Citystay

Decent room and fantastic location but what ruined it is how close the rooms are to each other with thin walls / doors. You can literally here people chatting in their rooms and when they are leaving their rooms it’s right next to you. You’ll also hear their doors slam really shut loudly as well. Also, the soap in the showers is heavily watered down. If you wear earplugs it’s manageable but not without.

Clean, new ,modern in great location. Large rooms, even by US standards. No staff on site and no elevator if you wind up on the 3rd floor like we did. Very comfortable king size bed. Short walk to main square and to metro. Would definitely recommend as long as you can deal with stairs.

Antwerp is a curious town, apparently largely economically dependent on tourism. We stayed at CityStay, a six-unit hotel with no front desk and no breakfast service in the northwest part of the historic center. With the winding streets and frequently changing street names, the area made finding the hotel a bit tricky. Once there, however, we were very pleased. The large studio apartment was clearly the best that we stayed at in our three weeks in Central Europe. It was perfectly designed, furnished, equipped, and maintained (except for a recalcitrant coffeemaker), and it was located in convenient walking distance of all major tourist sites. Local restaurants that had survived the pandemic were O.K. at best, but overpriced coffee and pastries were available nearby. Last but not least, the cost was very economical. We would rebook in a second.

Located on the edge of the central historic district, with its winding cobblestone streets, Citystay was a bit difficult to find. Once there, however, we were in easy walking district of the main sites as well as the university district, opera area, and southern museums. The room/studio apartment was very large, sunny, comfortable, and perfectly outfitted with furniture and equipment. In fact it was a better hotel room than our follow-on room in Amsterdam, at one-third of the cost. Citystay is a bit of a walk from the tram stop but very good value.

Great location. Excellent service. Nice rooms with space to swing a cat. All in all a great place!

Although the outside of the building is unassuming we were pleased to find a well appointed and good sized and stylish room. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean and modern. The system for checking in ran like clockwork. We were emailed a code on the morning of arrival and used it to access the building and our room. The only negative was the doors and staircase were quite noisy as other guests were not making an effort to be quiet but we can’t blame the owners for that. We would definitely return, a lovely room in a great location at an excellent price.
