Great location, good restaurants etc around Ixelles but also right next to the centre, with a metro station direct to the Eurostar nearby. Reception were friendly. Water and coffee available in the lobby the whole time. Would stay there again.
I loved my stay here. The location was convenient, a 15 min walk to the main area. The room was beautifully presented and clean and coming into an air-conditioned room was fantastic after a very hot day of sightseeing. The staff were also lovely, I would stay here again in the future.
Couldn’t fault this hotel. We had a wonderful stay in a family room. Very comfortable, great selection for breakfast, helpful reception staff. We would definitely visit again.
This was difficult to rate
The breakfast was great
The location is good
The staff are nice
The price was very high the first day because of some surge pricing in Brussels- rest of the days were acceptable
The issues
The wifi is open just like any restaurant so you will need VPN software - they have a secure wifi for the staff and in took 3 days to advise me that I would not get access to it
There was a wifi repeater in room 114 behind the TV. It should have been in a hallway or elsewhere
There was some water damage on the walls
Bathtub was too high and hard to get into.
Glass door to the tub could only open one way because the tub was too high
Room configuration was strange and too narrow -maybe that is why we got our room early
Get a VPN before you travel and book early. Brussels seems to get full quickly
Electronics were hanging our, shower was not cleaned and there was reinforcement right in the middle of the room which made it super hard to use. Toilet was in a closet size room and shower was separate. Also breakfast was extremely low quality
Was a last minute booking following a mishap in the location of our planned stay. Hotel was very welcoming in all regards. Breakfast was great and location was perfect for getting around the city.
Very happy with this motel. Staff were fabulous. Special mention to Joseph. Room very clean. Extremely comfy bed and modern bathroom. Breakfast was also very good ..... lots of choice. Would definitely stay again.
Had a very comfortable stay. Quiet and clean. The family room was 2 ajoined rooms and I appreciated that there were separate beds for my kids. Only problem was the walk in shower didn't drain well and flooded the bathroom and hall after less than 5 minutes. Apprently this is a common problem and the staff just gave us extra towels to clean up the water that overflowed.
Great location; very helpful staff; room
was modern

Good Place to Stay
It's a hotel under construction, lots of dust and tons of art work all over the place, but not hung up. A very kind staff and the breakfast was next level! Good and easy location! Easy access to everything!
