Terrible experience

My stay at raphael suites has been extremely disappointing. For the past times that I have been there, the place is only going from worse to worse. You can tell they don't care about the details anymore. The suites have many broken elements, and new bad surprises each day and this would be ok if they would fix things but they don't. It really feels like they don't care at all anymore and it made the experience so uncomfortable. There was no heating at first (while freezing outside), then there was no light in the bathroom, then there were other people having access to the code and then for 3 days there's a light that didnt turn off which meant that I couldn't sleep. I can't believe a place like this can still have so many issues and such a bad service. Extremely dissapointing.

Beautiful apartment but bathroom needs attention

The apartment is beautifully decorated, comfortable beds and spacious with wine glasses and a kitchenette. But, there was a leak coming from the upstairs apartment. Not just a bit of a leak but a flood that filled a pan. As we were only there one night we had enough towels to mop it all up. This has been mentioned in previous reviews so needs to be looked at immediately. Also the bathroom door was completely missing on one side. My son refused to shower with the family able to see him! Shame because the bathroom is really beautiful and the shower was good. The room was hot and the air con didn’t seem to work. A lot of lights are out especially the main one. It was a very good price for a lovely room but people shouldn’t be staying there till these issues are fixed. However, we found it all very funny and had a good stay because we were on holiday.

The property looks nice in photos but did not function well. Every other item was broken or not functional in the apartment. We had to use a flashlight to illuminate the toilet area because the light was burnt out. There was no wifi signal on the third floor. When I contacted Smartflats they filed a ticket and because they are a long-distance property manager did not do anything about it. I will not be staying with Smartflats again.

Excellent place to stay

Very nice property, very clean and organized. It is in a very good location, close to commercial and historical sites. A lot of things to do and places to eat nearby. We had a little confusion with the entry code, but could sort it out with the help of the property management and they immediately took care of it.

The apartment was beautiful and spacious. Borh beds were comfortable. The batheoom was amazing with the tub and shower working beautifully. AC and heat were localized and very good. The communication with the service was poor when we had problems, and the technician sent out to fix the problems did not fully fix one of them. The wifi was down the whole time, and we only found the router while checking out. There were lights that wouldnt turn on in all of the rooms. All in all, great property, but it needs some better upkeep and service.

Terrible communication

It is a lovely property in a good location but our experience staying there was extremely disappointing. Issues with luggage storage, poor communication, broken air conditioning and WiFi that didn't work with no solutions from the staff despite multiple conversations with them. Bed was also hard and the pillows not very supportive, leaving us in pain in the morning.

So beautiful! The flat we had was made for a couple, not for two friends who shared the space as the shower was outside with no privacy. But besides that, the flat was gorgeous, in a great area, walkable to concert venue, center of tourist attractions, dining and shopping. Just be aware, no elevator! And if you don't pay ahead, make sure to check your email so you are not dealing with calling service area and having them figure the reservation out like I did. I had to spend 2 hours in the cold dealing with it all. I wish I had checked my email ahead but I was on full vacation mode.

Being Rubin's neighbour

Great modern, self-service suite with good wifi. It was comfortable, spacious by European standards and in a really wonderful location (check out the markets on Saturday and Sunday). The cleaners did a wonderful job every day, including weekends. The laundromat nearby which is primarily a cafe was terrific. We were on the second floor and it didn't bother us, but the stairs would be a challenge to elderly, unfit or disabled (we were warned there was no lift before we booked). The only other minor criticism was that the kitchen facilities could be better - a very small kettle, no toaster and minimal cooking and eating equipment.

Good hotel, no elevator

Stayed 2 nights in April 2018. Condition of hotel is excellent and feels modern. The small kitchen is equipped with an induction cook top, a small fridge, microwave oven, electric water kettle, and cups and dishes and utensils for two people. However only a counter in the bedroom serves as table and counter. The walk up to the third floor rooms can be challenging if you are not in top physical shape. Hotel is couple of blocks from Meir shopping street and walking distance from Antwerp centraal station if you are not traveling with heavy luggage. Antwerp's beautiful Grote Markt is about 15 minutes of walking along some nice streets. A wonderful Carre4 supermarket is on the way to the Grote Markt where you can pick up all kinds of things for your meals if you are so inclined. We recommend this hotel highly for the right traveler.

Very nice suite, great location

Stayed at Raphael Suites for two nights. Great location, right in the center of Antwerp. Apartment is nice, well organized and well maintained. The only downsides are the steep climb (we were on the 2nd floor) and the somewhat basic kitchenette (we didn't need more).

Great location to benefit from all Antwerp offers

light and airy ''suite'' with ample sitting/working/kitchen area, small but perfectly adequate bathroom with nice large shower with different jets so you don't have to get your hair wet, and fantastic location -- practically opposite the Rubens House. Only problems are small one -- no shelf in bathroom to unpack your makeup or toiletries, and very very steep stairs up to the suite. it is unmanned -- you get a code for entrance, but as there is a nice café across the street, full kitchen facilities, and the place is immaculately cleaned, that's fine. just don't bring huge bags, you won't get them up the steep narrow stairs! and don't wear high heels!;-) Very modern, stylish, best bed linen and bed 'we've come across ina ges!

Combination of Perfect Location & Friendly Stuff

Perfect is great about the facility. Especially, location and quality of the suite. There is no reception, however they can solve and help for every issue while fast communicating. The one and only cons can be there is no elevator, if you bring heavy and big luggage, It can be little bit tiring to carry it on top floors. As a Expedia Gold Member, I strongly recommend to select this suite to have nice holiday at Antwerp.

Hip and Well-Equiped in the Historic Center

I really loved Raphael Suites. Efficient and no-nonsense check-in (not a traditional hotel, but an inn) above a soon-to-open bar. Brand new with all the amenities...cool, walk-in glass shower and beautifully equipped kitchen. All in the heart of the city, a stone's throw from the Rubenshuis.
