*History & Culture*
Make sure to reserve at least a few days to visit and learn more about Gent’s deep history and cultural landmarks! We recommend visiting Google’s top-rated Gravensteen attraction – a 10th century majestic castle built in a moat offering a stunning backdrop of the city. Why not also visit the historic city centre and admire the fascinating Gothic and Romanesque architecture? Saint Bavo’s Cathedral and Saint Nicholas’ Church are prominent examples of this architectural style, along with an intricately detailed interior. For art enthusiasts, the Museum voor Schone Kunsten (Museum of Fine Arts) is a must-see, containing thousands of exhibitions and preserved pieces of art from the late Middle Ages all the way up to the first half of the 20th century. Other notable mentions include the Museum of Contemporary Art, Korenlei, and Kasteel van Ooidonk.

On the outskirts of Gent lies the Bourgoyen-Ossemeersen Nature Preserve – covering 230 hectares of marshland, wetlands, farmlands, meadows, and canals as well as many species of birds. If you want to see more diverse plant life and biodiversity, head on over to the Ghent University Botanical Gardens. Here you will have the chance to discover over 10,000 plant species from all around the world! Need a break from the city? No problem – take a stroll down one of the many beautiful city parks, with Citadel Park, Muinkpark, and Koning Albert I Park being a stone’s throw away.

Wonderful stay, fantastic location. Worked well for our family. Would caution the spiral staircase to the bedroom is very steep. Fine for us but wouldn’t be good for older folks or toddlers. Very clean, beautiful view. Excellent host! Would definitely stay again!!

What an outstanding location and apartment for visiting Ghent. You are five minutes from the tram to get to the train station and minutes from every store or restaurant you might want including the amazing Himschoot bakery right outside your door. The apartment is beautiful and bright and even bigger than it appears online. It was a major highlight of our visit and we will definitely be back!

A lovely spacious apartment right in the centre of Gent with a balcony area on the roof top to look over the city. Within easy walking distance of everything in Gent with many tram stops nearby and a couple of bakeries right on the doorstop. We really enjoyed our stay here and Gent is a lovely place to visit, you can just wander round with places to eat and drink everywhere you turn. The castle is well worth a visit and the boat trips are definitely worth it.

This property made for us what was probably the perfect holiday. The apartment was perfectly located in the centre of Ghent and Anthony, the owner, was politeness personified. We couldn’t recommend this highly enough. I would certainly return with other friends - really enjoyed our stay. Well done.

We couldn’t have asked for a better place for our family of 4 to stay for a few days in Gent. Centrally located, ample space, comfortable, with fantastic views of one of the town squares, the castle and churches above the rooftops. Anthony was easy to work with—proactive communication with all the details we needed, and responsive for any questions. We would love to come again!

Perfect location!
Perfect location!
The location is so close to everything you want. Restaurants, bars, castle, museums, graffiti street, etc is minutes walk away. You only get one key and that can be logistical issue when traveling with multiple couples, but not to big of an issue. There is an elevator that helps ease the effort to get in and out of the place. We fell in love with the city and people. The square you view from apt window is very busy and plenty of tourist visit in groups, but leave just as quick as they came in on tour buses. Definitely want to go back one day and would stay here again if available.

Ein Traum!
Ein Traum!
Sowohl die Wohnung als auch Anthony als Gastgeber sind "outstanding": Wohnung liegt absolut zentral in der Altstadt und obwohl vor dem Haus das pralle Leben tobt, hört man dank der schallisolierten Fenster absolut nichts. Die Kommunikation mit dem Gastgeber Anthony lief hervorragend und wir fühlten uns stets sehr gut betreut. Diese Wohnung ist eine absolute Empfehlung und wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.
