern und sauber. Große und gesicherte Parkplätze direkt an der Unterkunft. In weniger als zehn Minuten Laufweg ist man in der Innenstadt von Ghent.
Danke für den besonderen Aufenthalt, wir haben es geliebt! :-) /
- Marc (8/5): -
- Nathalie (8/5): Leuk en aangenaam verblijf! - Proper, praktisch en goede ligging Misschien nog een spiegel in de kamer
- Melissa (9/5): I stayed in a bright, cheery, spacious room with a beautiful terrace in a lovely location! - The lighting of the apartment also gave the room a really cheerful and airy feel that was further elevated by how clean the room was. The terrace that was part of my room was super lovely, and I also really loved the big green plant in the room! It was also a super safe location so it's great for female solo travelers like myself! The breakfast offerings were a bit less than expected. While I did love having the Nespresso-style machine in my room, I had expected at least one simple protein-based option in the communal kitchen (like yogurt) based on the information given on the listing -- I have some blood sugar issues so I can't just have fruits and pastries for breakfast (i.e., what seemed like the main offerings in the communal kitchen).
- GEORGIOS (10/5): -
- Paul (8/5): A great option in Ghent - clean and stylish. - Lovely apartment near the centre of Ghent. Good facilities and really great apartment (one of three I think). A really good option in Ghent. Nothing.
- Sally (9/5): Very comfortable,good location -
- Marinka (10/5): - Hele fijne en leuk ingedeelde ruimte, mooie locatie, leuke ontvangst Niks!
- Rodrigo (7/5): Cómodo, limpio y bien ubicado, pero es bed solo, no Breakfast… - La habitación y la ubicación. Desayuno no incluido.
- Mathilde (8/5): Prima voor 2 nachtjes - Loopafstand centrum We sliepen aan de voorzijde, straatkant, we hadden wel wat last van het verkeer wat langs kwam, ook met de ramen dicht
- Adrienne (8/5): All in all, our stay was extremely pleasant and our host was extremely helpful and friendly. - It was extremely comfortable and offered excellent amenities. The kitchen was of a really good standard and generously stocked. It was easy to find our way around Ghent from Violet Suites. Our bedroom did not have a window, so lack of fresh air was a bit of a problem.
- Jeanne (10/5): Fantastisch - geweldig B&B vriendelijk ontvangst schone moderne kamer fijne bedden. Locatie 15 min lopen naar centrum niets!
- Robert (10/5): Comfortable and clean accommodation around 15 minutes walk to the centre - Comfortable room large bed roomy shower and owner was there when we arrived who was very helpful and knowledgeable regarding the history of Ghent. Upgraded but not sure what we got for the extra paid. There was a small terrace but did not use.
- Myrthe (10/5): Heel fijn! - Fijne licht appartement. Voorzien van alle gemakken. Op loopafstand (10 min) van het centrum. -
- Elise (10/5): - Wonderful place. Clean, comfortable and quiet. The rooms are really beautiful and there is a shared communal kitchen space outside the rooms equipped with most things you’d need. The hosts are also exceptionally lovely. Great location, only 10 min walk to city centre. N/A!
- Jolanda (8/5): Prima verblijf op loopafstand centrum. Bakker om de hoek. - perfecte locatie, prima om zelf ontbijt te regelen met aanwezig goed ingerichte keuken
- Judith (8/5): Prima locatie voor een verblijf in het mooie Gent - Netjes en schoon. Fijne keuken om te ontbijten. Alles aanwezig. Locatie op loopafstand centrum Niets te melden
- Cornelia (10/5): We enjoyed our stay, very happy with the welcoming and informative host. - Very nice host, clean, location at walking distance from city centre, comfy bed. Shared Kitchen area with fruits and drinks. The ensuite bathroom area is nice and clean, but built inside the room (wooden structure) so a bit noisy (opening and closing the toilet door) for your ‘roommate’ if you have to get up at night.
- Sietske (9/5): Fantastisch verblijf gehad! -
- Beatrix (10/5): Ghent stay in good location. - Located in Ghent this stay provided a good starting point to explore the city. The room was large and a common area had a fridge, snacks, and table and chairs seating. Fruit and snacks were a welcome addition. Coffee maker was available in our room and in the common area. Parking g was available for a cost. Keeping in touch with our host we were met on the street at our late arrival and walked to our parking area. This was especially helpful as the streets are a bit confusing. We did drive around the block a couple of times trying to locate Violet Suites. Street parking was difficult to find as we searched. If we did not have data on our phone we would have struggled to connect with the host as the suites are on an upper floor.
- Tanja (8/5): - Freundlicher Vermieter, persönliche Tipps für die Stadtbesichtigung. Guter Parkplatz. Nespresso Kapseln und Obstkorb. Alles perfekt und liebevoll. Die Whg liegt an der Hauptstraße und diese ist sehr laut, vor allem nachts, so dass schlafen mit offenem Fester nicht geht.
- jacques (10/5): Très belle chambre au calme - Bon accueil et B&B très confortable et bien situé Rien a signaler
- Leoni (9/5): Een ontspannen verblijf op een fantastische plek - Dat je als groep een gezamenlijke ruimte hebt om samen te komen, maar wel een eigen kamer per stel.
Heerlijk ruime kamers met alles wat je nodig hebt.
Een fantastisch verblijf! Tip: kussens voor de krukjes aan tafel.
- Florian (8/5): - Charmantes, geräumiges Zimmer in bestrickend zentraler Lage, netter, unkomplizierter Empfang, rustikal-ökologischer Eigenbau-Charme von Möblierung und Ausstattung, komfortables Bett, ideal gelegen für die Erkundung von Gent (und Brügge).
- Rafael (10/5): CONFORTABLE Y TRANQUILA - La habitacion era amplia con un muy buen baño y muchísima tranquilidad.
Temperatura dentro de la misma idonea.
No podemos valorar al personal porque cuando llegamos a la tarde/ noche no habia nadie en recepción .
Pero nos mantuvieron informados de como acceder, la cual te dan unas claves y no hubo ningún problema
Lugar muy tranquilo y a diez minutos andando del centro y de paradas de autobuses y tranvia.
A 15 minutos andando de la estación de tren Damport
Lo recomiendo y volveriamos sin lugar a dudas.
- Julie (4/5): - No door on the shower room, which was a bit strange. We didn't see the owner at all. Very hard beds.
- Juliana (10/5): -
- Thomas (7/5): -
- Abraham (8/5): -
- Lisa (9/5): Modern designer accommodation - Friendly welcome from Herman. Our suite Violet 3 was modern and clean. Loved the design. Communal kitchen had fridge, tea and coffee facilities and snacks. Ten mins walk to the beautiful centre of Ghent. Nice coffee shop called catberry nearby .
- Malissa (10/5): Leuk verblijf op een top locatie - De kamer is echt leuk en alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig. De gezamenlijke keuken is ook heel handig. Het bed was goed stevig, heerlijk geslapen. De locatie is ook top. Dicht bij het centrum en er liggen allerlei folders in de gezamenlijke ruimte. Parkeerplek (moet je van tevoren aanvragen) was ook heel goed! Snelle communicatie vanuit de host. Niks
- Jane (9/5): The owners have been very helpful to accommodate & provide our needs during our stay; even gave us a ride to the tra -
- Nancy (10/5): We would definitely recommend Violet Suites - Very clean. Very comfortable. We were not missing anything that we needed. About 1km from the city centre. Owners responded very quickly to any questions.
- Suzanne Levert (9/5): - L'accès à la cuisinette. Les fruits accessibles, le site à 25 minutes à pied du centre historique.
L'accueil du propriétaire
- Wanvisa (10/5): The apartment is located close to tourist attractions and train station. Clean and spacious rooms. - Flexible for leaving the luggage before checking in. Nice location and clean. None.
- Jantienbabette (9/5): Een heerlijke plek om te zijn! - Vriendelijke en hartelijke ontvangst. De kamer was heerlijk ruim en mooi ingericht. Er is een gemeenschappelijke keuken met kookfaciliteit. Alles netjes, schoon en compleet. Fijn dat er de mogelijkheid was om te parkeren. Een buitenruimte erbij was fijn geweest. het was mooi weer en het raam kon maar een stukje open.
- Joanne (8/5): -
- Marco (10/5): -
- Patrizia (9/5): - La posizione, la pulizia, la disponibilità dell'host
Camera molto carina e grande... bagno molto spazioso e particolare La camera era molto calda nonostante il ventilatore ..poche basi d'appoggio
- Markus (9/5): Schöne Unterkunft in Laufnähe zum Zentrum. - Das Zimmer war schön hell und zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Es gab genug Sitz- und Ablagegelegenheiten. Zu unserem Raum (Violet Suites II) gab es auch eine kleine Terrasse - zwar ohne Aussicht - zum Frühstücken und abends draußen sitzen aber toll. Schön war auch die Klimaanlage. Zu den Hauptsehenswürdigkeiten sind es 15-20 Minuten zu Fuß. Auf Anfrage bekommt man einen Stellplatz an der Unterkunft für das Fahrzeug für 15€ pro Tag. Nichts
- Shiang-Yin (8/5): -
- Rosario (4/5): Fracaso - Amplitud de la ducha y cómodo el colchón. La falta de espacio que rodea la cama grande y que al ser en dos pisos y no tener barandilla te podías caer al piso de abajo encima de la cama pequeña. Las escaleras de subida a la habitación son empinadas y muy estrechas. Éramos tres y solo dos había dos juegos de toallas.
- Morreale (8/5): -
- Julie (8/5): Good base for short stay in Gent - Good location to access centre of town but quiet area. Owner provided helpful suggestions regarding restaurants/things to see. Rooms were very dimply furnished but large and our room had access to a small courtyard. Bed was large and comfortable and there was access to a shared kitchen I couldn’t get the cooktop to work so a few basic instructions would have been helpful for it and oven - thought I am sure there was probably a manual if I’d looked. Pastries were provided for breakfast one day but not the next
- Peter (5/5): The accommodation is well thought out and comfortable, in the main, but breakfast lacking! - Although advertised as a bed and breakfast the latest web site says there is no meal plan - although tea, coffee, filtered water and a pre-wrapped small waffle and fruit is available! Although this would not constitute as an adequate 'breakfast' in the UK! It is also confusing and misleading to say there are kitchen appliances at your disposal when the hosts don't want you to cook or bring back takeaways! Indeed, there isn't even a bread knife! For this reason neither can it been deemed to be an Airbnb! As pleasant as the hosts are, I think they need to be clearer to their clients what kind of accommodation they are offering. The location was a good 15 minutes walk into the centre of Ghent, where the better eating places were. We stayed in a lovely large room - with terrace- however, suggest that the extremely large cheese plant be cut back somewhat as is taking up space where the hanging rail and shelving for clothes are! Think there could be been more information on local bakers, good nearby eateries etc. As we were staying for 5 nights, would have liked it if our bins had been emptied and handwash etc. topped up as very low on arrival!
- Caroline (8/5): Very good -
- Alessio (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lorraine (10/5): Spacious - The space of the accomodation was lovely and the terrace was a bonus. The steps leading to the terrace. They were a little precarious.

The frites place on the same street was nice and the owner was very helpful (NB: cash only!) Nothing. There’s no negative. Easily walkable to Central Ghent.
- Milan (10/5): Cozy place in nice neighborhood. - Nice place in nice neighborhood.
- Edvards (10/5): Exceptional -
- Madeleine (9/5): Stylish space and friendly hosts - The hosts were so welcoming and accommodating. We had our baby with us and she went out of her way to provide a cot and sheets for us. Easy walk into the beautiful Ghent town Centre. Lots of space in the room and very comfortable.
- Emily (10/5): Lovely and comfortable stay in Ghent - Loved this place! Spacious and comfortable rooms with everything you'd need, very comfy beds, and a great location to explore Ghent (~15 min walk from city center). The host Els was very friendly and responsive as well.

- J4joey (8/5): Very good - Violet Suites are a little quirky and we loved it. Els was really lovely and extremely accommodating. We arrived a bit early and even though she wasn't quite ready she accommodated is and made us at home. The breakfast was really good - eggs, bread, yoghurt, cereals, cheese, meat juice, coffee, tea and on our last morning croissants. The location was also great, easy access to the city and stations (Dampoort) and tram. Ghent is a foodies paradise. Would definitely recommend.
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional -
- Eric (9/5): Quiet, comfortable, and private - The woman who runs this is very jovial and helpful. The room was quiet and private. The quiet air conditioning was very much appreciated as the city was hot at the time. The location was excellent for the part of town we needed access to. Bed was very comfortable. Overall, a nice contemporary design at a fair price. Thank you! The breakfast was minimal. That's ok. Just slightly disappointing.
- Catharine (10/5): Els was super communicative and great to deal with. - I booked a weekend here for my sister and brother-in-law for their wedding anniversary - they loved it. Nothing - all great.
- Connie (7/5): Comfortable bed and good selection of breakfast - Host is responsive and friendly Noise from traffic
- Leonie (3/5): Could have been great, but we didn’t sleep much due to the light that we couldn’t switch off during the night. - Everything was nice. The motion detector in the room was going off constantly and it wasn’t possible to switch the light off during the night.
- Julia (9/5): Superb -
