Top Brussels Hotel Reviews

Warwick Brussels Grand-Place

10/10 Excellent

"Location"

Thon Hotel Bristol Stephanie

8/10 Good

"Really like this hotel for convenience and comfort. Disappointed that they no longer provide water in the room. Single female travelling I don’t want to come down in the evening to reception to have to fill my water up multiple times. Gym equipment needs updating- the rower has been on its last legs for a long time and sounds like it is about to break."
