Hotel The Lodge Heverlee

Breakfast buffet gives quite some variety

Asking a server to bring your each singly cup of coffee or tea you want to drink during breakfast.Having no water boiler or coffee machine in the room.

The on site restaurant was nice but should have allowed me to put this on the room,.....they said it wasn't possible??

When the restaurant closes & they close up there isn't a small resident lounge to carry on & have a talk or further drink.

Very nice staff, and excellent restaurant with good food.

The room was extremely cold when I arrived, and once I asked if that is the best they can do (since the reception area and restaurant were nicely heated), I got a portable heater. The room was really large though, so even with the heater is was a bit chilly during the night.The room was also very dark, so since I had to work, I moved to the restaurant for several hours.It's a pity on both accounts as the room was large and nice, but I could not use it.

Both breakfast and dinner were of good quality. I had the beef trio. Beautiful inner courtyard.

Upon arrival in the entrance area, there was an unpleasant smell coming from the toilet.The room was extremely small and unfortunately did not meet expectations.The furniture was visibly worn, and the bathroom did not meet standard quality.There is no parking on the premises or in the immediate area. The nearest possible parking option was about a 15-minute walk away.Considering the price of €185, the quality and size of the room were unfortunately not in proportion to what was offered.

Rooms were clean and nice, but the Wi-Fi network was very weak.

WIFI and no elevators

I got one of the rooms in the separate building and it was wonderful: clean, much room, much wood, nice lighting, good wife, nice desk to work on.

In the back the room has a big step to a different level; very nice but with a risk to fall (eg in the dark) if you do not take care.

The building is very nice. Located in Heverlee which is a suburb of Leuven. There is a train stop about a 12 minute walk from the lodge that you can use to go to Leuven or other cities. Otherwise it is about an hour walk into Leuven. The lodge has a nice breakfast that has a wide variety of foods. I am gluten free and they provided me with gluten free bread. My room was in the historic lodge building. I loved the architecture of the building. The bathrooms could use a bit updating. The lighting also needs some attending as I had to use my flashlight because the lighting also needs outside my room and to the staircase was broke. The staff were friendly and arranged my transport back to the airport. I especially appreciate the 24/7 service desk and peaceful location.

I think some of the facilities need updating and maintenance . The lighting and A/C need maintenance.

Very polite helpful staff. Secure underground parking at a reasonable cost. We stayed in the new section which seemed fairly new and built to a good standard. There was no kettle in the room when we arrived but they immediately supplied one when we asked

There was nothing serious that we didn’t like but !! We did feel that it was minimalist design before function. There was nowhere for suitcases so they ended up on the floor! Virtually no storage. A small rail with some coat hangers over a small unit with a couple of shelves. The soap dispenser in the shower was at the opposite end to the shower head! Why ? There was an electric heater in the bathroom which was nice to have but it was placed right next to the toilet so you had to turn it off to use the toilet ( there was enough room and a long enough lead to mount it further away!!)

The only good thing is the location.

The accommodations and management were so cheap. Only one lamp on the night stand and the chord was bare showing the wire inside. The linens were not only uncomfortable but they only fit the top of a single bed, If you were a bigger person you wouldn't be covered. I went to the bar and asked for water and they resisted. The sparkling water was $7.I just can't believe how shabby the furniture was for the price. The antique wardrobe was nice but other than that it could've belonged I'm a secondhand store. NOT worth the price. I wish I took pictures to warn others.

Nice location by the university and short walk into the main area of Leuven. The rooms we had were in a separate block from the main hotel but that was fine. If it had been raining it may have been a bit inconvenient since it wasn’t covered. Nice outdoor seating areas in different parts of the hotel.

Everything was good.

Old, outdated, overpriced

Our room was old and outdated (Room 1), the mattress was TERRIBLE (springs sticking out, loud, I’ve slept on more comfortable mattresses in student dorms and hostels), pillows were old and lumpy, drain made noises all night. We barely slept and got up with back pain. There are MUCH nicer hotels in Leuven for the same price or less- this was a total rip off and nothing like the pictures online!!The staff were also unfriendly and unwelcoming - they made it seem like we were inconveniencing them by checking in and out.Will not stay here again.

We stayed only one night in this hotel... and we are very happy with our choice. The staff is very friendly and helpful; easy and fast check-in. We liked the quiet location and the beautiful surroundings with 3 restaurant options just across the street. Parking is quite easy in a nearby street and is free of charge. Reaching the city center took us about 20 minutes on foot; we got a little bit lazy on the way back and took bus number 2 which left us right across the street to the hotel. Easy, easy! Our room was very spacious, spotless clean and comfortable with its en-suite bathroom. Breakfast was excellent. Overall, we found the value provided by Hotel The Lodge Heverlee to be very good in the context of the many places we visited during our trip in Belgium. We highly recommended!

The mattress was a little bit too soft to our taste and the room a little bit dark, but these were not big issues. WiFi in the room was surprisingly bad though.

Very nice location, especially old lodge.

Rooms with terrace are very small

A wonderful hotel in a great location. Lovely meal in the restaurant and ideal for our night stopover.

We booked a suite room as it was our last night of our holidays.Unfortunately, the room didn't resemble those pictured on the listing, so we where rather disappointed. I did make the front desk aware, but due to the hotel being full, they were unable to move us to a different room, which I understand. Had we been allocated a suite as shown in the listing we would have had a wonderful stay. I think a different pricing structure for the new and old rooms, could be an idea to prevent any confusion or disappointment.

Beautiful old house turned into hotel. Very comfortable beds and amazing breakfast! Close to the university.

No AC

Even near the railway we could "enjoy the silence". Clean room, good food at restaurant, very kind staff.For sure we'll comeback,but meanwhile I am strongly recommending

We loved the layout of the rooms, the area is just so beautiful, breakfast was very tasty. The staff were very helpful.

Loved it all

The room was very nice and very relaxing. The location was nice and the staff was nice too. Everything was very clean and we even got roomslippers which I really appreciate.

It was sometimes hard to get in touch with the frontdesk for help but for the rest everything was quite nice!

Beautiful historical building with modern and clean rooms. Nice restaurant on site. We had a large family room that accommodated comfortably our family of 4. Good buffet breakfast.Brilliant location in a quiet area very close to Arenberg Castle, it's park and it's university campus. Free parking available on the street nearby and private paid parking in the hotel garage also avaliable.

Just a few small things. All the pillows were thick and firm, not quite our preference.The family room we had was located on the first floor and, because the building is very old, it doesn't have any elevator. Furthermore the stairs are a bit narrow.

Room was ok, breakfast was good, location great. Food in the restaurant was great

the toilets of the restaurant were pretty dirty
