A delightful hotel with a fascinating history, all set in an authentic Art Deco setting. Combined with the warm welcome and the exceptionally friendly and helpful staff, this hotel undoubtedly deserves an extra star in the sky. Tip: An ideal stay for those who want to avoid the stress of the morning rush hour and have an early appointment at UZ Ghent. Whoever you are and wherever you need/want to be in Ghent... highly recommended! Just returned from another stay at this hotel. The hotel remains highly recommended and is also a perfect location for anyone who needs to be at UZ Ghent early. Value for money: 10 out of 10! Stayed at Hotel Orion again. Once again, everything was in perfect order. Update regarding the pool: it has become a wellness area that you can use partly privately and partly semi-privately. Consult the website for photos and info, or call the hotel for a reservation. Recently stayed here again. And so we have already slept in various room types. From spacious to very spacious. Because the rooms here are truly spacious. Some rooms are also suitable for multiple people, which is very comfortable. The welcome remains just as relaxed, warm, friendly, and familiar. Combined with the beautiful Art Deco atmosphere, this hotel remains a very special place and is highly recommended. Just returned from yet another stay at this hotel (1/07/26) combined with a hospital stay. Top notch again! Super friendly people, warm, homey atmosphere. We were given a different room type every time we were here and were always just as satisfied! We didn't use the wellness facilities due to surgery, but I recommend everyone do so! I greatly appreciate the Art Deco style of the building, as well as the beautiful classical music that adds even more sparkle to this atmosphere upon arrival and during breakfast! Top!!!!

Great little place. Comfy beds, bright and big room. Feels quite royal. The pool could do with a cleaning, but all else is excellent.

A very nice hotel, excellent welcome, indoor pool, quiet location, and close to the city center by tram or even on foot. And charging my electric car took very little time and only 18 kWh!

We were very pleasantly surprised; the hotel is beautiful. Anna, who greeted us at reception, was very friendly, kind, and helpful; she assisted us with everything. The room was spectacular—very spacious, clean, and comfortable. The beds were magnificent; we loved them. The neighborhood where it's located is very quiet and peaceful, perfect for a good night's sleep. The location is a bit far from the city center, but it's easily accessible by local taxis. I highly recommend this hotel.
