Overall Ratings & Reviews Erasmus Hotel

We only stayed for one night whilst the Christmas market was on. Hotel is very convenient to the centre and trams are a short walk away. The gentleman on reception was lovely and very helpful. Lots of interesting traditional furniture and artefacts in the hotel. Room was large with a modern bathroom.

The staff were very nice and helpful. The room was clean and spacious with amenities that were very helpful. Breakfast was also excellent

It is an historic hotel with many antiquities in the décoration. The location is perfect near the canal. It is quiet but there is no escalator and the room was on the 5th floor. The beakfast was included and we liked the food. But ithe price for a night is a bit expensive. The owner was a gentleman .

Lovely, comfortable room in a quiet street convenient to site seeing, restaurants and shopping

This hotel had great ratings but my room had ratty threadbare towels, the walls were dirty, and there were things still under the bed from previous guests. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was great.

Lovely stay in an amazing property. Big double room with a view over the garden, great breakfast and good location for walking around Ghent. The property is very old and packed with antiques and artefacts. It is clean and the room was made up each day but it’s individual and lived in which we appreciated. Would recommend.

400-year-old charming hotel with wonderful service!

Great location and atmosphere. Excellent service and breakfast in a medieval room.

OK if you want rustic / basic - plenty of both. The bones of the building are great, the breakfast is OK and the proprietor is very pleasant BUT: Very limited reception, no lift, no air conditioning, no shower, plenty of street noise all night. Think student digs in an atmospheric building. Not for everyone.

Lovely hotel in a very historic building. The hotel owner is so kind and friendly, making me feel very welcome. The room was comfortable and quiet, and the hotel is in a very good location as you can easily walk to a lot of places. Breakfast was excellent, and I would definitely stay here again.

This hotel has a lot of character. I hear when people say it could benefit from some modernization, but not at the expense of making it another cookie-cut hotel. It os definitely a wonderful choice for travelers looking for experiences, rather than for tourist looking for the standard Marriott. In addition, Peter, the hotellier is quite a character, efficient, professional and nice personality. I would stay here again if I come back to Ghent.

Nice owner and staff. Very helpful.

The manager Akrim is a good person

I was going to give 1 star review for the property but the breakfast was actually good, so 2 stars overall. Everything is very old in the hotel. We got a room on the 3rd floor. No elevator, nobody to help with the luggage. Beds squeak whenever you move. No air-conditioning. If you open the window, too much noise from outside. Garbage truck comes at 6:30 and for 15 min there is banging.

Friendly and helpful staff, great location, comfortable room, silent to sleep although central, great beds and clean bathroom. Would stay again!

I love this very old charming, family run, hotel ...

Quirky and good value for money

Very close to everything. Convenience store right next door

The hotel is in a very good location, close to many of the main attractions, shopping and dining areas. The hotel itself is an old building which has been decorated in keeping with its age. The staff are friendly and welcoming. The room was large, clean and had all the facilities I needed. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.

Character of an aged property.
