8.8/10 Excellent! (439 reviews)

This is a very central location- above a very busy bar on the weekends so maybe not the best for travelling with children. Front staff were nice enough but room was T I N Y for two adults and one child. No small refrigerator in room and cream for coffee had gone bad. Aesthetics were very cool!

9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,001 reviews)

Room was very spacious. Hotel was clean. Mini-fridge in room with available microwave in lobby if needed. Quiet room. Location is not in city center but is near several places to eat including a small plaza with several eateries. Park nearby. Less than 5 minute walk to the closest train station which would get you to city center in about 10-15, so semi- convenient location. Staff were very friendly and helpful with questions. Big lobby space where people frequently sat to drink and chat in the evenings. Did not use gym. Comfortable place to stay, would recommend.

Amazing hotel. Every member of staff I came into contact with provided exceptional service. The room was spacious, nice bathtub, extremely comfortable bed and pillows. The head concierge was exceptional and scored a same day reservation for a Michelan restaurant as well. Will be back next time I am in Brussels.
