Hidden gem
It was a pleasant surprise, I did not know Aalst and was looking for a hotel near Affligem. it is really easy to travel from Aalst without the traffic from Brussels or Antwerp.
it is a 3 star hotel with 4 star quality. The personnel is really nice and looking after you. The rooms are really spacious and comfortable, nice decoration and some state of the art tech in the rest room. They have a newly opened gastronomic restaurant, which was the best surprise as I was not expecting this but rather more a brasserie type of restaurant. Wine and food were excellent.

Great stay!
Wendy was AMAZING! She greeted our group and took the time to explain everything more than once (we had a large group) for everyone. She even recognized us on the street later and asked us how our trip was going. The room was large and clean.

Royal Astrid Hotel, Aalst
Made very welcome on arrival, parking is in public car park behind Hotel (easy walk back to Hotel) at only 3 Euros for the night. Easy walk to town for shops and bars. Restaurant next door to Hotel (and recommended by the Hotel) is excellent. Enjoyable breakfast. Very good stop off Hotel.
