Lovely hotel on the edge of Mechelen. Shame about the building work opposite which has been going on over a year and looks like it will not be finished anytime soon. Parking is in the nearby multi-storey. Walking distance from town, many places to eat.

I am a frequent visitor. I like the hotel, breakfast and dinner are ok/nice, beds are good. I had a quiet room inside the hotel with a pool view, that was nice. What they really need to fix is the shower; there is almost no strong jet of water in the shower, really annoying. For the rest it is a good place to stay.

Very rigid staff, poor communication skills, flexibility. They haven't heard of "customer service for NON-locals."

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL
It says nothing on the website to warn guests the hotel is currently in the middle of a building site. We were woken every morning by heavy machinery outside our room. No safe walk into town for anyone with mobility issues. Despite warning of a food allergy, the kitchens ignored this, wiping out 24 hours of our stay. The management remained indifferent to these concerns. Terrible customer service.
