Ghent Marriott Hotel

My stay at the Ghent Marriott Hotel was truly exceptional. This beautifully located hotel combines comfort, style, and good service — all right in the centre of Ghent’s historic district. You’re just steps away from the canals, charming streets, and all the major sights, yet the hotel itself offers a calm, upscale atmosphere that's perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. One of the highlights for me was the gym — clean, well-equipped, and open 24/7, which was ideal for keeping up with my fitness routine during my trip. It had everything I needed for a proper workout, which isn’t always the case with hotel gyms in Belgium. The breakfast was another standout feature. The selection was excellent: a generous buffet with freshly baked pastries, quality cold cuts and cheeses, fruit, and really good coffee. The breakfast space was bright and welcoming, and service was attentive without being intrusive. My room was elegant and comfortable, with thoughtful details, a plush bed, and large windows offering beautiful views of the canal. The hotel also has a stylish bar and lounge area with a cosy atmosphere — perfect for a drink in the evening. All in all, the Ghent Marriott Hotel offers everything you could ask for in a city stay: fantastic location, modern facilities, a great gym, and top-notch breakfast. I wouldn’t hesitate to return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Ghent for business or leisure.

Excellent location, nice room, and great service in this hotel. Came during the festival and they accommodated our request for a quiet room. We couldn’t hear the main stage at all. Also, this hotel has uniquely great air conditioning for a European hotel.

This may have been the best Marriott I’ve stayed at! The rooms are exceptional and feel luxurious. The staff are all incredibly kind and go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and help with any issues. The breakfast buffet is worth it!! Seriously there are so many food options and they all taste amazing. I accidentally didn’t make our booking long enough, so they scrambled to help us find a room for the last night we were in town—even though they were also hosting a conference during that time! The manager of the front desk (Juncal) was incredibly kind and made me feel better when I realized the mistake I had made. She assured me there would be a room with that hotel or another close by and she made magic happen to follow through on the promise. Just a seriously great person. She deserves a raise! Also be sure to sit at the bar and chat with the bartenders. In particular, Lucia was so enjoyable to talk with. Great representation of the Marriott brand all the way around.
