This is a very nice hotel located near some of the historic university buildings in Leuven. It's a 15 minute walk to the town centre so it is conveniently located. It's also across the road from the OH Leuven football stadium so if you're in town for a match, its very handy for that. Breakfast was good and the honour bar was well stocked. Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Obe downside is it lacks a restaurant for the evening but there are plenty of very good restaurants in Leuven.

We had a really nice stay, 7 nights. Only a couple of points, there is no draws in the room, so you have to leave the small things on show. We never had breakfast, as we know the area, having lived there for 12 years, but at €25 euros seems quite expensive.

Liked this property. Rooms were compact but very clean and cleverly designed to maximise space, although the bathroom areas were a little cramped. The shower was open to the room separated by just a curtain and a 2-way mirror, so not too much privacy, in case that might be an issue for you. But the whole space was nicely decorated and thought out. Beds were comfortable, and again sensible design allows you to store a number of suitcases easily in the room. Only real thing missing from the room was a bedside table.
Staff were very friendly and helpful, and the grounds/garden were really nice to spend time around. It is walking distance into the town, with the immediate environs consisting of mediaeval streets as if they hadn't been touched in hundreds of years. We didn't choose breakfast (€22) so cannot comment on the quality but it did look like a reasonable spread of a continental breakfast. The gym area was not so useful, a small room with 3 machines in it, but at least there is one.
Would definitely return for a short stay, although the rooms may be a little too compact for longer stays.

This is a beautiful hotel, but they should have warned us that there would be construction noises when we booked. It was too late by the time we arrived to check in. 9:00 is not terribly early, but we were exhausted from traveling.
Also, we booked a room for three people -- there were only two coffees and not enough towels. When my son called down for an extra pillow for his bed (the main bed had two pillows each per person) someone showed up and handed him a pillow without a pillowcase. Otherwise, we had a nice stay -- the beds were very comfortable and the room was clean and spacious. The problems were pretty minor, but seemed worth noting, because it's a relatively expensive place to stay, and those things were surprising.

Great location, easily accessible by road for morning pick-ups. Very friendly staff, quiet, clean and very comfortable.
Also within 15mins walk of Leuven center and the Christmas market.

I have stayed in this property before and always loved it. This time I was traveling for leisure and decided to book there as well.. as expected it was a clean hotel... beautiful garden, friendly staff
But what I did not expect (nor did the staff) was an issue with the air quality in my room. Why I give 5 stars is the way they handled the issue
1. They were overbooked - so could not move me
2. they called the technical staff and it appears they could not fix it
3. they called another hotel, booked me (with breakfast), booked a cab - all on their dime!
I cannot say any Marriott or Hilton had ever done this to even their elite customer (which I am)
I will stay here again.... service like theirs is what makes a stay worthwhile

I liked the room. It was cosy and nice designed. The personnel was very welcome and nice. It was actually more, than what I've expected. The beds were the hardness I do prefer.

This hotel is in an amazing location but overpriced (ie. parking is 12 euros/night, breakfast is 19 euros pp.) No real help was given to find alternative parking, and cleaning/housekeeping service was minimalist to say the least: after 3 days, the bed was only folded back, stains of coffee mugs still there on every surface, sink and shower left untouched. Rooms are small, to the point of thinking twice, if you're both standing up, on whether you really want to go put that wrapper in the bin or better wait till he's in the loo (so tiny his knees are touching the door, and so poorly insulated I can hear everything)

My room required a repaint, there were marks on the walls and the bathroom looked a little tired. I am aware that there is ongoing refurbishment so hopefully these issues will be resolved.
The setting was in a very nice area, quiet and picturesque and the garden was beautiful.

We were not told of renovations going on at the hotel, and we were put in the room right next door to where they where working starting at 8:00 AM.
Other than that the Hotel was nice and in a nice area.

My second time there. Loved it. Close enough yet far enough from the city centre. Nice surrounds. Great university park area for jogging. Nice little pub with a terrace just up the road. Good breakfasts and very friendly staff.

First time staying here. Convenient for work and on the edge of the town. Easy to get to and from. Location is quite and peaceful and I’m sure beautiful to relax at in summer. Parking is limited. Hotel is a little dated but clean and tidy.
