Decent Donny

The hotel is in a good location. A short walk to the promenade. The staff was nice. The room itself is decent but the bathroom is a bit outdated for a four star hotel the breakfast didn’t have a lot of hot foods (only eggs and bacon).

Just wish I’d stayed longer

This hotel went beyond our expectations. Fantastic. It ticked all the right boxes, quiet location for sleeping, a four to five minute walk to the beautiful sandy beach, 10-15 minutes walk to the town centre. Comfy beds, lovely breakfast, spotlessly clean and lovely staff. Can’t ask for more

As advertised

The hotel was very clean. The staff were extremely courteous and helpful. The lobby and lounge areas were inviting with the fire places burning. The room was spacious and comfortable with all amenities needed. The breakfast buffet was always fresh and plentiful. The restaurant served delicious food from either the menu or a prepared selection for the day. The walk to the beach, shops or other restaurants is short. Onsite parking was a bonus. It should be noted that the lobby is not open 24 hours so plan your arrival accordingly. Once checked in, there is a code to get into the hotel through a side door. If I were to return to De Panne, I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Well run, comfortable and clean up-market hotel within a 5 minute walk of De Planne's excellent beach and beach-front bars and restaurants. Ideal for reasonably well-healed business travelers and families alike. Not cheap but worth it if you can afford it! Has 2 Tesla destination chargers and a separate double Type 2 charging point right outside the front entrance. Both are free to use but I would advise booking.
