August

We had a really wonderful stay at this hotel. Loved the overall design and the design of the rooms. The room was spotless and comfortable, I enjoyed the lovely products in the bathroom. The breakfast and the breakfast service was especially good and we found the staff helpful and welcoming. The option of a few tram lines nearby so easy to navigate anywhere in the city.

This is a gorgeously renovated former monastery, in an interesting neighborhood, and every detail is perfect: lovely room, incredibly comfortable bed with beautiful linens, great amenities, gorgeous bathroom -- what more could one want? Also, an extraordinary number of top-quality breakfast choices, very good bar food for a light supper, and super nice staff throughout the hotel.

A very nice hotel with a beautiful decoration. Very comfortable as well. Staff was friendly and breakfast is excellent. Special mention for the person making the cocktails in the evening and the very nice lady serving breakfast. But we were a bit disappointed not to stay in the main building and being in the building across which made us feel like we were staying at a nice airbnb rather than a hotel. We were never proposed to be relocated in the main building despite the fact that we stayed for 4 nights. Also, the hotel is far from the city center and nice neighborhoods. A good 30mn walk to get back after visiting crossing a rather sad area. We’ll probably stay closer to the center for our next stay in Antwerp.

Had a lovely stay at August. The hotel is beautifully designed - every corner makes for great visual experience. It’s in a residential area of Antwerp, which I actually really enjoyed - it’s a very quick bike ride away from Cogels-Osylei and many great neighborhood cafes (e.g. Polly). I appreciated the bike rental and overall service provided. Also the library had a wonderful selection of books and was a great spot to get some work in. I did find it odd that the hotel doesn’t have a gym onsite - otherwise everything was great and I’d recommend August for any Antwerp stay.

Excellent restaurant !! Fantastic location. Great service !! :-) Thanks a lot for this fabulous experience (especially for my birthday)

I’ve ideated over visiting Antwerp and staying at the August hotel for over a year now. As an admirer of Vincent Van Duysen’s work, this was the primary reason for my long awaited visit. The design and surroundings of the hotel certainly don’t disappoint, however, minimalism was also a feature of the staffs behaviour. |I wish my experience lived up to my expectations but a beautiful hotel without hospitality alludes to just smoke and mirrors. Even though I had a pleasant enough stay, it was missing warmth and welcome which is exactly what you look for when you’re a visitor to a foreign city.

Beautiful hotel, with stunning architecture and tasteful interior! We stayed for 3 nights. |We were unable to eat dinner there, as they were fully booked on Saturday, and there is no restaurant service on a Sunday. Perhaps if they had recommended to book dinner in advance at time of check in, we may have been able to make a reservation and not be disappointed. We had cocktails and ordered food from the stunning bar. The service could have been better, and the food was average. |The Spa is lovely. 1 hour use for a couple costs €85, and you have exclusive use, (unless a stranger guest walks in accidentally when you have decided to go nude because nobody else should be there!). I had a full body massage, which was relaxing, and the Therapist was very nice!|I do feel, that guests of the Hotel should be given an hour free use of the Spa. I hadn’t realised when I booked, that I would have to pay extra for use of the Spa. |Parking is €30 per day. |There are no bars and restaurants close by. Grote Markt, and Central Station has excellent night life with plenty of bars and restaurants. Both approximately 40 minutes walk, and even easier by tram. |Although a lovely hotel, I wouldn’t stay here again if I returned to Antwerp.

I can’t believe the terrible experience I had at August Hotel! Every room I stayed in had flies! I checked in today and initially chose a standard room. Upon entering, there was a fly buzzing around and even landing on the bed. I immediately called the front desk, and a man who claimed to be the manager came up. He first said he would send someone to deal with the fly, but flies carry bacteria wherever they land! I refused his offer, and he then said I had to wait until 3 PM to change rooms.||By 2 PM, I decided to upgrade to the Experience room for an additional charge, hoping for a better environment. However, when I entered the new room, there was still a fly! I called the front desk again, and a lady came up much later. She saw the fly but her solution was simply to open the window, showing no concern about potentially letting in more flies!||Up to this point, I had not received a single apology or compensation. The lady even asked me where I was from. When I said the United States, she asked if there were no flies in America. My goodness! Of course, hotel rooms don’t have flies!||This is by far the worst hotel I have ever stayed in!
