The room was exceptional… location was perfect. The kitchen was more than adequately stocked with dishwater and utensils. I will definitely use this property in the future.

Adagio Access Gent Centrum Dampoort
Friendly staff and clean room. Breakfast in the restaurant was good. About a 15-minute walk from the train station and about a 15-minute walk to the old town. There were a grocery store and restaurants near the train station, and fancier restaurants in the old town. Limited evening food at the hotel ...
