Frommer's Review
You enter this lovely mansion, built in 1865 as the home of a Ghent textile baron, through the old carriageway (made up of ornamented pillars and an impressive wall niche occupied by a marble statue), which sets the tone for what you find inside. The elegant, high-ceilinged parlor is a sophisticated blend of pastels, gracious modern furnishings, and antiques, with a small bar tucked into one corner. The rooms are attractive and comfortably furnished. Those in front look out on the moated castle, while those to the back have city views. There's a top-floor lookout, with windows offering magnificent views of the city. Afternoon tea is available. There's no dining room, but plenty of good restaurants are within easy walking distance.
Facilities:
Lounge, fitness, sauna (€10/room), wireless internet (payable)
