Pros +
- Everything. The renovation of the property is fabulous. It’s all excellent quality. The breakfast was delicious and a great varied choice. The staff were lovely and helpful. The labels on the bath and shower bottles were a lovely touch.
- The Owner dis à great job at offering a very nice hotel in the area as the other options are very poor. Their take on renovating this train station is great. Decoration is on point. It’s comfortable and has everything you need during your stay. The self-check-in works great. Staff was very flexible when we showed up for breakfast but had forgotten to reserve before hand. They went out of their way to make sure we could eat everything on the menu like other guests. It’s also super clean which is also a plus point.
- Gare 55 is a converted railway station. The conversion is exceptional, with fine attention to detail and highest quality fittings used throughout. We were impressed and commented to each other about a number of the smart design choices.Although the room is quite small (due to constraints of fitting into the existing station building), the space has been used in the most efficient way possible. Clearly the main market is for single business travellers looking for a self-contained flat for stays of a week or longer, but it works very well for a couple. Bed was very comfortable and room lacked nothing.There is a large shared kitchen area with indoor and outdoor seating. This provided a nice place to sit in the evening as well as the possibility of preparing one's own meals.The hosts were warm and welcoming. Location is great for day trips to Gent (10 Km from the nearest P+R with tram access to city centre).
Cons -
- I only booked a few hours earlier that day so we ended up with 2 mattresses but within a confined double bed. My friend doesn’t like sleeping that cozily! Also there was only a curtain between the sleeping area and the lovely bathroom!! Too intimate for just friends! However don’t take this as a negative as we really loved the place and would definitely return.
- The only thing that is a tiny detail! The waiting light (green dot) of the security light (in case of a fire) above the front door is very bright and for people like us who like our room dark it was too bright. As it’s on the ceiling we couldn’t cover it. But then again most people would never notice :)
- Nothing, I think this is the most perfectly-designed place I have ever stayed.

Clean, comfortable, quiet, stylish with friendly owners.
Not too many local eating options on a Saturday night when travelling by bike.
I had an amazing experience staying at Gare 55 Hotel and highly recommend it to anyone. The hospitality was excellent, they highly care about your comfortable stay. The rooms are clean, modern design and easily self-access. Located in a calm area, it offers a peaceful retreat while still being conveniently located. The breakfast is excellent and everything is fresh. Overall, Gare 55 provided an outstanding experience, and I would definitely stay here again.
Original setting (converted train station)Awesome smell of everythingGreat quality of all interiors, exteriorSoundproof is goodTasty, delicious breakfast, real crossaint is worth it
My room was bit small but there are many. Looking great though
Good privacy
No staff, everything has to happen via QR-thing.
Wouldnt stay again for the price
Smelt stale in the room - could still smell the previous person’s must in there. Train tracks next to the property which was noisy and woke me up in the night. Breakfast was extortionate and not good value for money.
everything new, cooked breakfast special to my request
i object to the toilet supposed modern design of NO DOORS. Sorry but this is stupid . i had to open the room door for ventilation. it is not nice to smell the toilet . recommend a door immediately
Great property and very clean and comfortable.
