A Unique Gem in Ghent
Our stay was delightful! The hotel's historic charm is unmatched, with beautiful repurposed architectural details. Enjoying tea while listening to a talented harpist created an unforgettable ambiance. Make sure to register your car online and seek the hidden entrance by the river for easy access during your visit.

The decor at 1898 The Post truly blew me away, blending neo-Gothic accents with modern touches in every corner. I loved enjoying coffee at the Cobbler bar, watching the vibrant activity at Korenmarkt square. The cocktail selection is unique, and the bartender was exceptionally knowledgeable about jenever. The location is superb, right in the heart of Ghent, making it easy to explore nearby restaurants and sights. However, I faced some challenges with the room layout. The stairs to the bedroom are narrow and tricky, making it tough to move around at times. Breakfast served in the cocktail bar was good but could benefit from a more varied hot food menu. Still, I'd go back for the style and charm of this hotel.

The location is absolutely unbeatable! With so many restaurants and key sights just a stone’s throw away, we felt right in the heart of Ghent. Our room was beautifully decorated and cleverly used the space while offering all the comfort we needed for our family of six, including our four teenagers.
In my wife’s opinion, better breakfast options would enhance family stays.

What an enchanting stay at 1898 The Post! The stylish decor is like a beautiful time machine, blending neo-Gothic accents with bespoke furnishings that make every corner picture-perfect. The cocktail bar, Cobbler, offers delightful drinks served by world-class bartenders, and enjoying coffee at the bar while watching the lively Korenmarkt square was a highlight I won't forget.
Bathroom layout confusion.

Couple suit the luxurious stay
This place has charm like no other. We adored the high ceilings and the unique bathroom design with the mezzanine level. I mean, it felt like a scene from a movie, really! The bar has this very nice double helix staircase, and drinks there were great, too.
It wasn't cheap, but for the experience we got, it was still within reason.

Just a solid selection for a transient stop in Ghent with real value for money. The stylish bar serves great coffee, and it was a nice spot to recharge after exploring the city. Check the bar for light snacks if you get hungry.

Charming atmosphere with a stunning bar, perfect for winding down after a day of exploring. The location is buzzin' right in the city center, and the staff are super friendly and attentive.
However, the breakfast layout could be more convenient, and some areas felt a bit crowded during peak hours.

The service and decor were top-notch, with every corner showcasing attention to detail, making my stay feel fancy. I loved relaxing with a book in the cozy lounge and enjoying the amazing breakfasts each morning. A bit of a hassle with the stairs, but overall, it was a lovely experience worth repeating! 😊

beautiful hotel but slight noise issues
The decor is stunning and very tastefully done! The enormous bed was incredibly comfortable, making for a restful night's sleep. I especially enjoyed the amazing city view from my room, which added a special touch to my stay.
There was some minor noise from outside that could be distracting at times.
