Hotel Andromeda is an excellent opportunity for an enjoyable stay. We liked the luxe room with view on the sea and terrasse on the very top. The breakfast is gorgeous. The wellness center is absolutely great, with exception of the harman as the temperature is not high enough. The personnel acted great and was responsive. The overall atmosphere is fantastic.

Sehr schönes Hotel aus den 30iger-Jahren. Freundliches, lösungsorientiertes und zuvorkommendes Personal. Top Lage. Schöne grosse Zimmer. Da Alter des Hotels hat seine Tücken. Zum Teil kann man die schön grossen Fenster nicht öffnen und es ist sehr ringhörig. Wir waren zwei Nächte da und konnten wegen einer grossen Gruppe junger Sportler (es fand ein Fussball-Turnier statt), welche durchgehend Party im Zimmer machten, sehr schlecht schlafen. Das Hotelmanagement hat sich dafür bei uns in aller Form entschuldigt und uns erklärt, dass sie trotz Security-Einsatz die Situation nicht besser in den Griff bekommen konnten. Fazit! Das Hotel empfehlen wir sehr gerne.

We loved this hotel. While booking and reading about the hotel, we were slightly concerned that it would be a bit too “funky” (we are in our 60s and 70s), but it was definitely a nice place to stay for all ages. First of all, we had requested a low floor room, and the request was well taken into account, which is not the case in all hotels. We had booked a big room and it was really wonderful. The room was nice, with separate bathroom and toilet, and with a wooden (or fake wooden) floor, which we always appreciate. Much cleaner and nicer than all those carpet floors in many places. Reception staff was kind, polite, quick and knowledgeable. Breakfast was outstanding. The bar in the evening was very pleasant. Location is excellent. Some minor points we did not like (and hence the 4 “star” rating) were the following. The mattress was very hard, for us too hard, but some people might like it. The floor in the shower was too slippery, this can easily be avoided by other materials. The shower was already narrow, and with the (unnecessary) soapdish attached to the wall it became even narrower. There was space enough for a larger shower. When we came back to the room after 3 PM, it was still not cleaned (the ”YES” sign to request cleaning was put up before 10 AM). Understandable, because it was a very busy Friday with lots of changes, and a basket was put in front of the door later with new towels etc … All these were minor issues, and we will certainly return to this place.

The Leopold is an internally stunning hotel, usefully close to the beach and the Kursaal. I realise that the shape of the rooms is dictated by the shape of the building, but mine had some annoying quirks. For example, no soap at the wash basin, so you have to leap across the room into the shower to squeeze some from the wall-mounted dispenser. The towels are in the toilet. There is no flat surface to write on. One of the shelves wastes space by gluing a tissue box in the middle. There are three electric sockets, one halfway up the wall, so there is nowhere to attach the kettle, and two you have to get down on your knees to use. I am too old for that. Sorry to nitpick. The staff are mostly lovely, but if you are on reception and on the phone, at least acknowledge the guest standing in front of you, trying to check in, while you are completing your phone call.

TV with streaming services was a plus. Washing machine present and tabs provided by you. Washing machine and vacuum present! Coffee machine present but no pods and no precommunication any device there is. No towels available. Bets clean coated, quiet location, but right next to the seaside.

The hotel is perfectly situated close to the beach, restaurants and bars. It’s one stop on the tram from the railway station with the stop directly opposite the hotel. I booked direct and couldn’t have been more pleased how easy it was as I required two twin rooms. We stayed five nights and the rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable although a little dated, the bar was comfortable and relaxing and every member of staff was very friendly and professional. The price included breakfast which was one of the best hotel breakfast we’ve had in awhile. Thank you for great stay.

So there are a lot of ”horror-reviews” about this place and after staying for two nights I can somehow see where it comes from but I still think most of the criticism is WAY too harsh. I went there for the time of two Rammstein-shows and it was okay. The staff was very friendly and helpful, my room got cleaned every day after I left and the kind of ”secret” parking which is a bit narrow, so not for beginners, was a nice safety factor. I did have a weird dark spot on my blanket but upon inspection I figured it was basically just a discoloured spot in the fabric itself - obviously doesn't look nice, but was definitely not a hygienical concern; just a case of ”sheets that have been around a bit too long”; still everything got cleaned and washed every morning; I did see the cleaning staff in action every morning. I didn't expect to stay in a super extra luxury hotel, but a nice little accomodation in the city center to get to my shows and then have a few nice beers at the end before returning - and I got exactly that. The hotel IS kind of noisy, as the building itself seems to be rather old, so the walls are kind of thin, be prepared for that. But other than that, it really is by far not as bad as some drama queens on here describe it. I had a nice time in Oostende and the staff was super nice and helpful. Is it a family hotel? Probably not. Is it okay if you're staying alone or with a group of adults and are planing to have some fun in the city? Definitely.
