Reviews for Kennedy Hotel
Review 1:Beds were hard, and felt like they had a plastic cover, not a pleasant nights sleep. Only one lift was working which meant a long wait to get up to the room or down to the Restaurant/Outside.
Review 2:The location, facilities, food was great although Breakfast was a little sparse.
Review 3:First of all, when entering it didn't smell fresh. I can understand that a room won't smell fresh if it hasn't been used for a while. What really struck me, is that when I went to bed, there was a smell of sweat. Both the blanket and the sheets had this smell. It was disgusting. It looks like they didn't change the bedsheets. When I complained, they confessed they've had more reports about this and that the housekeeping crew didn't do their work properly. I was offered a new room. This one seemed to have clean sheets, however the poster/painting on the wall had dead insects behind the glass frame. They probably should introduce room inspections to see if the rooms are up to standard. I won't be recommending this hotel to my colleagues at least...
Review 4:For Breakfast you are made to sit in a crowded area even though there were better tables with light and air! Hair drier didn't work Bedside light didn't work Room a bit cramped
Review 5:bit out of the way, quiet location, would be perfect as a business meeting venue
Review 6:very friendly helpful staff, very comfortable bed,lovely food, would stay there again
Review 7:The room was very 'tired' ...the carpet and walls were stained. The toilet seat was not in a good state. The wardrobe drawer was broken.
Review 8:The buffet breakfast was good. Large choice of food and good quality.
Review 9:Breakfast wasn't great. Very limited and felt the price of the room was a bit more than I could justify for this particular Hotel.
Review 10:I liked the large spacious room, lovely and quiet, just what I needed after a long drive.
Review 11:Rude staff dirty slept in beds little present left for me in the toilet ripped curtains shower took ten minutes to heat they had a restraunt but couldn't be bothered to open it probably one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in
Review 12:Bed very comfy
Review 13:Breakfast staff were off hand and did not get offered coffee/tea Bedroom was small (think Ibis small), and expensive for what you got. Bathroom also small. Away from the public areas the hotel was in need of renovation and updates Whilst the hotel is great for the Expo it is an 18 euro taxi ride to the city center Except for the hotel restaurant and bar, there is no where close by to eat - so factor in a long walk or 40 euro for taxi to and from the city
Review 14:Reception and staff were very helpful Breakfast was extremely good with a good range of food Bar and public areas modern and well maintained Ample parking Hotel restaurant 5 minutes walk to the Expo and about 20-25 minutes to the city center. Bus line runs from Expo but did not seem to be often. The city has some excellent restaurants
Review 15:A part of the carpet baseboard had fallen off and lay in the exact same spot on the floor for the entire stay (3 nights). The cleaning staff must have vacuumed around it. Bathroom door handle was loose and felt like it would come off entirely at any moment. Air condition works but is very noisy. Tea and coffee making facilities (aka a water cooker) present, but didn't get refills of the tea I used. Free wifi, but very unreliable. The hotspot sometimes disappears entirely, you have to log in again a lot. The lack of attention to details like that (which could easily be fixed) makes me wonder about the management of the hotel.
Review 16:Big room and bathroom. Decent breakfast menu with a large selection of breads etc. That is, if you show up early. By 8 o'clock, many of the bread baskets were empty and didn't get a refill. Location is perfect if you want to go the Xpo. But it's literally located on the outskirts of the town (think one of the last buildings). There's not much nearby in terms of shops or restaurants.
Review 17:The breakfast ha little choices. I would like to have something coocked for breakfast but only brood and cereals. But there is open shop from 7. o'clock, they got warm brood and it comes cheaper than those that served in the restaurant.
Review 18:I got this time smoking room with better exclusive looking and nicer room than last time. Very clean, friendly staff, very good soft bed, minibar. Plenty of space for this price in room.
Review 19:persons from non-northern countries should consider that the ideas when to have dinner differs ! There they start in the afternoon and a 9.30 kitchen tend to close....
Review 20:very nearby the fairground but complete away from the nice city
Review 21:We booked this hotel because we wanted to be able to check in anytime. The 24h check in was clearly stated on the booking. Check in was smooth but the receptionist was rude about check out at 6 am a day later. He said check out was at 7 am and that we had only paid for 1 night even though we got 2. Which was not our fault. Plus there was no free internet as advertised. They cannot complain about checkout and checkin if they advertise themselves wrong.
Review 22:Bathroom and bed was clean.
Review 23:Plastic covers on the bed! Very uncomfortable.
Review 24:The location to the Expo. Food was okay, breakfast was limited.

Review 27:Room small, old-fashioned and not renovated, heating a bit exotic.

Review 49:Location. Very close to the expo. Clean, great staff, great food. Rooms are good, beds too. Breakfast is good too.
Review 50:Old/basic furnitures, small room but I paid a very low price. Awning in the bath tub.
Review 51:Excellent restaurant.
Review 52:Room very basic. Lacked coffee making faclities and the layout of the room meant that the mirror was tucked away in a dark corner, making if difficult to put make up on and style hair. Bathroom was so small it was hard to sit on the toilet without something fixed to the wall jabbing into the side of you. There was no hot water in the eveing so could only have a cold shower. Hot water returned in the morning.
Review 53:efficiency of the reception staff
Review 54:Restaurant lacked atmosphere, perhaps some background music would lighten it up a bit.
Review 55:Wifi worked well, buffet breakfast was varied. Coffee ok. Fixed price menu good but repetitive. .. perhaps a small selection on a special board would be a good alternative to 3 course meal?
Review 56:Rooms and bathrooms are quite small. But I still think the Kennedy is a 10.
Review 57:The staff is excellent, we stay here because of the staff. They remember you if you return and are prompt to fulfill any request. And because the food is always good and reasonably priced. Good lounge and bar area.
Review 58:AS very impersonal hotel. Staff really could not care less used by commercial folk who are obviously not paying for the accommodation. Would not stay there again
Review 59:- very bad bed - too cold in room trough airco, no controlling possible. - one elevator didn't work. The carpet from the fire escape hall is very rusty and moldy.

Review 62:The hotel was great, the staff were friendly and polite at all times and the service great. The rooms were nice and comfortable and clean, I have stayed here before a few times and it has always been a nice stay, would recommend to others to stay here
Review 63:Waiting for ages to get booked in at reception, with no one explaining to me why the wait. Lack of tea/coffee facilities in all rooms.
Review 64:Clean rooms. Good location to expo halls in Kortrijk. Lovely restaurant.
Review 65:Probably "design". Modern building good for businessenvironment. We were on vacation so it was a bit "cold". Butthe décor was good; just not our favorite style.
Review 66:Great staff; all friendly. Very good food any time of day. We noted itis a "country-side hotel" but good for a city trip. It is onthe edge of Kortrijk, just a 2-3 minute drive to the center of thecity, but definitely out of the built up area. Movie complex acrossthe street.
Review 67:It was a very nice hotel and the staff were wonderful. The purpose of our visit was to attend a dog show at the Xpo. The location was brilliant as it took us about 5 minutes to walk to the show. We didn't have breakfast, we requested something to take with us and we were provided with a very nutritious packed lunch. I would highly recommend the Kennedy Hotel to anyone. All being well we will be returning again next year. Thank you for a most enjoyable stay.
