Breakfast was superb and one of the best selection of food items I’ve seen. I especially liked the eggs cooked as requested and the freshly squeezed apple juice.
They provide complementary excellent quality drinking water. The breakfast was also excellent both in quality and in variety. Will definitely stay here next time we are in Ghent.
Great staff very friendly and helpful at reception. Nice room quite large. Bathroom a little small but ok. Great location near station and lots of restaurants in area with a 25 mins walk into the old town or short tram ride.
We had a great stay at this hotel. The staff members were very helpful. The breakfast was very good. The location — near the train station and walkable to the central district — was excellent. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful stay at the Hotel Carlton. Hotel is steps from the train station which was very convenient. Staff was incredibly friendly, and breakfast was great! We highly recommend this hotel.
Well situated very close to the train station and close to various restaurants. In a side road so also quiet, which was a bonus. Room was very spacious, clean and staff extremely friendly and helpful. It is just quite a long walk to the old town for any sightseeing.

Carlton was great, so handy to the train station, 20 minute stroll into the old town, staff were so helpful giving some site seeing tips. Certainly value for money and have no issues recommending a stay
The staff was very welcoming and friendly. They even let us check in early since a room was available. The hotel room was very clean and felt very safe! We would stay again next time!
Nice and convenient if you are traveling on train, the station is a couple of minutes away as well as tram stops, but at a walking distance to downtown Ghant.
We had a great stay! The room was surprisingly large and very clean. The staff was wonderful, especially Virginie, and the breakfast was delicious! Thanks for a wonderful stay!
Excellent location and comfortable rooms for a short stay in Ghent. The nearby station allows you to go to all nearby cities and get back during the day.
Our group of friends enjoyed our stay at the hotel. Rooms are huge. Nice amenities. Very close to train station. A nice coffee shop and 2 pastries shops nearby
Great location in a very walkable city. Service was excelling. The hotel had an old school vibe, but the rooms were spacious, clean, and overlooking a beautiful, leafy neighborhood.
