Good hotel but there is no free parking!!
The hotel was good and the rooms were clean if a little cramped. Main concern was the marketing of the hotel as including free parking. This is not the case and should be removed from the Hotels.com listing for this hotel. Some inconvenience for us as we had to find public parking within the town.

A mixed experience. Our room was flooded and we had to stay the night in a room with a drip because we couldn’t get through on the publicly available number as it was late at night. Yes, we received a free breakfast and were told we would receive a reimbursement for the nights stay but this never came through and when I contacted the hotel, a Manager named Benny said a reimbursement would not be happening as we had received a free breakfast to compensate. It’s a shame because the staff there were lovely and apologetic but was disappointed they didn’t keep their word about the reimbursement of my night’s stay.

Gezellig, gerieflijk en klein. Net naast zeedijk.
Nog beter dan wat de beschrijving op hotels.com liet verwachten. De kamers aan de straatkant hebben zijdelings zeezicht, maar ook zon in de ochtend en dan kan het warm worden in de zomermaanden. Geen ventilator of airco, maar dat verwacht ik niet voor die prijscategorie. Mooi streekgebonden ontbijtbuffet. Middelkerke is een rustig stadje aan zee met goede verbindingen.

Prijs kwaliteit is dit een zeer goed hotel.
Het buffet was zeer uitgebreid vers en lekker.
En mooie ruimte voor ontbijt met hondje.
Je hoort erbij en zit eens niet andere kant of bar.
Personeel is zeer vriendelijk.
Standaardkamer is klein maar modern en net.
Alsook de badkamer.

Toch veel comfort voor een studio, TV in elke kamer, heel mooie badkamer, en de gratis flessen water. Bijkomend zalig dat je op de zeedijk zelf zit. Het gevoel dat je op het terrasje wat te kijk zit voor voorbijgangers wend snel en niet storend
