NH Gent Belfort

NH Gent Belfort is a chain hotel at Hoogpoort 63 in the heart of Ghent, in the Flanders region of Belgium, next to the Belfry and the city hall. The position places the main historic sights within a few minutes' walk: St Bavo's Cathedral and its Ghent Altarpiece, the Graslei and Korenlei quays, the Gravensteen castle and the shopping streets around Sint-Baafsplein. Ghent-Sint-Pieters railway station is connected by tram, and trains reach Brussels, Bruges and Antwerp in well under an hour. As a member of an international hotel group, NH Gent Belfort offers a modern, consistent standard with contemporary rooms rather than period interiors, although its setting among Ghent's medieval buildings gives it a strong sense of place. Rooms typically include standard doubles, larger superior rooms and family-friendly options, with wifi included. Listed facilities are a restaurant, a bar and a fitness centre, making it practical for business travellers as well as leisure visitors. Breakfast is normally a buffet, and the on-site restaurant offers a convenient evening option, while the old centre has a wide choice of Flemish brasseries and modern restaurants within a short walk. A spa or pool is not listed, so the focus is on location, reliability and comfort. Service is professional and business-oriented, with reception staff able to advise on city passes, canal boat tours and transport. Rates in the mid-range category typically run from about €110 to €230 per night, rising during the Gentse Feesten in July and on weekends. Visitors arriving by car should check parking arrangements in advance because traffic is restricted in the historic centre.
