I had a pleasant stay at the Ghent Marriott Hotel, with an excellent location right by the canal, making it easy to explore the historic city. The room was spacious and comfortable, though the bathroom design, including a high-side glass wall in the bathtub, was a minor inconvenience. The staff were friendly and attentive, providing helpful service throughout my visit, although I did notice that some areas were undergoing renovations that caused a bit of disruption.

The Ghent Marriott Hotel boasts an excellent location right on the canal. it's perfect for exploring the city's sights. However, my check-in experience was frustrating, as they had no record of my early arrival despite my company's assurance. Though the hotel itself is clean and comfortable, the service definitely left something to be desired.

I had a fantastic stay at the Ghent Marriott Hotel! The location right on the canal made exploring the city an absolute breeze, with plenty of cafes and historical sites just steps away. The room was spacious and clean, and the breakfast options were varied and delicious, although a bit pricey if you're a light eater. I did have a small hiccup with a missed wake-up call, but the overall experience was wonderful, and I would definitely recommend this hotel for its prime spot!
