Top Brussels Hotel Reviews

First Euroflat Hotel

8/10 Good

"——"

Aris Grand-Place Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A very nice hotel which is a 5 minute walk from Brussels Central train station. Brussels Central train station being a one stop train journey from Brussels Midi/zuid and the train staff in both stations very helpful with platform information and train times. The hotel staff were very friendly and we were offered an early check in for €20 which we were glad to accept so we could freshen up before heading out to explore Brussels centre which was literally on the doorstep of the hotel. Room was exceptionally clean and the bed was extremely comfortable which all adds to a very pleasant stay. Only thing that didn’t suit our personal taste was the breakfast served in the coffee shop on the ground floor. Our preference would be a buffet breakfast but the selection we made from a very limited menu was very nice indeed. We were advised when we booked out that had we mentioned our preference of a buffet breakfast earlier in our stay then we would have been offered this in another one of their local hotels. Unfortunately we were not aware of this possibility but maybe worth considering letting guests know of this option. This was a minor thing and would not affect our decision to stay here again as and when we are next in Brussels."

Sheraton Brussels Airport Hotel

8/10 Good

"très proche de l'aéroport, calme. La ventilation/climatisation pas très efficace toutefois"

Warwick Brussels Grand-Place

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel and the staff were lovely. We were able to check in 3 hours early and park our car, which was lovely. The 4th floor corner room was a great size with many large windows opening to the street. We went to the rooftop bar with lovely views, even with the rain!"

Le Louise Hotel Brussels - MGallery

10/10 Excellent

"Modern hotel. Upscale experience. Very helpful Bellhop and Reception Staff. Room was spacious , upscale with L'Occitane soaps and luxurious spa amenities - robe and slippers.. We found dirt on the rug of the room when we entered and they cleaned it immediately."

Pillows City Hotel Brussels Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Great property, very close to everything we wanted to see and do in Brussels. We arrived by Train to Brussels Central train station, it was a very short walk to the hotel. The hotel is literally next door to St Michaels Cathedral and a short walk to Grand Place and other typical tourist spots. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Great place to stay and highly recommend."

Motel One Brussels

10/10 Excellent

"The staff are friendly and helpful. Good selection at breakfast. The location is also very convenient. The room is a bit small but big enough. Air condition is good for the heatwave. It would be good to have a peep hole on the door but it is not a deal breaker."

pentahotel Brussels Airport

"Very satisfied."
