    Its not a top of the line hotel, it's a hostel. If you put all the luxury aside and go back to basics, then it's pretty decent. Kind staff. Totally not crowded when i was there. I had an entire 6p. room for myself. Shower was good. Free and fast wifi, plenty of power outlets. And there is a broad choice of breakfast. Washer and dryer are just around the corner. Not too far from the train station. Overall good.

    During my stay at Hostel Groenighe , I was taken in last min by a reception of kind faces . Being an International Athlete from South Africa . The overall vibe from the whole hostel left me with the only purpose to give the Hostel 5 Stars . This being the first hostel I’ve ever stayed at , it set a standard for every other place I would travel to for competition. The breakfast was good enough for the price paid for the day. The rooms were spacious and clean and I appreciated the overall hygiene standard kept in the hostel. A special thank you to Mona , one of the best staff members I’ve encountered during my stay in Europe. The hospitality and friendly nature emitted from her left a good image of how foreigners are meant to be treated . Overall , every other staff member assisted me in tending to my requests. Thank you for the hospitable stay Hostel Groenighe . I look forward to coming back here next year and would recommend it to anyone else looking for a central and convenient hostel in Kortrijik.

    (Translated by Google) Clean hostel, spacious rooms, separate bathroom, cozy sitting areas per floor. Nicely prepared breakfast with lots of variety. Good location. Rooms are well insulated. Small downside: inside it is very hot, despite the fact that it is not that hot outside. (Original) Propere hostel, ruime kamers, aparte badkamer, gezellige zithoekjes per verdiep. Mooi verzorgd ontbijt met veel variatie. Goede ligging. Kamers zijn goed geïsoleerd. Klein minpuntje: binnen is het erg warm, ondanks dat het buiten niet zo warm is.

    Terrible location to be because a train goes past every 10 minutes and the beds become a water slide if you sweat

    Overall it's one of the best hostels I visited. While the price is a bit higher than some others, it's definitely worth it. The rooms are big and spacious and the 2 windows in every room open wide for ventilation. There's even great air conditioning in the room. The cafeteria was huge and beautiful, and the buffet had quite a large variety. The outside backyard area was also enormous, and they provided toys to play with. Definitely quite the treatment for such a low price.

    Central town location, walk to town centre/high street in 5 minutes. Staffs are all friendly, however very least contact maybe because we didn't need much😅, and they aren't onsite 24/7. Room is very basic setting, two beds, two chairs and one small square table, no more than these, simple however clean 👍.

    I was warmly welcomed by the Hostel host Senne, who was very kind and accommodating. The rooms were very clean, spacious, and bright. I lost my card key and was promptly raken care of by the amazing staff.

    Well located hostel in a quiet part of town within walking distance to everything Kortrijk has got to offer. Rooms are clean, spacious and light, reception is very friendly and super helpful and breakfast is just heavenly

  • 4/5 Agknaton B. 8 years ago on Google
    Nice place, close to the city center and train station (<10 minutes). The staff is very thoughtful and helpful. The building is new(2015) so everything looks good. Good breakfast too.

  • 3/5 Cheryl B. 6 years ago on Google
    Decent hostel in a decent location.Friendly staff and nice big rooms/bathrooms.Had to knock a mark off for cleanliness as our bathroom bin hadn't been emptied and bathroom floor wasn't v clean.Also relatively expensive when compared to our budget hotel in Brussels. We were on a cycle holiday and hostel let us keep our bikes indoors which was really helpful.

  • 5/5 Martin H. 1 year ago on Google
    Rooms not at all built for audio dampening, regardless whether it's a matter of indoor audio penetration or street & rail noise coming from the outside. There should also be nightlight options available. Apart from that, it's a great place. Very nice people. Perfect for various team tours, including trekking and roadbike cycling to Roubaix etc.

    Beautiful new building, super clean, friendly helpful staff, a quiet sleep, close to the station and historic centre, good beers in the hostel bar... What else could you ask for?!

  • 5/5 William B. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderfully modern hostel. I stayed here for 7 days. Yes, 7 days in Kortrijk. One day we went to Ghent and realised that we should have stayed in Ghent, but that’s not the fault of this hostel. Great breakfast and nice little bar. We had bikes and were allowed to keep them in the room. Would happily return but we’ll be staying in Ghent next time, but again that’s not the fault of the hostel. Also worth checking out Brother Isiodore’s grotto which is at the back of the hostel.

    Wasn't too crowded when I visited, so it was very nice and calm. Everything in the shared room was great, quite spacious, internet was great (on phone wifi ~220Mbit/s download, ~28Mbit/s upload), breakfast was great!

    (Translated by Google) Is always nice to stay here. Impression that it is never really busy there, don't you think that you have slept with more than 2 people in a room? Nice breakfast, also nice to see that they work as ecologically as possible. The only thing I miss is the option to order lunch or dinner, although you can order a natural meal from elsewhere. And also the bicycle shed, which everyone - also from the outside - has access to. (Original) Is hier telkens fijn verblijven. Indruk dat het er nooit echt druk is, denk niet er al met meer dan 2 man op een kamer te hebben geslapen? Lekker ontbijt, ook fijn om te zien dat men zo ecologisch mogelijk te werk gaat. ENige wat ik mis, is optie om lunch of diner te bestellen, al kan je natuurlijke maaltijd laten bestellen van elders. En ook de fietsenstalling, dat iedereen - ook van buiten uit- hier toegang tot heeft.

    (Translated by Google) Located just 500 m from the center of trendy Kortrijk. Beautiful ultramodern hostel, very nicely polished. No old-fashioned rooms here, but all super sleek. Stayed in a double room with private bathroom (private toilet, sink and shower with nice hot water). Staff super friendly, everything with a smile. Breakfast with plenty of choice (bread, different types of fillings, tasty coffee, juice and fresh fruit). Remember that this is a hostel and not a luxury hotel. In terms of JHB one of the better ones! (Original) Gelegen op slechts 500 m van het centrum van het hippe Kortrijk. Mooie hypermoderne hostel, heel netjes gepoetst. Hier geen oubollige kamers, maar alle superstrak. Logeerde in een tweepersoonskamer met eigen badkamer (eigen toilet, lavabo en douche met lekker warm water). Personeel supervriendelijk, alles met de glimlach. Ontbijt met voldoende keuze (brood, verschillende soorten beleg, lekker koffie, fruitsap en vers fruit). Niet vergeten dat dit een hostel is en geen luxehotel. Qua JHB één van de betere !

    (Translated by Google) Basic, nothing to complain about. Neat, friendly welcome. But where is fun? Where's the heat? Is this what Flanders wants to stand for to welcome foreign and domestic young people? Nb. No criticism of the fantastic staff that you still want to receive warmly in this cold structure. Be welcome in this large concrete bunker. (Original) Basic, niets op aan te merken. Netjes, vriendelijk onthaal. Maar waar is gezelligheid? Waar is de warmte? Is dit waar Vlaanderen voor wil staan om buitenlandse en binnenlandse jongeren te verwelkomen? Nb. Geen kritiek op het fantastisch personeel die je toch warm wil ontvangen in deze kille structuur. Wees welkom in deze grote betonnen bunker.

    As an Erasmus student, living there for 6 months was the best decision I ever made. I had a amazing time there: the staff are wonderfully kind, friendly and helpful. I recommend this place 100%.

  • 5/5 C R. 11 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    My experience staying here was 100% recommended. The staff of the hostel are there for you 24/7, and they are happy to help anytime you need. Also, this is one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at, very nice installations and very cleaned. Will come back soon!!!

    Our group of 25 had a fantastic seven-night stay at Hostel Groeninghe. The warm welcome and flexibility in accommodating our late-night work sessions were much appreciated. The rooms were simple yet clean, ensuring a comfortable stay. The hostel readily catered to our vegetarian dietary needs, and the option for lunch was convenient. While breakfast could be more varied, the overall dining experience was satisfactory. The hostel's bar provided a cozy atmosphere for socializing. Overall, Hostel Groeninghe offers a welcoming atmosphere, clean accommodations, and attentive service, making it a great choice for travelers visiting Kortrijk.
