« Mr K G. »

No hotel can be all things to all persons so your hotel was perfect for a business stay in the week. I had a lot of spare time so it was a little bit remote from the centre

Our hotel has responded to the review

Dear Ken. Thank you for your kind review. We are glad our hotel was convenient for you. We hope everything else was to your satisfaction. We look forward to welcome you back again in the future. Best regards, Kenneth Claerbout, General Manager

« Nice hotel, very good service »

Cleanliness of the room as expected,. Location near the highway, but quieter than expected. Very good breakfast: a lot of options (cheese, ham, sausages, jam, pastries), and with natural orange juice!

Our hotel has responded to the review

Dear Joan, Thank you for your positive review! We are pleased that your recent stay with us was a good experience. We appreciate your compliments on our service, the breakfast and all the facilities.

« Basic but worn out. »

Friendly pleasant staff. Room small, rather worn out, bed linen grubby with holes and burn marks etc, pillows were just gross. Kind of makes your skin crawl. Just a one night stay so I put up with it but I will never be back here.

Our hotel has responded to the review

Dear Steph, Thank you for your review. We are so sorry for the inconvenience caused during your stay. We assure that all our rooms are well-maintained and cleaned thoroughly.

« Good location, clean and tidy »

Hotel and staff overall are very good, location of hotel suits my needs for locality to business. Breakfast in my opinion is too expensive for the choice you get, quality of food is somewhat lacking. I have never eaten and evening meal there, always visit the Houten Hand down the road.

Our hotel has responded to the review

Dear Sean, Thank you for taking time to review your recent experience. It is rewarding to hear that you had an overall pleasant stay with us, and we appreciate your compliment towards our dedicated team members. However, we do regret that you were not entirely satisfied with our breakfast. We believe that we offer a good variety of quality products, and we would like to point out that our selection is currently larger than before. For our guests who want a simple breakfast, we also offer a coffee and croissant formula at the bar for just five euros. Of course, we value your feedback as this will help us make improvements for our future guests. Thank you for highlighting our central location between Brussels and Ghent; we are glad that this was beneficial to you. It would be a pleasure to have you return on another occasion. Best regards, Kenneth Claerbout, General Manager

« Good stay but nothing special »

I had a n OK experience with the hotel. I had to come for business travel and the hotel is relatively close to the office. The hotel is nice and tidy but during the night I really noticed that the walls are really thing because of the night noises if you know what I mean ;)

« Over priced what we get »

Our reserved room was family room (king size bed + 2 singles), but when we got there our room was changed two single bed room without informing us and the same price. Also, someone (I guess cleaner) smoked in our room before we enter, tab end was left outside our window and stink of smoking smell in the room!!

Our hotel has responded to the review

Dear Kansai. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are sorry to hear that your recent stay with us was not satisfying at all. We do apologise for the inconvenience you might have faced regarding your room. We try to ensure our guests are satisfied at all levels and find the most suitable way to find the best solution without delay.

We look forward to welcoming you again. Best regards, Kenneth Claerbout, General Manager

« Awful »

We have booked and paid a family room (double/ king size bed + 2 single beds room), however, our room was changed to a 2 single beds without refund and explanation. The room was dirty and cleaner smoked and left a tab end st outside window. Mattress is cheap quality and uncomfortable. Never stray again. Avoid!!

« hot rooms »

You put us on the 3rd floor. ..with air conditioning full blast the whole afternoon. ....the room was 27 degrees. After telling the front desk they put us on the 2nd floor. ...with air conditioning the evening that room was 25 degrees. It was better with the window open as the evening was cool for the night but the noise. ...... We really appreciated the help from the front desk but I think with summers as of lately you should invest in a new (silent) airconditioning system

Our hotel has responded to the review

Dear Thomas. We appreciate that you took the time to share your experience with us. Thank you for mentioning the great lengths our team went to in order to make your stay as comfortable as possible. We are however sorry that our efforts were not sufficient in this case and have noted your remarks in regards to our air conditioning. We value your feedback. We do hope to be able to welcome you back for a more enjoyable stay. Kindest regards, Kenneth Claerbout, General Manager

Once again we had a great stay in this Hotel. At times the front of house staff were under pressure due to the volume of people wanting checking in together. Breakfast was very nice and the menu was varied.

Our hotel has responded to the review

« Once again good »

Despite the receptionist saying we had not booked and paid for our breakfasts (I even showed the booking paperwork clearly stating that we had booked it and nothing to pay), our stay way just as enjoyable as the previous times we have stayed there. At times there were not enough staff to cope with the demands of the guests. Perhaps a better choice of meals would be better (not including breakfast).

Our hotel has responded to the review

Dear Kevin, It's always a pleasure to welcome our returning guests at Ibis Aalst Centrum. We are happy that your recent stay was a good experience. We have taken note of your comments regarding the food and will value your suggestion. We are also sorry for the initial confusion regarding the billing. We have passed them to the relevant departments. We are glad the rest of the facilities met your expectations. Once again, thank you for all your kind remarks. We look forward to welcoming you again.

Particularly impressed by the young lady who looked after reception (and everything else) when we arrived in Sunday evening. She even suffered my attempt at speaking Flemish ...

Dear Guest, Many thanks for this so enthusiastic comment about us. That young lady and the whole team join me to address you their greetings for your kind words. It's such testimonials that fuel the continual good humour of our teams. The whole team really look forward to the pleasure of welcoming you both back in the future.
