Quick description

Hotel Gravensteen is in the middle of Ghent town centre, just a few steps from the Castle of the Counts.Hotel Gravensteen dates from 1865, when it was an old mansion. It has now been completely renovated, although the style of the old Second Empire is still present to give the hotel a special historical touch. The impressive hallway, the high ceilings with their magnificent ornaments and the stairs in the reception encourage fantasies about the days of yore.
