The 3.5-star wellness hotel Orion, an Art Deco villa from 1928, was once the home of the wealthy Lalemant family in the prestigious Millionaires Quarter. Recognized for its gracious hospitality and thoughtful amenities, the resort blends historical charm with modern facilities. Located in the heart of Stationsbuurt Zuid, it is within walking distance of Ghent's museum area and beautiful 1920s architecture.

Art Deco Rooms

The elegantly designed rooms feature flat-screen TVs, minibars, safes, and desks, with private bathrooms equipped with rain showers or shower/tub combinations. Some units include seating areas, and select rooms feature bunk beds fitted for adults. All rooms come with air conditioning, heating, and soundproofing.

Nearby Dining Options

Restaurants like Sim Pizza and Ocean Garden are within 0.5 km of Hotel Orion. Breakfast is served from 7:00 to 11:00 on weekdays and 8:00 to 11:00 on weekends and holidays. A microwave in a common area is available for guest use.

Wellness Facilities

Guests can relax in the indoor swimming pool, sauna, and fitness center, with one-hour complimentary access to the wellness area. The property also offers dry cleaning and luggage storage. Free WiFi is available throughout the hotel.

Proximity to Landmarks

Hotel Orion is located 1 km from the Museum of Fine Arts and 3 km from the Belfry of Ghent. Public transport options include Gent Opvoedingstraat and Gent Zwijnaardsesteenweg bus stops, both a 6-minute walk away. The nearest airport is Antwerp International Airport, 65 km from the property.

“What stands out is the Art Deco design, originally built in 1928 and retaining that stylish, quirky charm; families, in particular, seem well-catered for, with spacious rooms and even kitchenettes available. Its location, while not in the city center, is near the museum district with convenient tram access, and the addition of an indoor pool and spa add to the appeal. I think it strikes a good balance of value and a quieter location.”
