Best Hotels near Couillet, Charleroi

If you have visited several Novotels, you are used to certain standards, from both room, staff and bar/restaurant. In Charleroi, unfortunately, only the room was made: the mine was super-sized, clean, modern and handy furnished. The shower was the best ever, and the (separate) bath was faster than I had ever seen (and that at the highest floor!) The choice of breakfast buffet was quite limited: especially fruit and vegetables were missing. The coffee machines were outside the breakfast room (best unhappy) and one of the two was defect every four days of my stay (very unhappy). The quality of coffee was consistent with the quality of the other breakfast products: moderate to average. The staff, which is very much praised in the reviews, must have been on holidays in a collective manner. The receptionists I found were uninterested, unpleasantly turned up their standard dresses and bloated out only in the active non-health of the guests when they passed. Even eye contact was too difficult, but the city itself was much more beautiful (or less ugly) than expected: in particular the centre and station area are very beautifully decorated in an invitation style. The majority of the people have not yet developed, and I have not yet met so many underdeveloped people in any Belgian city as this. If you want to visit any city in Hengegouwa, then Mons (Bergen) is a more wise and safer choice. You can walk on the street after ”closure time” without being contacted (by bearers) or called (by hang youths). In Charleroi you will be best inside at 19.00 hour, with the door closed. ;-)

Booked this hotel as our flight was cancelled and thought it would be best to spend the night in the city instead of the airport. It’s our own fault for booking this place I would t even give this hotel a 1 star it honestly is so bad. You can see it from the bus terminal and it looks really old and dirty from outside the reception looks old and dated but it doesn't look that dirty once you take the lift you notice how bad it really is. The carpets are all stained and then the rooms so our room was on the 4th floor I would go as far to say it’s the worse room I have ever stayed in. The air conditioning isn’t working. It’s so small the bed looks disgusting the sheets look clean. If we could afford to leave and get another room we would. Do not stay here you will honestly regret it. Stay somewhere else we panicked as our flight was cancelled and rushed to get a room for the night biggest mistake. Area around hotel is also very ropey looking lots off people just hanging outside

The hotel facilities are good, the rooms and beds are good. When you stay at the hotel, the host will ask you for the flight, so that you can use the private van to take you to the Southern Charleroi Airport the next day. The only downside is that the location of the hotel is a bit biased. There is no direct car when you check in. You must first arrive at the Southern Charleroi Airport by car and then walk 5.5 km (navigate yourself) to get to the hotel.

We were attracted to this facility by the fact that it is declared to be 300 metres from Charleroi airport.. unfortunately the 300 metres have been revealed a few km .. About 3 and a half ...Then you need to use taxi shipping service or eventually have a own means for which at least there is free parking. This very kind staff, the structure is beautiful but of course as ”support” for the road from and for the airport without too much expectation.

The first thing to say is - I'm not usually a Youth Hostel person so I'll give the Auberge de Jeunesse lots of credit here. Met by friendly receptionist who was helpful in telling me all the important information including the shuttle bus back to Charleroi Airport. The room I got was a ”Basic Single Room” - which was just a 2 bed dorm with Single occupancy. It did exactly what it said on the tin - it had a bed, toilet, shower, sink, plugs and table/chairs - just what was needed for an overnight stay. The bed was comfortable despite having to do the pillowcase/bed sheets/duvet cover myself, but I guess that's a hostel thing! The one downside to my stay was the amount of noise from outside my room - which I believe was next to a shared area. Constant banging, whistling and cheering until about 12.30am led to not much sleep being had until then - luckily my flight home was in the afternoon, it would be awful if you had an early connection! Breakfast was offered and was a good continental offering, some hot food would have been nice but the breakfast I had was more than acceptable. For a grand total of €37 including breakfast, this place is extremely good value for money, but expect noise before you go to sleep! I would return if I was coming back to Charleroi.

The second time I stayed at this hotel, I was still very satisfied. It was very convenient to catch the early flight from the airport. All facilities were available. The room was cleaned and a bottle of pure water was sent!

Very close to the main street. Clean an beautiful inside. This is a fitness center at the ground floor but we haven't made use of it. It was amazing to see my name on the TV when I stapped into the room. The reception is very friendly and provided service at a professional way. Highly suggested.
