Top service from start to finish
IPCOM | 2-day event May 2026
Thank you for the good care and the excellent quality that was delivered. The commitment has really made this two-day event a particularly successful event. Especially considering everything had to be arranged on such short notice: really well done!
Also a big thank you to the entire team. From reception to restaurant, the cleaning teams,... everyone was always ready with a smile and tremendous helpfulness.
There is honestly not a single point of criticism to give. Really. We will definitely come back for the next event.
This is a hotel where hospitality feels natural
Belgocatering | 4-day training June 2026
During four days of training at Van der Valk Hotel Gent, I was especially impressed by the exceptional service. Every staff member radiates friendliness, is ready to help, and always does so with a genuine smile. You really feel welcome here. The food was also a highlight every day: well-prepared, flavorful, and of excellent quality. Everything just fits, from the reception to the service and the culinary experience. Rarely have I experienced a hotel where hospitality feels so natural. If all training sessions took place in such locations, I would sign up immediately!
Highly recommended for multi-day events
Samsonite | 4-day event May 2026
We had a fantastic 4-day event at the Van der Valk Hotel Ghent. Everything was actually very well organized from start to finish. The location was ideal, the rooms were comfortable and perfectly equipped for our activities. The staff was always friendly and helpful, and they quickly responded to our questions and needs. The food and catering were also excellent and sufficiently varied over the different days. Thanks to the good service and professional approach, we could fully focus on our event without worries. In short: a very successful experience and definitely a recommendation for multi-day events.
A complete experience: meetings, comfort and delicious catering
Milliken | 3-day event March 2026
From start to finish a very pleasant experience at Van der Valk Hotel Gent. We immediately felt welcome there. The accommodation was comfortable and stylish, and the meeting spaces were spacious, well-equipped and pleasant to work in. The new room "New York" on the 9th floor deserves special mention: beautifully decorated and with a stunning view. The dinner in restaurant Cocotte was delicious and well organized. The lunches were also well taken care of, with plenty of choice and clear attention to allergies and dietary requirements. Everything was organized down to the last detail, which really made the experience complete.
Perfectly organized and memorable
Agristo | 3-day event March 2026
We would like to thank the team of Van der Valk Hotel Gent for the excellent support during our Commercial Strategy Days. Our whole team greatly enjoyed the stay. Everything was organized down to the last detail, despite the many last-minute changes – something we certainly appreciate.
The catering in the restaurant was particularly successful, the meeting rooms were perfectly equipped and provided every comfort for our sessions. The organized activity also created a nice dynamic within the group. The ice bath session was a surprising and memorable moment for many. From start to finish, we received nothing but positive feedback from all participants.
We are already looking forward to the next collaboration in the future.

An absolute top experience
Easi | company event december 2025
The organization of our event was perfect from A to Z. Together with the sales team we were able to extensively brainstorm our ideas and the practical possibilities within the hotel. The flexibility shown beforehand was impressive, resulting in a very pleasant collaboration between the two parties. On the day itself everything ran smoothly. The on-site team was not only extremely friendly, but also highly proactive and ready to respond immediately to any request. For an event of this scale it was an absolute top experience.

Medtronic International | Aurora EV-ICD foundations & lab training
We have been working with you and your wonderful team for almost a year. I would like to highlight and thank you for your professional communication, attitude, approach, and much more. The customer service provided by all of you - the sales team, banqueting team, front desk team, F&B department, and housekeepers - is at a 5-star level in general. I don't want to leave anyone out. You are some of the kindest and most professional individuals I have encountered in hotels in recent years. I want to express my gratitude for always going the extra mile when we have special requests, which has been quite frequent.
I have to admit that we all look forward to coming back to Van der Valk Hotel Gent – due to friendly atmosphere, high quality food and all services provided. It’s been a pleasure for us to cooperate with you and your team, and we look forward to our cooperation further down the line.

Nuestra experiencia en Van der Valk fue impecable de principio a fin. ¡El equipo fue increíblemente solidario durante todo el proceso de planificación, siempre disponible para llamadas y feliz de acomodar cambios de último minuto! El lugar era acogedor, con habitaciones amplias y cómodas, ¡y la comida fue excepcional, mejor que la mayoría de los hoteles de 4 estrellas!
