Ratings and reviews
2.0 / 5.0
It is an historic hotel with many antiquities in the décoration. The location is perfect near the canal. It is quiet but there is no escalator and the room was on the 5th floor.
The beakfast was included and we liked the food.
But ithe price for a night is a bit expensive. The owner was a gentleman .
4.0 / 5.0
This hotel had great ratings but my room had ratty threadbare towels, the walls were dirty, and there were things still under the bed from previous guests. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was great.
4.0 / 5.0
Lovely stay in an amazing property. Big double room with a view over the garden, great breakfast and good location for walking around Ghent.
The property is very old and packed with antiques and artefacts. It is clean and the room was made up each day but it’s individual and lived in which we appreciated. Would recommend.

Great location and atmosphere. Excellent service and breakfast in a medieval room.
1.5 / 5.0
OK if you want rustic / basic - plenty of both. The bones of the building are great, the breakfast is OK and the proprietor is very pleasant
BUT: Very limited reception, no lift, no air conditioning, no shower, plenty of street noise all night. Think student digs in an atmospheric building.
Not for everyone.
5.0 / 5.0
Lovely hotel in a very historic building. The hotel owner is so kind and friendly, making me feel very welcome. The room was comfortable and quiet, and the hotel is in a very good location as you can easily walk to a lot of places. Breakfast was excellent, and I would definitely stay here again.
5.0 / 5.0
This hotel has a lot of character. I hear when people say it could benefit from some modernization, but not at the expense of making it another cookie-cut hotel. It os definitely a wonderful choice for travelers looking for experiences, rather than for tourist looking for the standard Marriott. In addition, Peter, the hotellier is quite a character, efficient, professional and nice personality. I would stay here again if I come back to Ghent.

2.0 / 5.0
I was going to give 1 star review for the property but the breakfast was actually good, so 2 stars overall. Everything is very old in the hotel. We got a room on the 3rd floor. No elevator, nobody to help with the luggage. Beds squeak whenever you move. No air-conditioning. If you open the window, too much noise from outside. Garbage truck comes at 6:30 and for 15 min there is banging.

The hotel is in a very good location, close to many of the main attractions, shopping and dining areas. The hotel itself is an old building which has been decorated in keeping with its age. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The room was large, clean and had all the facilities I needed. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Decent hotel in a very old house. The medieval ambiance was interesting. No lift, so long flight of stairs to climb. Family room was very spacious. Great breakfast included in the morning.
3.0 / 5.0
Dirty, dust on the lamps, on the curtains all over the room, on the wardrobe.
Mosquitos were huge, I killed one on the sheet and the blood stain it left was there even the day after the sheets should be changed.
Towel in the bathroom, although renewed, it had some stains.
Nevertheless the service was good, the personnel very kind, the breakfast was great and the location was perfect close-to-everywhere.

A perfect base for exploring the city. Erasmus Hotel is centrally and conveniently located, just a few minutes' walk from Tram No.1 for easy access to and from Gent Sint Pieters Station, to UZ Gent and beyond. The Hotel was quiet, and comfortable, managed by a convivial Host and his team.Thank you for a memorable stay.

The hotel is lovely and easy walking to all the sites. My room was ready early so they let me check in. Also, I left my converter plug at home, but they had one there that they gave me. Breakfast was also lovely. Eggs to order, cereal, toast, waffles, meats and cheese.

Loved the quirky historic character of this hotel, which has wonderfully central location, and the staff were excellent. The huge bedroom overlooking the garden was amazing but needs better lighting (as does the dining room) and some furniture was a bit tired; the drapes over the bed were also a bit dusty. Good breakfast in a beautiful room, but the unless you have a table by the window the light is rather gloomy, especially in early February. Would love to return in the summer!

2.5 / 5.0
This hotel is in an old house,with a good location near historic area. It is not elegant, but the staff are great, the breakfast is free (and excellent) and I would recommend it for individuals and families who want a small quiet place to stay. There is no elevator, however. As I found everywhere in Belgium, the staff all speak English and are happy to use it with visitors.
