Hotels Near belz van spangenstraat in Antwerp

I thought hard about giving this hotel a 3, but on balance think it is fair. In many respects it could score 4 but crucially the sound proofing and specifically the flooring to the bedrooms is inadequate. We were kept awake an hour the first night until the night receptionist kindly called the room above after midnight to ask them to remove their footwear / stop pacing. The second night closing doors above woke us briefly but then the third night there were comings and goings on our floor between several rooms around 3am for 45 mins and we heard it all. Hopefully the hotel will consider doing further works to mitigate this for future guests. Otherwise we found the hotel / bed comfortable, the mostly continental breakfast was fine (fresh juices, fruit, cereals, breads, meat / cheese & pastries) and the bar food did the job on the last night. Its a 25 min walk into the interesting / lively old town where we spent most of our trip, but reception will call you a taxi that costs around 15 Euros if that is too far or it is raining. MAS is worth a visit including the view from the top.

Great location so close to the train station and between 2 subways stations! Service ok, cleanliness ok but could be improved (I can tell that it was clean but not deep on the table, and the soap/shampoo dispenser was kind of broken so it spread all around bathtub)

If you want staff to do absolutely nothing about someone breaking into your room then this is the hotel for you. I was staying here with my friend in a room on the second floor. Someone tried to break into our room by kicking our door three times. We couldn't reach reception by phone call, I tried texting reception. They messaged us on Whatsapp to not worry and that we are safe even though a person kept trying to break in. They didn't try coming down to our room to check if we were okay. Didn't care about our safety. We then had to call the police and they were taking a long time to get there so we called again only to be told by the 112 operator that the staff weren't letting the police into the hotel. Finally they were let in after our door was being kicked at for an hour. The police were useless since they didn't even check if the area was safe before telling us to just sleep and enjoy our holiday. We wanted to see CCTV footage because there was a camera in our corridor. We went to reception, and a member of staff told us that he had the cctv ready for us because he guessed that we would want to see it. He showed us the recording of the corridor and told us ”see there's no one in front of your door”. But my friend and I noticed that the time stamp was covered by a black rectangle but you can see a bit of the number underneath it. The bottom of the digits could still be seen and clearly read 2 am and not 1 am which is when the incident occurred. When we told him that this is live footage and that we want to see the recording of the 1 am incident, he kept telling us ”no there's no one in front of the door” until he finally admitted to us that this was live footage and that he needs the manager to access the 1 am footage. This seemed sketchy. Why the need to lie about it? We stayed at reception as we were too scared to go back to our room. At around 3 am we decided to try going back. After being in the room for just 10 minutes, someone tried to break down our door again. This time the 112 operator hung up on us and we didn't try calling reception since they proved to be useless. At 3:50am I called a girl from our University course who was on the same floor. She luckily found no one at the door and so we ran down to reception. We stayed at reception all night and didn't sleep. Staff were no help apart from that same staff member offering us ”very stiff alcoholic drinks to help us relax”, that's how he put it, we of course refused but he kept coming back and offering us drinks despite us saying no repeatedly. At around 8 am I saw our lecturer from our course at reception so we went with him to see the cctv footage. At first the manager said that she can't show it to us. When our lecturer said that we'll go to the police then she changed her answer. Before even showing the footage she said ”I looked through the footage earlier and saw that it was a door nearby making the noise because it kept being opened and closed”. We insisted to see the CCTV s

El hotel esta muy céntrico todo queda prácticamente andando, a 4 minutos de la central de trenes de Amberes, justo fuera del hotel esta la estación del autobus Flixbus que lleva y trae del aeropuerto, el centro de la ciudad está a tiro de piedra, justo en la esquina esta una tienda Jumbo con precios accesibles, las habitaciones son pequeñas, cuentan con cafetera e insumos para preparar café, secador de cabello, plancha y tabla de planchar, nos alojamos en la habitación 103 con vista a la opera, el desayuno es muy bueno consta de huevo con tocino, fruta fresca, yogurth, café, té, pan recién horneado, insumos para preparar sandwiches, frutos secos y cereales, ademas se cuenta con opción a preparar waffles, el único inconveniente que durante 6 días solo nos colocaron 1 botella de 500 ml de agua en la habitación y que en el comedor muchas cosas se encuentran colocadas bastante altas y resulta algo incomodo para personas de estatura baja, como sugerencia sería bueno que cuenten con personal que hable español ya que cada vez más las personas que hablamos este idioma visitamos Europa y sería un alago que nuestro idioma se vuelva internacional.

Beautiful and sparkling new and clean hotel! Great service lovely products and a good stay. My Only comment was that the ‘plant based’ kitchen offered real bacon and eggs for breakfast. Stick to your principles! This felt very unauthentic. Tiny gripe for a beautiful hotel

We stayed an overnight at this hotel and the experience was fantastic. Room was clean, with complimentary stuffs. Area is so close to the station. Staff were super friendly. We booked a room with breakfast included, and the food was superb! The only downside is, the entrance and the hotel location was a bit tricky to find although it was just in front of the station. But for the rest, it’s a very nice hotel and I would love to come back again.

For the most part the hotel is nice enough, especially for the price. Location is about 10 mins walk from a train station, which is one stop away from Antwerp Central. The staff at check in are friendly and professional. The big cons for us were these two situations; 1) When we got to our room and started settling down, I spotted underwear (previous occupants') which had found its way under one of the furniture in the room. It turned out to be clean but we informed reception on our way out into the city and they quickly apologised and had someone sent to our room to clear that out. - Cleaners could do a better job giving one last check when cleaning rooms between occupants, though I do understand that the days we were there was when the hotel was fully booked. But still. 2) That night, around 11.30pm when we were in our room with the window shut, we started hearing people shouting like hooligans from outside on the street -- so we shouted at them from our room o keep quiet as it was late and shut the window again. Then we started hearing these guys (4 or 5 of them) shout at us to go down and fight them (?) and asking us what our room number was (??). We also saw them trying to count the floors and windows. Obviously we didn't tell them, but we informed reception. About an hour later, there was VERY loud banging on our door and shouting for us to come out, once again we called reception and after a while the shouts stopped. We didn't feel very safe even to go out to the smoking area, so we called reception for some kind of help or assurance (and later on went down to talk to the person at reception at the time (the night reception, named Wim) to which we were told that; - Ppl shouting at us from the street below for our room number to go down to fight, & the people banging on our door to come out and fight was *apparently* not the same ppl. - Ppl banging on our door, was apparently a drunkard banging on everyone's door, and may not even have been a customer of theirs (which is extremely unlikely). - That we shouldn't have shouted back at them to keep quiet, because apparently it was fine to be shouting on the street directly outside the hotel up till 2am. The entire time he didn't apologise for the disturbance or reassure us even once that we would be safe - only said that they could help to call the police if something happened. -- Basically the night reception was really bad, and I was honestly worried for our safety that first night. Wasn't great.

Well there are not enough words to describe this beautiful hotel . The location was perfect the facilities the staff all very helpful . The breakfast was one of the best Hilton's I have stayed at for a long time . Fresh fruits great eggs and breads . So much choice and the staff were so helpful . Thank you all

There was no bolt on the bathroom door, which certainly must count as a distinctive design feature. The door does not click shut. The door cannot be locked. Maybe the bathroom-door bolt was ripped out in an incident lost to history and never replaced. At all events, we have taken to moving the tiny garbage can in front of the bathroom door to help prevent unwanted intrusions.

I had a very negative experience with the front desk staff that checked me in this past week. My husband and I booked a stay at this hotel back in April for 4 nights. They sent me an email stating that they weren't able to charge my credit card on the reservation, which made sense because we had forgotten we had just received a new card to replace the expired one. They asked that I look at my account, so they can charge a new card. If I failed to do that in 24 hours, then my booking would be cancelled. Approx 13 hours of receiving that email, I went in and updated the credit card information on the account and sent them an email confirming I did so. When I arrived at this hotel to check in a month later (which was this past week), the front desk staff told me that the reservation was cancelled. I showed them the email that they sent me and the one I had sent to them. I also showed them my original reservation number. They looked into it for a while, but they told me that ultimately the reservation was cancelled so they can't do anything. They were also all booked up on one of the four nights we were supposed to stay there, so they could only check us in for 2 nights (Thurs-Fri). Up to this point, I was confused but I wasn't upset. I understand things can happen, and I was eager to work this out. However, what really pushed me over the edge was the fact that the front desk staff showed no empathy for the situation I was in. I told them that I never received any email that my reservation was cancelled. I even asked if there were any other alternative hotels, as we were traveling from outside the country and did not know the area well. The staff person I was talking to responded with very little attempt at professionalism, and instead told me that we should solve this ”later” as I was holding up the line. I believe her words were along the lines of, ”you should turn around, look at the line.” When I asked her when ”later” would be, she let out a small laugh which was a very confusing response to what I thought was a valid question. This is when I was starting to feel incredulous. I wanted her assistance, but I got rudeness and condescension in return. I tried my best not to raise my voice even though I was getting frustrated, and I told her that I felt I was getting penalized for something that wasn't my fault. Still, there was no attempt to help me with the situation, and I felt like I was being waved away. At the very end of our interaction, the staff person told me that if there is a room that opens up on Sat they would contact me to let me know. I asked how they would contact me on updates (would it be through the hotel phone? My international number? Call, email, or text?) and I received a very frustrated look and a sigh in return, not a helpful response. I am still unsure why she acted this way, when I genuinely wanted to understand how I would be contacted. (And they never actually contacted me... even to tell me they were still all boo
