We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 nights at Schopenhauer, split between two very different suites. Both suites were spacious, comfortable and fun! There were books and pieces of art in both suites which made our stay interesting and enjoyable. Each suite had particular features - the sunken bed in the first one was very comfortable and the shower and outdoor space in the second one was great. In all the accommodation was great and added much to our visit to Ghent. The location of Schopenhauer was really good for exploring the city. A very few minutes walk took you to the heart of the city - the castle, the bell tower and cathedral.

It was quirky - lots of interesting books, artwork and furniture. Lots of space and in a fantastic location. It was easy to find and access the property. The landlord was very amenable.

Toilet’s small and not very private. It’s quite hard to get out of bed ( being built into the floor) but we knew that when we booked. It’s a little tatty in places: wallpaper peeling above the bed, shutters not working.

The room is very spacious and in a great location. There is a shared corridor that leads to the bathroom, but we didn't hear anyone else around while we were there. The view from the room is lovely and the self check in process very easy.

Cleanliness could be improved. We moved the tray on the coffee table and there was a condom wrapper under it. You could tell thay tray hasn't been moved in ages and not nice to find that in the room.

We liked absolutely everything. There's not much to add to the accolades other guests already wrote. The location is absolutely superb in the "centre of everything", the host was very communicative, supportive and kind, the room is fabulously romantic and designed exactly as a honeymoon suite for couples interested in culture, history and arts. There's nothing else to add except for 10/10. We will happily return.

If you want an exceptional experience, specially if you are traveling with spouse or partner, then look no further! Schopenhauer offers an artistically designed suit, in which you will fall in love. Decoration, lighting and interior is eye-catching! The suit is way bigger than average you can get in Europe within such price range. The location is ideal, only 2 min walk from Gent's historical center. There are several amazing eating places nearby. The hosts are a lovely couple, very friendly and intellectual! They will do their best to ensure a comfortable stay for the guests. The place comes with few nice surprises, which I won't spoil in here. For me, it was the best reservation I've ever made on booking.com!

If you are traveling on own car, parking will be an issue nearby. Other than that, everything was perfect!

Eric's place - on the river in the heart of this beautiful medieval city - is the most elegant and comfortable B+B we've stayed in. Impeccable taste and decor - the room is furnished gorgeously and adorned with books in several languages - very, very comfortable shower and bathroom and pitch perfect location. The only downsides we could find are that the photos on Booking.com don't seem to capture how elegant and comfortable it is, and that we had to leave after a single night. This sounds like it might have been written by the owner, but I'm a genuine guest. Best value for money in Ghent. Joseph (London)

We liked everything.

In the old quarter of Ghent, on a cobbled canalside street filled with cool bars and an art shop and a bookshop - Schopenhauer is an amazing gallery space which becomes all your own to step inside and relax with books and paintings and a huge sunken bed and a sunken bath. The hospitality is exceptional and definitely book the breakfast!
