Top Brussels Hotel Reviews
Le Louise Hotel Brussels - MGallery
"We felt very welcome at the hotel"
Hotel Indigo Brussels - City by IHG
"Amazing decor! An absolutely beautiful hotel! My only gripe is the shower. The glass wall used to keep water in the shower was on the wrong side of the tub, making it useless to stop water from getting all over the floor. Other than that, I adored the water fountains, the books, the lift decor and everything else that made this hotel so gorgeous and sustainable."
Pillows City Hotel Brussels Centre
"A wonderful luxury hotel in a great location. The staff were superbly helpful, especially with the parking situation. And those pillows - dreamy."
Cardo Brussels, Autograph Collection
"Amazing facilities and the staff was indeed helpful"
Motel One Brussels
"Room was a bit small for a one week stay, not much space to keep stuff"
Novotel Brussels City Centre
"Nice clean hotel a short walk from the centre of the old town. Close proximity to shopping and dining options. Friendly staff very willing to help. Very limited food options within the hotel, particularly if you arrive late. Only breakfast is served and the Bar has some minimal food service, supposedly till 11 or midnight. When we were there the chef had left by 10 and we were directed to go a couple of blocks away to a pedestrian area with some options there. Would probably stay there again but would now know what to expect."
ibis Brussels Centre Gare Midi
"Clean and spacious room. Staff very welcoming and helpful. Very convenient for Midi station and only a 15 minute walk to the city centre. Breakfast was delicious - lots of choice!"
Warwick Brussels Grand-Place
"Loved the stay, the rooms were nice and clean, the staff was great, and the roof top bar was a nice find for great views of the city. The hotel is a very short walk from the Central station and right behind Grand Place making it super convenient. The food & beer choices at their restaurant could have been better given the options around but not too bad either. All in all loved the hotel and would go back if in that area."
Thon Hotel Bristol Stephanie
"We stayed in the newly renovated part of the hotel and the rooms were really nice big size the bathrooms were excellent clean and spacious and all the facilities were really well maintained with great air-con as well in the summer. Create location in the city just on Louisa road so great access to everything."
