Comfortable facilities, friendly staff. Bathroom was as big as the room itself. Good internet. Staff was kind enough for letting me leave my bicycle at the reception (only space for 1 bicycle) during my stay. The only downside was finding there is easily twice as much space needed for breakfast, as I was told "you can wait or we can find a free seat in a table in use", I was basically told to sit with any other family as there wasn't enough room. This happened as other guests continued to arrive for having breakfast

Booked six nights, stayed one, checked out the next morning. On arrival the room had towels, a mattress with exposed springs, broken lighting, non-functioning heat, a persistent bathroom odor, and visible insects in the bathroom — materially different from the listing. I reported this within 15 minutes of arrival and requested another room; none was available. The property verbally agreed to refund part of the stay but has not processed it. As of this review, I have received no refund. The booking platform has not been able to assist in resolution. I would not stay here again.

An old hotel, although clean and all worked well. A great stay for the money. Across the road from the railway station, and about a 15 minute walk to the old town. A good breakfast, good shower, no safe in the room.

The hotel is in an elegant building immediately opposite the train station in Leuven and a good 10 minute walk down the main avenue to the historic and interesting centre The room was fine - clean and tidy but, in my case had no views with the one bedroom window looking out onto a shaft (popular with pigeons, though they were not a disturbance and I had a good night's sleep!) Breakfast was included in my rate and was an excellent buffet with hot and cold food, pastries and fresh fruit all on offer

The hotel is a typical European hotel, smaller rooms, but kept up nicely. Staff at reception, housekeeping, breakfast and bar/restaurant were excellent, friendly and helpful. Location in Leuven is fantastic. You can walk everywhere from the hotel within 20 minutes. Very convenient to train station and taxi stand if needed. Restaurants and very close. A very nice 10 day visit.
