The hotel is centrally located in the old Mechelen city center, making it perfect for exploring the area. The rooms have an open plan bathroom and toilet within the bedroom, which wasn't our preference, especially for families or those seeking more privacy. The dining options are great but starting breakfast at 7:00 might be late for some travelers. The hotel provides excellent service, with staff going above and beyond, and the intimate location at the back of the hotel adds charm.

My stay at the hotel was comfortable and enjoyable. The rooms were clean and spacious, with a fantastic walk-in shower, though the bathroom/toilet without a door was a bit unconventional. The service was excellent, with a very helpful and friendly staff. The location was ideal for exploring the area but was a bit affected by the heatwave during my stay. The dining experience was great with a good selection of fresh food. Overall, a great value for money.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was comfortable with great bathroom amenities and a fantastic shower, but the lack of a door on the toilet made it less private, suitable mostly for solo guests.

The hotel is located in a fantastic spot, right by the river, offering a perfect setting for evening strolls. The rooms are standard with a comfortable bed and necessary amenities but can get noisy at night. The service is friendly and goes the extra mile for guests, even if there are occasional hiccups in orders. The location is excellent, in the heart of Mechelen, with easy access to nearby attractions. The dining experience is satisfying but could use some improvements in variety. The facilities are adequate but not exceptional.
