Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers bright, attractive rooms that are very quiet, spacious, and modern. While there are a couple of design flaws, the overall stay is pleasant. The service is incredibly kind and helpful, making guests feel welcomed. The location is ideal, near the center of cultural attractions yet on a small quiet street, just a short walk from the main square. The dining experience is fantastic with great food selections. Overall, a highly recommended hotel for its wonderful rooms, friendly service, and excellent location.
The hotel rooms are small but beautiful, offering a lovely view of the courtyard even in bad weather. The accommodations are clean, with comfortable beds and a generally quiet ambiance for a city hotel.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were inviting, clean, and had a lovely little terrace at the back. The service was top-notch with super professional and friendly staff. The location was perfect, close to attractions yet tucked away on a quiet street. The dining experience was enjoyable, offering a variety of options. Overall, a great value for a comfortable stay in the heart of Anversa.
My stay at the hotel was wonderful! The rooms were spacious and stylish, perfect for a standard room. The service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff making my stay even more enjoyable. The location was superb, just a stone's throw away from the cathedral and a charming rustic café. While the dining options were not as luxurious as expected, the overall experience was still delightful.
My stay at Hotel Rubens was a mixed experience. The rooms were not noisy and modern, but my room felt tiny, dark, and not very welcoming. However, the lovely heating made up for it, even though I couldn't find the perfect setting. The service was a bit of a rollercoaster, with a vacuum hose forgotten in the hallway, but the friendly and helpful staff, especially for solo travelers, saved the day. The unbeatable location, nestled in a quieter side street in the city center near great restaurants and with views of the cathedral, was a major plus. Dining was a hit and cold, even though tempting options were just across the lane. Overall, a stay with highs and lows.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely wonderful. The rooms were not only excellent but also perfect – spacious, modern, and impeccably clean. Being near the kitchen meant waking up to delightful aromas that lured me to breakfast even earlier than planned. The overall experience was fantastic, with just a few minor drawbacks.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a perfect size, but needed an uplift and had a lingering old building smell that made it hard for me to sleep well. However, the deluxe room was slightly more spacious than the regular rooms. The service was extremely helpful and friendly. The hotel's location was great for exploring Antwerp easily on foot, being close to key attractions. The dining experience was excellent with the option to make your own Belgian waffles. Overall, the facilities were good.
The hotel was basic but clean and comfortable, and I really enjoyed the breakfast. However, the rooms were not soundproof and had a slight old building smell which affected my sleep. The lobby was a nice place to sit though.
