Top Ostend Hotel Reviews

Alpha Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms fitted our needs. Close to the main square with plenty of restaurants bars and shops nearby. Short walk to the station for trips to Bruge and Ghent. Close to local tram network."

Leopold Hotel Ostend

8/10 Good

"This 1928 Art Deco hotel is a short walk from the beach, we stayed on the top floor, room 705 which has its own private sauna. Very nice! The only disappointment was not being able to forward book the available parking"

Thermae Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I spent a night at Thermae Palace with my daughters and granddaughter. The ocean view was spectacular, and the room was spacious and well equipped, including chairs we could take to the beach. Lovely waterside walk from the hotel. We did have to keep an eye on our toddler as the open window was very attractive but represented a potential safety hazard :)"

Hotel Mercure Oostende

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, perfect location for everything like town, beach and tram. Rooms are massive and great aircon. Couldn’t have asked for more."

Hotel Burlington

10/10 Excellent

"Never disappoints"

Hotel Ambassadeur

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely big, clean room & bathroom. Did ask for a view of the square but didn’t get that. But that was the only disappointment. Staff were friendly & helpful. Location was perfect. Right on the square so a 10 minute walk from the station and 5 minutes to the beach."

Hotel Royal Astrid

8/10 Good

"The hotel is a bit worn out and could use some interior renovation. The cleanliness was good, and the food was enjoyable. However, the staff did not explain anything to guests upon arrival, which could be improved. Overall, I hope the hotel invests in some interior refurbishment to make the stay more comfortable."

Hotel Du Parc

8/10 Good

"Petite chambre, cependant lit confortable, localisation parfaite pour profiter de la mer et des artères commerciales."

Andromeda Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was exactly like the picture on the website when we reserved. It was the perfect getaway weekend at the beach. The breakfast buffet is incredible and absolutely worth adding it to your room rate. The only thing missing for us was for the staff to be a touch more attentive when you walk by, just to feel noticed since it is a 4 star property. But overall we can highly recommend it and are looking forward to returning."
