Great Nieuw

About this place

A monumental building in the historic heart of Ghent and an interior designer with impeccable taste. Combine the two and you end up with Great, Greetje Tuts' passion project. That alone would be more than enough, but there's more. Great is located in the Prinsenhof, the medieval gem of the city and the place where Emperor Charles V was born. Here, Greetje and her husband Patrick bought an old building, consisting of three dilapidated houses fromthe^17th and^18th centuries, which they patiently and sustainably restored.

The imposing wooden staircase and gate were neatly preserved, and the layout of the protected monument was also maintained, giving you a nice tension between the historical and contemporary architecture. So a unique mix and that goes just as well for the interior. Greetje succeeds time and again in creating an eclectic universe with beautiful objects and unique items, both flea market gadgets and designs by established designers and work by young artists. Piece by piece personal finds that she brings together into a unique whole.

Great has in six accommodations for 2 persons: 2 apartments and 4 rooms with ensuite bathrooms. You will stay there in peace, as Great is an adults only accommodation. The bright and particularly spacious apartments on the 1st floor are eclectically decorated and fully equipped. The rooms with ensuite bathroom are located on the ground and 1st floor. In the bathrooms you will find delightful products by Marie-Stella Maris. Guests can also relax in one of the cozy living areas and on the lovely roof terrace. From early morning until late at night, here Ghent is always at your feet majestically. Or your own rest oasis in the middle of the city. Book from 2 nights!
