Poor check in. Little assistance available. Asked for a map of the local area and got one the size of a soap. Excellent housekeeping and restaurant-bar staff. Windows are paper thin. We listened to men arguing each night from the apartment building across the street at 2am every morning.

Had a lovely night here on our Belgian tour. Couldn’t fault the hotel - great room, clean bathroom and good shower. Central location too. Road works outside the hotel but had no effect on our stay and didn’t notice any noise. Lovely touch was the glass of Prosecco on arrival.

My mum and I stayed for 3 nights, the hotel is gorgeous, great location and the staff are really friendly. I would have given 5 stars, however, we were disappointed that our shower was broken during our stay and wouldn't drain properly. On reporting, an engineer came on the second night, but was even worse. We were not offered any form of compensation for this.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. My biggest problem with this hotel is the bed. The bed was awful. Waking up on vacation sore and uncomfortable isn't ideal. The breakfast was wonderful as was the staff on duty for the breakfast.

Liked this hotel and would stay there again. However next time we would pay a little extra and opt for a bigger room than we had on this stay. We were there for 4 nights , and the room we had was probably only suitable for a 1 or 2 night stay.

Das Hotel ist wirklich wunderbar, wir waren begeistert und die zentrale Lage ist hervorragend. Der Standort ist unmittelbar am Zentrum, jedoch nicht in der Fußgängerzone, was entsprechend ruhiger ist. Das einzige derzeitige Manko (Sep. 2023) ist eine große Straßenbaustelle unmittelbar vor dem Hoteleingang.

This is the perfect place to stay in Antwerp. It’s located centrally - close to the train station, historic town square including the church designed by Ruben, and is walkable to local hangouts and shopping areas. The hotel has a cool history being a former bank and the staff are knowledgeable about this history and the area.

I was so happy that I chose Hotel FRANQ for my last stop in Belgium - at the end of a trip when you start to get a little bit tired. The staff was remarkable, going above and beyond in every way. The room was spacious and comfy - the right amount of luxury without being stuffy. And, as a treat I had dinner one night at their Michelin starred Restaurant FRANQ and the food and the staff were amazing. I loved this place and would choose it again if I were to visit Antwerp again.
