The property was ideally situated for the Old Town and was very close to an excellent underground car park. The property was spotlessly clean and we were provided with an excellent breakfast.

Lack of staff except at breakfast.

It was a convenient location. The room was modern and clean. The breakfast was fresh and plentiful.

Overall, I had a fantastic stay at this hotel and would highly recommend it. ​The room was lovely, and the location is perfect—it's situated conveniently between the city center and the train station, making it super easy to get around. The breakfast was also excellent, with a great variety of options, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. ​The only minor issue I had was with the shower. It was difficult to regulate the temperature, so the water was either just warm or very hot. ​Despite this small problem, my experience was overwhelmingly positive. I would definitely stay here again!

The door / wall to the bathroom area is just thick glass so you can see & hear through it from the bedroom - it wasn't an issue for us, but it's just something to be aware of if you're wanting that kind of privacy from whoever you're sharing the room with.

The woman working there who we saw at breakfast was excellent, really friendly and wanted to ensure we had everything we needed. Also an excellent location - in walking distance from the train station and city centre where the main tourist attractions are. Comfy bed, nice quiet room with flowers and a little balcony. Highly recommend this to anyone choosing to stay in this area.

I was very lucky to have Joanne and Remy help me with my very heavy suitcases up the stairs. It was a long climb up to my room and down when I had to leave. If I had to say thing I didn't like it was that, but not because I don't like stairs, it is more because I had extra heavy baggage for a solo traveller.

First and foremost, I was received by the most welcoming and accomodating staff, Joanna and Remy (not sure if I spelled those correctly). I found them very helpful and so willing to make sure any requests or inquiries were take care of. I absolutely loved the space, the ambience, the comfort, the cleanliness, the calm and peace, the ease of access to and from property. The breakfast was stellar, everything was fresh and the variety and selection superb. I loved the shampoo, conditioner and shower gel, so much so I went on a hunt through Ghent to find a retail store which sold the brand and scent.

B&B Achilles was perfectly located, pristine, and comfortable. The two staff that we met, one gentleman on arrival and a young lady at breakfast could not have been more obliging.

Stayed in June 2025

We were concerned about the name Achilles B&B, we should not have been. We arrived after the reception had closed but clear and precise instructions had been left for us. We were also concerned about parking as they did not have private parking, we should not have been, there was a large underground car park in the square that was less that 100 yards from the property (park there and do not use the on street meters!). It was clean, modern, well located for the city, a good size bedroom, comfy bed and a great shower! Break fast was also very good.

The location is some 15- 20 min walk to Ghent old city, we didn't mind it, but just to note that it is not in the most touristy area. Some good bars right close to it catering mainly to the student crowd.

Very nice b&b with comfy room and a tastefully decorated interior. Has all you need. Good breakfast and friendly staff.

Difficult to access as we hadnt seen the email message re door code. Very steep narrow steps to 2nd floor room. Quite a long ( unexpected ) walk to centre of Gent

Very clean and well presented B&B. Staff very friendly and good choice at breakfast

Very good accommodation. We walked from the train station, quite an easy walk if you don't have much luggage. Check-in with code was seamless. Nice room, very comfortable. Excellent breakfast. Overall a good accommodation.

You need to be half mountain goat to climb up to the Romance room but it just so happens that we are just that. Check what floor your room is before reserving. Wife bumped head on low ceiling corner - be careful.

Superb breakfast. Very professional and friendly staff. Walkable to city center.

Stay more days so you can enjoy the stay wholly.

Everything is top class. Whole apartment is nicely renovated with matching colour tones. Very good breakfast serving freshly made pancakes and eggs upon orders.

Some steep stairs which some people may find challenging, but to be expected in a building of this age.

Character property in ideal location to explore the city. Local parking. Staff are very helpful. Good range of continental style breakfast.

We would have preferred coffee and tea in our room as we like to have drinks early and late when we are in our nightclothes. There was poor replacement of toilet paper and toiletries. For us the stairs up to our room were rather difficult as they were so narrow and steep.

Superb breakfast, great staff especially when I had a mishap and tipped orange juice over myself, the floor and broke some glasses. My clothes were washed and ironed and payment was refused. Location was excellent once we discovered the buses 5a and 5b straight to the centre. Excellent room with good bathroom.
