Decent hotel with good location.
The hotel's staff was basically friendly and helpful. Location of the hotel was convenient just beside of the Central Station. In the hotel room there were some needs and malfunction like air condition. Breakfast was okay.

Avoid
Avoid.
AC in room didn't work and the hotel thought I should be understanding, which to a certain degree I could have been unless this information was given to me in a very (17-18 degree) cool lobby.
Light in bathroom worked only occasionally.
Flies seems to be entering the room from ventilation or cracks in ceiling.
One of two bed lamps worked.
Only little positive thing was the breakfast personal which very service minded
The location is good but there are faaaar better hotels in this area (Diamant) for same budget.

One night business stay
When we arrived the room, nr 213, was warm and the ventilation none-existing. After trying to get the AC working for 15min we realise it is controlled from the entrance and went down to ask them to turn it on. This would have been ok if it didn't turn off again during the night, which together with no-ventilation in the room made sleep uncomfortable. In general a worn down hotel in serious need of renovations. Definitely not 4 stars. Highlight is the location.

Well below standard.
Excellent breakfast. The rest not so good. Aircon not working - flashing an error which couldn’t be switched off. Reception said they controlled temperature, but it was very cold in the mornings. Hot water only lukewarm at 06:00. Bedside light not working. Shaving mirror light not working. Kettle, tea & milk provided, but not coffee or sugar. Bed had large dip at one side where it was starting to collapse. Then locked out of room on last morning after breakfast and had to return to reception to get key card reset - receptionist error. Absolutely no way is this a 4* hotel.

Overpromised Hotel
If I got a reservation in a two star hotel and it was like my stay, I would have been pleasantly happy with the quality of the trip. The AC was flaky, the control panel was broken, the TV remote was missing, the pillow (one per person) was shockingly uncomfortable (worse than my ten dollar pillow from Action), and the beds themselves had poor quality sheets. The lights as well did not work in most of the room, and we were only offered one key which seems low. Through Hotels.com, I got a deal for 45% off one of the rooms to stay here – for what I paid, it was very much worth it. However, there were no "4 star hotel" amenities or accommodations in sight, and we were not told about any if there were. Having a restaurant alone does not earn you four stars, though I cannot attest to the quality of the breakfast as we left before that. The service was good, at least.
For summary: if I had these same conditions in a two star hotel, I would feel right at home. But being promised a four star hotel and receiving what I did does not seem sufficient. I would never ask for or take a refund, as we enjoyed our stay in Antwerp.

This hotel is a good place to stage a visit to Belgium. It is clean, comfortable, and safe, and less than a 5 minute walk to Antwerpen Central train station. You can be anywhere in Belgium in less than 2 hours without packing up every day or two.

Horrible place to stay.
At 2:30 in the morning there was someone banging on every door on our floor and yelling. This went on for 20 minutes and the hotel staff did nothing.
Stay away from this dirty and very old hotel.
