The hotel is in an elegant building immediately opposite the train station in Leuven and a good 10 minute walk down the main avenue to the historic and interesting centre The room was fine - clean and tidy but, in my case had no views with the one bedroom window looking out onto a shaft (popular with pigeons, though they were not a disturbance and I had a good night's sleep!) Breakfast was included in my rate and was an excellent buffet with hot and cold food, pastries and fresh fruit all on offer

Very, very noise surroundings Not a single night sleep without being woken up mulitple times by noise from the street or the bars. We stayed at 3rd floor - but still very loud. The location is central - but still we were taken by surprise of the very noisy area.

Ligging in centrum is perfect, onze kamer was echter klein en gedateerd (smoezelige gescheurde vloerbedekking en smoezelig voegwerk in de badkamer), er hing een rioollucht in het trappenhuis en de gangen.

Faire enough

The whole stay was good. The breakfast was amazing. The only problem was that the single room with the one bed, this one bed is really small and the room is small in comparison with the double beds rooms. Next time I would prefer to book a double bed room.

L'hôtel correct pour les séjours courts

L'hôtel correct pour les séjours courts. Bon petit-déjeuner. Petite chambre. Lit confortable. Rapport qualité/prix moyen. Pas de gel douche. La pomme de douche cassé. L'hôtel avec grand potentiel mais il manque soin.

de kamer was netjes en precies ruim genoeg. Het ontbijtbuffet was prima. Er was alleen veel lawaai op straat en hoewel wij op de 4e verdiep verbleven, kon je dat zeer goed horen. Maar verder twee 👍!

Mooie locatie, maar het hotel is een teleurstelli.

Onze ontvangst was onsympathiek na 3 maal bellen. Gelukkig beter de volgende ochtend en ook het ontbijt was goed en vriendelijk. In de slaapkamer werkte 1 op 4 lampen. De badkamer heeft zeep maar geen body lotion bijvoorbeeld. Zeer basic maar te duur voor wat men beloofd. Ik kom niet terug.

when we arrived, at 7 pm, there was no receptionist. we were given a different room than what had been required and the person in charge (waitress) couldn't help much as there was no receptionist available. Given that the hotel for that day was fully booked, they should have a person in charge to support customers.

An old hotel, although clean and all worked well. A great stay for the money. Across the road from the railway station, and about a 15 minute walk to the old town. A good breakfast, good shower, no safe in the room.

良し悪しは部屋によると思います

私が滞在した部屋はルーベン駅側の部屋でした。 陽当たりも良く、目の前の広場が景色としてみれました。 またバスタブがある部屋だったので滞在中は湯船でリラックスできる部屋でした。 バスタブ付きの部屋はラッキーでした。バスタブがない部屋も多いようです。 部屋の設備はエアコンもドライヤーもなく夏の暑い日は厳しいかもしれません。最近のホテルに良くあるUSB給電ポートなどもありません。 冬場は暖房器具があるのでおそらく問題ないかと思います。 私が滞在した時期は10月だったので冷暖房なしでも問題ない時期でした。 エレベーターは手動で開ける扉で少し怖かったです。普段は階段を利用しました。 朝食は毎日同じメニューでパン、ベーコン、ハム、卵、ヨーグルトという感じで長期のかたは少し飽きるかもしれません。
