We traveled to Belgium for a quick couples weekend. The weather wasn't great but the food, beer and atmosphere were fabulous! We did a city tour on a bus, but wish we had been able to do the recommended boat tour. We stayed at the Grand Hotel Casselbergh
www.grandhotelcasselbergh.com and I give it the **** it was ranked on Booking.com We found Ghent to be surprisingly beautiful. Unlike many European cities, the action is centered around a large square with a wide canal running through it. We picked up a hotel in Gent last minute-Hotel Gravensteen
www.gravensteen.be It was fine and did in a pinch. We wished we had booked at the Marriott. Ghent was also hosting the kickoff to their classic music festival
www.gentfestival.be/en and the city was filled with music and people. We had way too many beers but a great time overall.

We stayed at the Marriott in Ghent. It is a great hotel right on the main canal, and has on-site parking. Loved Ghent!
