ibis budget Charleroi Airport

Basic no frills hotel room. No air condition and it was summer.made it challenging for sleeping. Breakfast was basic with very little choice. Great staff and proximity to the airport was the best quality.

We arrived quite late, to catch a flight next morning. Check-in was good. So far, so good. When we arrived in the hotelroom there was still some drops of blood on a small table. The next morning it was noticeable the clerk behind the counter was pretty sick. I think he had the flu. Taxi was late. We bought tickets for the taxi on the way back also. We arrived three days later, back at Charleroi airport. This is where the 'whole new experience' started'. We called taxicompany 'Confort', to let them know we were there. They said 10 minutes. We wait, and waited, and waited. After 30 minutes the taxi came. First thing the taxi driver did was ask for the ticket. He inspected the ticket and told us it was no good, because we were with three people, and it didn't state three on the ticket. This was whilst we payed for it in advance. The taxidriver started arguing. 'Customer is king', not for this company. After 5 minutes arguing (and we already lost precious time) the taxi driver told us to go sit in the taxi and we had to sort it out at the hotel with him. We didn't even leave the parkingarea or the phone rang. It was some guy named Johan. Johan kinda told him that he was late picking us up. Next thing the taxi driver did was scream at his phone and started being really loudly emotional. He hang up the phone in rage, and started mocking. Two street later, in the middle of the highway, he slowed down to 15 km/h, and started calling with his phone on his ear. This while he was not driving straight. He called a guy named Mohamed and started shouting again. This was after he told us that we probably needed to pay an addiotional €10 euro for his 'services'. When we arrived at the hotel, and we finally felt safe again, we refuged to pay and left with our own car. Never ever will I book at Ibis again

That was an excellent stay. Just what we need. Clean, nice, good breakfast, a night sleep and a shower. We stayed one night after the arrival flight and one night before the return flight. On the first night we walked to the hotel using google maps. It was about a 15 minutes walk on the sidewalk. The airport taxis told us to call the hotel to order a taxi. I guess they were not happy to make a 10 euro drive. but the walk was fine. The morning after we ordered a 7 passenger taxi using the hotel reception - 10 euro cost. The guy on the reception desk was very nice and assisted in everything we needed.

I cannot express how uncomfortable this "hotel" is. The beds are rock hard. The one pillow we were given was so used only half of it was use able. We asked for another pillow but we couldn't get one. There is a huge floodlight outside of the window. The only thing worse than a floodlight outside the window is a floodlight that is flickering like a strobe. It's lucky no one had epilepsy. I went with zero expectations of this place and it truly delivered. Dreadful. Save your money and sleep on CRL Airport floor

Close to airport , I walked around 10 to 15 minutes from hotel to main terminal . Friendly fast service at reception . Average to small rooms but good enough for a short stay , I only stayed one night . Room with a double bed shower , toilet and tv with plenty of local as International channels . Many food and drink buying options In the lobby and small but nice breakfast as I could see I did not use this option . I will surely use this hotel again .
