The hotel is very clean and modern. The rooms a a little small and dark, but it is all in keeping with the interior design. The bed was very comfortable, the room had everything you need and the mini bar was free - this included 1 beer, 2 still waters, 2 fizzy waters, and a fizzy orange drink. The mini... More

On sunday morning there were a lot of guests, and there was one person in the breakfast room to clean the tables for other people who wants... More

Both the lobby and our room were spacious and clean with "Flemish-Mod" decor. It was great fun! We appreciated the coffee to go and found the staff helpful. We had a bit of difficulty finding the hotel, so check the location carefully, but you can walk from the train station with luggage in 10-12 minutes. The location was good for... More

A walk to the city center is an option although we only did it once. We took the tram/taxi the other times. The walk takes about 20 minutes (1,5 km) to reach Antwerp Central Station and 40 minutes (3 km) to reach the Grote Markt (center of old Antwerp) Hotel is very clean/new and modern. Bathtub and bathroom isn't very... More

The Sir Plantin is a pretty hip hotel that focuses on good design, nice staff, and some good perks. The rooms are a decent size, with big bathroom with a deep soaking tub, huge beds. The whole hotel has a fun design to it. The staff wear suit and tie, and are super-friendly and accommodating. There's free wi-fi, good tv... More

Many thanks for sharing your most valuable comments. Happy you did enjoy your stay and liked our hotel & services. I do agree that our staff should not smoke in the garage and I will personally do some spot checks to avoid this happening again.

I stayed at the Sir Plantin for one night in mid-November and had booked a train & hotel package with Eurostar. I booked it about four months in advance for a total cost of just under £129, which I thought was an extremely good price for the whole package.

We loved the alternative decor, and the staff were very helpful (even found me a charger for my ipad), however the Walls in the lobby's outside the lifts are very chipped and show up against the dark grey Colour which rather spoils the overall look.
