Pros (+) The Post is absolutely gorgeous and within walking distance of all of the historical sightseeing locations within Ghent. Our room was at the front of the hotel with incredible views of the cathedral.

Annmarie, May 2025
Pros (+) The hotel itself was very cool. The stairways and rooms were gothic and brought the best vibes. We enjoyed walking down the spiral staircase through the honesty bar. There were little details that just brought a lot of character into the stay. The staff was very welcoming and attentive.
Cons (-) There wasn’t onsite parking and the instructions were a bit confusing for parking. The hotel is in a car free zone. However, parking sint michels was pretty close.

Todd, Apr 2025
Pros (+) The hotel location is awesome, smack dab in the middle of a beautiful part of the city. The hotel is rather elegant and the rooms are well appointed and appropriately sized for 1898.
Cons (-) The chairs everywhere in the hotel are tiny. Not small, tiny. I'm old. Well, 72 years old and arthritic. If I would have know about the tiny chairs, I would have opted out for breakfast. I was so embarrassed trying to get in and out of the chairs in the restaurant I almost didn't want to go back the next morning. The rooms are tiny. "Tea and Coffee" are included, but hidden behind an elaborate Hon...

Jacqueline, Apr 2025
Pros (+) All the staff were excellent and couldn't do enough for you. Being right in the centre of Ghent there was easy walking access to all the locations. The breakfast was excellent and hot food cooked on the spot if required, however, the choice for the continental breakfast was more than enough.
Cons (-) The room and corridor was a little on the dark side. A bit more lighting would have helped - but a very minor issue.

Pros (+) Could not fault the experience at all. From the moment we arrived to when we left the staff were attentive and could not do enough to help. If you are driving, we recommend you request a parking spot. The hotel has reserved spaces in the underground car park a short walk away. We stayed in a duplex room with the bathroom upstairs which was a lovely feature. Location amazing for exploring Ghent. Ca...
