Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Corps De Garde is known for its spacious rooms, particularly the deluxe double rooms with baths, often featuring high ceilings and abundant light, and some rooms offer pleasant city views. Many guests appreciate the convenience of the Q park located across the street, and the hotel's location on the canal near parking is another plus.
