"I rarely leave negative reviews, but this stay was a complete mess. The apartment has potential, but it was dirty, neglected and poorly managed. The dishes and surfaces were sticky, several items were old or broken, and the bathroom had a strong sewer-like, damp smell. There was no air conditioning and not even a fan during extreme summer heat. Opening the windows only filled the apartment with mosquitoes, day and night. There is also a large glass-recycling container directly below the...

"BEDBUG INFESTATION - AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!! I checked in to this property on 6 August 2026. The unit had a severe bedbug infestation which I noticed and informed the property management of ~30 minutes after arrival. I obviously could not stay there. After leaving for an alternate accommodation, I noticed bugs in my backpack (which was on the floor beside the bed), so I had to bring my belongings to a laundromat, and some items required replacing as they could not tolerate high heat without being...

Top University District Hotel Reviews

Radisson Blu Hotel, Antwerp City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Great staff room was great"

A-STAY Antwerpen

10/10 Excellent

"Pretty much amazing and safe for the price, nicest staff, always available drinks and 2am snacks. Rooms are simple and well layed out, with ample room for each occupant. Two caveats, however. One was our sink plug, broken upon arrival, but that was far from a problem and I know that they would have fixed it should we have needed that service. Two, safes are not secure, as ours was giving us trouble and I was able to GOOGLE a universal safe unlock code for the make and model very easily. This startled us a bit, and I'm sure it's an issue that other safes face, but just don't put 100% trust in it. Despite that, our room felt very secure in the care of the staff. This is the best deal, the best location and the best hotel we were able to find in Antwerp, by miles."

YUST Antwerp

8/10 Good

"The place is great. Very new, clean and well maintained. Bed was good, had a curtain for a bit of privacy. There is a light however mine did not work. There is a eu c or e round outlet plus 2 usb a ports. My room had a shared toilet and shower. Personally I do not like this. The room can sleep 8 people so you could be waiting to use the facilities. I prefer the dormitory multi toilet and shower setup. The hostel is about 30 minutes walk from the town square and central station. I found the Velo Antwerp bike app great for getting around. Lovely city, well maintained. I was there Sunday until Tuesday morning. Not ideal, many shops closed Sunday and Monday most opened at 11 am and started to close at 4-5 pm. Nice working hours. Still had a great time and it’s a good time of the year to be there."
