Hotel Pilar

It’s great to see hotels still offering coffee making facilities for the guests in their rooms, plus tiny luxuries like water bottles in the rooms as a small welcome. Please keep doing so, thank you for the pleasant experience. Keep it up!

Wonderful to stay there!!

Really nice hotel in a great area to explore Antwerp. We were in a Suite room which had a great terrace but the room itself was a bit small for a suite, other suites on the floorplan looked a bit bigger. Great day gym pass, nice bar. Would have been nice for rooms to have a fridge in, especially as tap water doesn't get that cold.

The decor and position of the hotel were excellent, very stylish and unusual. The lighting in the room was dramatic but did not include a convenient reading light. My sink had no plug and to door had to be kicked to gain access. The hotel; is very convenient to the museums of art, on a direct tram line to the historic centre and with plenty of cafes and restaurants all around. However we were led to expect a bar and cafe available to guests. The Expedia description listed A bar/lounge, A coffee shop/cafe, A restaurant, Restaurants on-site, Pilar Foodbar – This restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, dinner and light fare. Guests can enjoy drinks at the bar.' The 'Top rated breakfast' was first of all offered available only from Wednesday to Sunday and then unexpectedly on Tuesday as well. It was very nice but the same dishes varied in size from day to day. There was no dinner on Monday and Tuesday or on Wednesday and Thursday when, because of a private function, there was no access to the restaurant, cafe or bar. In fact we were told we could not have a drink on the terrace either. There is now where to sit and wait for friends in the foyer Expedia states that 'The front desk is open daily from 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM'. It was often unstaffed and we had problems checking out quickly with a taxi waiting as there were no staff available.

A super unique property, walking distance from everywhere I needed to be!
