Lovely hotel, shame about the parking

Customer review rating 4.0/5

Nz Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Hotel was very nice, convenient for town, staff very helpful. But when you book, it advertises that there is a car park - which is true, but what they don’t mention is that it’s tiny and you have to book it far in advance to get a space. The nearest convenient car park is a 5 minute walk away - that should be made clear on the website.

Dear Guest, We would like to thank you for this review about your recent experience in our hotel. We are delighted that you found our hotel to your liking and appreciated its convenience for exploring the town, as well as the helpfulness of our staff. The hotel's prime location in the city centre of Gent, just a short stroll from St Bavo’s Cathedral, makes it an ideal choice for guests wanting to immerse themselves in the local culture. Nonetheless, we recognize the importance of clear communication regarding our parking facilities. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by our limited parking availability and the necessity to reserve this in advance. We strive to provide accurate and detailed information on our website and will review the parking details to ensure our guests are fully informed before their arrival. Finally, we are pleased that you experienced the high standards of service that we aim to deliver at Novotel Gent Centrum. Your recognition of our dedicated team's efforts is greatly valued and serves as a motivation to continue offering memorable stays for all our guests. We hope to welcome you and your family back to our hotel in the near future. Kind regards, Veronique Van Hulle, General Manager

We have been coming to Novotel Gent twice a year for more than 15 years now when visiting family. The staff are always so friendly and polite, especially Wael and Jannes

Dear Nathalie, Thank you very much for your kind review. It is always rewarding to hear when our guests have had a memorable stay with us. We are delighted that you enjoyed the attentiveness and friendliness of our staff, and it's particularly pleasing to hear your kind words about Wael and Jannes. Our team strives to provide a warm and welcoming experience for all our guests, and it's encouraging to know that this has been reflected during your visits. As you have been visiting us for over 15 years, we hope that Novotel Gent Centrum continues to be your home away from home when you are in Ghent, offering a comfortable place to rest and a team that is always ready to assist you. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back. Best wishes, Veronique Van Hulle, General Manager

The worst Novotel ever stayed in

Penny M. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

The building needs refurbishing! The car park was a trap for damaging cars. The towels worn and one had black stains. The room smelled awful. The staff could not explain in English directions to the hotel

Dear M., Thank you for your feedback, We are sorry to hear that your recent stay at Novotel Gent Centrum did not live up to the high standards we strive to uphold. We understand that the condition of the building and parking facilities did not meet your expectations. Our ongoing efforts to maintain and update our hotel are crucial, and your feedback is invaluable in this process. We regret to hear about the towels and room odor you encountered; please accept our sincere apologies. These instances fall short of our cleanliness and presentation standards, and we will address these concerns with our housekeeping team immediately. Effective communication is a cornerstone of our guest service, and we are disappointed to learn that our staff did not provide clear directions in English. This feedback is a critical reminder for us to ensure that our team is well-equipped to offer assistance in various languages. Regarding the cot that was not present upon your arrival, we are sincerely sorry for this oversight. This is certainly not indicative of the careful preparation we aim to provide for our guests, especially when special requests are made in advance. We hope to welcome you again in the future. Best wishes, Veronique Van Hulle, General Manager

The breakfast was not that great and the rooms not clean enough. The mattress not comfortable and old.

We apologize for the aspects of your stay that did not meet your expectations. Our hotel aims to provide a tranquil retreat amidst the vibrant city life, and we regret that you experienced disturbances.

Gemma M TripAdvisor review

Perfect location to visit Gand. Lots of istory and many good restaurants walking distance. Reception staff is friendly and helpful. The rooms are large and confortable with a mnce sized bathroom. The hotel has also a small swimming pool and a lot of amenities for children. Value for price
