Hotels near Lourdon, kaas en delicatessen, Brasschaat

Pros: - decent location; about 7mins walk from the Antwerp Centraal, and 2mins from Flixbus busstop, though in a relatively quiet corner. - they have a small common dining area on the ground floor with microwave, fridge, kettle and vending machines selling snacks and coffee. the coffee machine needs some upkeeping though, and the snacks vending machine was done during our period of stay. Cons: - if you stay on the lower level floors be prepared to keep your curtains closed - the whole room can be seen clearly from outside the hotel. - room has everything you need but can't help feeling like it's hollow, barren and empty; there's barely any interior works done to the room. - no kettle in the room and you will need to deposit 10euros to borrow one.

Basic, very unimpressive stay, we arrived late and had a family room. A double + single for my teenage child. They must have given us the worst room in the hotel. The room was dark and dingy, window opened up to a brick wall not far away, and the single bed was placed in a tiny room not much bigger than the single bed. Very claustrophobic. In fact could have been used as a cupboard. My suggestion is to open up the room and remove the wall and move everything around. My child slept with me in the bed. I would not have expected her to sleep in that tiny boxed up area. It just did not feel nice. So all 3 of us slept in the double bed. We didn't have any spare pillows when I requested spares. We didn't have a shower gel either, and the bath towels were so small they didn't even wrap around you I was pretty disappointed and requested to be moved. They moved us the next day. The room had a double bed and a sofa bed. Well, I don't know which was worse. That sofa bed was so hard it was like sleeping on the floor. The breakfast was limited. They best day was Sunday, and we noticed each day that we had less on the buffet as the days went on. The cornflakes were stale. The pancakes miserable. No hot items other than eggs and beans. Just very basic. We chose this hotel because of the parking. However, because we had a big car, we were told it would not fit in the car park. Therefore, the only good thing that was good about this hotel was the location which is close to shops and restaurants and the train station. I did speak to the reception manager the next day and stated my points. She was polite and helpful. Took my points on board. However, I'm not sure if anything will be done about it! For a 4 star hotel and the money we paid per night I would expect more! I don't think I would come back again.

We booked a night. Location was good. Very beautiful hotel, clean modern room with beautiful view. Pool/Sauna facilities such as towels etc were good. Parking was free. We will surely come back. Tip(minpoint): Sometimes it is useful to have a ventilator for guests who want to use it in winter.It was just a little too hot in the room around the air-conditioning at 18.

We (couple) took an apartment with separated room, and it was roomy and very quiet. Everything was clean, and almost as important, new (2023). I asked in my reservation for a second duvet for the bed, as my better half is a duvet-hogger, and it was there when we arrived. It was a double width too, so we ended up with lots of duvet on the bed, but as the bed was wide enough, that was no problem. The pillows where a bit high for our taste. There were three to choose, and the thinnest one was just on the line for us, but we slept all right. Bed is confy, with that ”thick mattress with thin mattress on top” concept. Movement from one side to the other travels more that in a full viscoelastic mattress, but less than in a spring one, so it was ok for us. The hotel has two buildings, connected by a first-floor gangway with apartments on the sides. We got an apartment, the number 111, that was in that connection, and it was really quiet, the windows looking to some inside court, rather wide, and I think no neighbouring apartments at all. We went at the time of some big festival in Antwerp, and we heard nothing either from outside or from the neighbours. Only drawback of this particular room is that the bathroom is adapted for wheelchairs, so the shower is covered by just a curtain and with a couple of supports that restrict movement a bit, but that was a minor inconvenience for us. On the plus side, the bathroom was really big. We liked the decoration, and the lighting possibilities too. The oven is a combination microwave-grill, and was clean too, as I say, everything is rather new so that can change with time. All in all, a very good experience.

Small, clean, affordable hotel located next to Central station. The room was basic but cute and comfortable. The beds were comfortable. We had a double bed with a twin bed bunk bed above which was perfect for our family of 3. There’s soap and towels, but no shampoo, hairdryer, kettle, or aircon. The window opens only a few inches, unless you get them to unlock it. We brought a portable fan, so that helped on such a warm day. There’s a Lidl supermarket next door and a cafe a block away. A couple blocks away is the diamond district with an interesting mixture of Hasidic Jews and middle eastern Muslim immigrants. The city is very walkable from here. From the station, the Meir is about 10 minutes walk and the Grote Markt is about 20 minutes.

The hotel is located 5 mins walk from Central Station (down the side, not towards the front), so great when arriving by train. Easy to walk to the main parts of town. Check in was at a couple of tables to the left of the entrance. Had a clean twin room and even after we pushed the 2 beds apart properly, there was plenty of space. Large bathroom with plenty of space around and under the sink for personal toiletries, although nice hotel toiletries (hand wash, moisturizer, shampoo and conditioner) were supplied. For some reason we had 2 shampoos in the walk in shower and when we told housekeeping when going out and asked for shower gel, we were left with another shampoo. This was not an issue though as we'd brought our own stuff so just used that instead. Complimentary bottle of still water provided every day which was nice, although the tap water is perfectly clean and drinkable. Flavoured (fresh mint or fruit) water, apples and gummies provided on a table near the entrance/exit, which was a nice touch. Staff very friendly and helpful. We didn't have the breakfast at the hotel as there are so many other options nearby in the town and our main reason for going to Antwerp was to eat locally.

Discovered this brand new hotel near the Central Station. The hotel is intended for longer stays, although I only stayed 1 night. The rooms are studio apartments with kitchenette. My room had a Murphy bed (first time for me) and it was super comfy. The hotel also has really nice gym equipment and I was able to do an interval training on the hi-tech treadmill. For a new hotel, the staff were amazing, so friendly and helpful. If staying in Antwerp again, I would definitely stay here.

Well there are not enough words to describe this beautiful hotel . The location was perfect the facilities the staff all very helpful . The breakfast was one of the best Hilton's I have stayed at for a long time . Fresh fruits great eggs and breads . So much choice and the staff were so helpful . Thank you all

A great hotel. Price/quality was okay. The room was fine and very clean and the bed was fine. The shower was a little less. When you left the mixer on the same position it felt like a ice bath, the second after you were screwed your ball from your back, but fortunately this was well cooled back. The free exchange-bathing arrangement provided the ”working class” wellness experience!

Attractive common area. Friendly checkin staff. Well appointed rooms a little on the small side. Housekeeping only every other day. Come on covid is over. Tome yo get back to regular schedule. Breakfast is an extra but not great we you consider the cost. Fair price.
