Lovely stay before heading home. Everything within walking distance, behind a shopping street and about a 15 minute walk to the main part of Brussels. Lovely staff too!

Walkable, Safe & Friendly Staff

The location of the hotel was awesome. It was very walkable to all places and I felt safe walking around the city. The staff was amazingly nice and very helpful. The service in the small cafe was amazing. The room was a decent size.

Brilliant hotel, welcoming staff, stylish rooms

Brilliant hotel, would happily stay there again and would recommend it to anyone. The staff were so lovely and welcoming, the rooms were very nice, and it had a nice cafe and bar downstairs. Some of the light switches in the rooms were a bit odd, not very user friendly but this was literally my only negative, we were so happy there.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Great place to stay with lots of shops, places to eat and transport nearby. The hotel is amazing, the rooms are decorated in different tones of browns and biege which look really good. My only complaint is that the rooms are only serviced every 3 days, whilst I do not expect the towels and bedding to be changed every day I do expect the bed to be made, I did not spent nearly €1200 for 7 nights and then have to make the bed myself for 6 ig the 7 nights.
