Getaway Leuven

8/10 Good
"Apparthotel in the center of Leuven, seemingly in a building converted from offices. Stay was good, quiet (despite some reviews saying the contrary), and above all excellent location. The receptionist was extremely nice and helpful (but note: there is no 24/7 reception, only afternoon/evening). Rooms could use a bit of a refresh, they felt slightly tired and soulless, and the lighting was quite dim without being stylish. The art may be a question of taste. These were cosmetic rather than fundamental issues. Overall it was perfect for my purpose, better for a university conference than romantic getaway."

10/10 Excellent
"The staff were exceedingly welcome and helpful. I arrived early and they were able to clean my room and let me in early to make up for lost sleep from my trans-atlantic flight. I was in the "old" rooms in the carriage house and my room did not have AC -- but I was able to open windows and let the breeze cool the room, which was even more delightful. The "newer" rooms do have AC. The breakfast was in the attached restaurant and was a typical "European" spread; it was very good and more than enough. I ate at the restaurant often and had a lovely experience."

"This hotel was so lovely, in such a quiet and beautiful area. Our room was so clean and comfortable and we particularly loved the honesty bar, sitting out in the garden and watching the swifts fly in the evening. It was very tranquil. We had breakfast one morning and it was very comprehensive although a little expensive. We had a great breakfast in the centre of Leuven another day too. A brilliant trip, would definitely recommend."
