Best stay so far. Clean room, modern design, big desk for writing and enjoying coffee, pillow bed comfy, toilet clean and shower all working very well. Very very comfortable stay. Reception great service, recommended me a shopping mall as my shoe sole came off. Im an official fan of Van Der Valk brand now.
Xiu Hui, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The hotel is excellent. The room was very good with a comfortable bed and breakfast is amazing. The only downside is that the bus does not run at the weekend so it is a 15 min walk to the tram stop at the hospital.

Food superb and great value
paul, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent stay

While it’s in an industrial area - perfect for the arena nearby - it’s also extremely welcoming, comfortable and family friendly. The food (breakfast and dinner) were both standout, the room was spacious and comfortable and the staff very friendly. The whole place is very tranquil. We’ll definitely go back.

Great hotel to stay with family.

Another great stay at this hotel for us as a family. When ever we have the opportunity to stay in Belgium we chose Van der Valk for simply great servive we receive. This year on our return to UK from our trip to Europe we chose this hotel again and our experience again was lovely. From check in to the room choice and great breakfast we received an outstanding service.
