Artistic World
Staying at Artistic World Hotel was an excellent experience from start to finish. The room had everything I needed—shower gel, toiletries, and even a shared kitchen where I could brew tea and coffee whenever I wanted. It’s a nice touch for travelers who prefer a bit of independence. The other guests were respectful and quiet, so I never felt disturbed during my two-night stay. The host reached out beforehand, which made me feel welcome and reassured. Cleanliness was top-notch throughout the entire visit—everything sparkled and felt fresh. With its great location in Brussels and thoughtful amenities, this place truly delivers on comfort and convenience. I’d highly recommend it and will definitely come back.
EuroCitadin
I've stayed in Madrid, Lisbon, and Berlin before, but this EuroCitadin in Brussels truly stands out. Each room has its own unique charm, and the cleanliness and comfort are top-notch—exactly what you'd want from a great stay. Everything you need is right there: modern amenities, cozy furnishings, and a welcoming atmosphere. The location is fantastic—just a short walk to trams and buses, and all essentials like restaurants, shops, and supermarkets are within minutes. It’s so convenient for exploring the city on foot or by public transport. I was impressed by how well thought-out every detail is. This isn’t just a place to sleep—it’s a home away from home. Definitely coming back, and I’d recommend it to anyone visiting Brussels.
Axl Flathotel
Stayed here twice with a group of college friends last year, and it was an excellent choice. The location is perfect for getting around Brussels—just steps from the metro and surrounded by fantastic restaurants, cafes, and local shops. The rooms are spacious, modern, and well-equipped with everything we needed. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and welcoming—they were friendly, professional, and always ready to help. Cleanliness and attention to detail stood out throughout. If you're looking for a convenient, stylish, and well-run place to stay in Brussels, this is definitely a top pick. Highly recommend for travelers who value both comfort and great access.
Madeleine Budget Rooms Grand Place
Returned to The Madeleine Budget Rooms Grand Place after several years and was thrilled to find it as exceptional as ever. The staff truly sets a new standard for hospitality—warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. From the moment you walk in, the front desk creates an inviting atmosphere that sets the tone for your entire stay. The bar and restaurant offerings are surprisingly delicious and well-crafted, making every meal a highlight. Attention to detail is clear in everything—from room cleanliness to daily amenities. A special shoutout to Alexandra Leys in guest experience: her energy, kindness, and proactive support made our visit unforgettable. This isn’t just a budget hotel—it’s a gem hidden in the heart of Brussels. Perfect location, excellent value, and service that feels personal. I’ll definitely be back.
Game of Rooms
I stayed here for one night, and overall it was just average—definitely not worth more than a 1-2 night visit. The main plus is the price, which feels reasonable for Brussels, and the location is convenient: only a 15 to 20-minute walk from the Grand Place, making it easy to explore on foot. However, there were several drawbacks. Upon arrival, we waited about 15 minutes at reception before someone showed up—had to call to get attention. The bathroom is separated from the bedroom by just a thin plastic partition, which offers little privacy. Also, no hand soap was provided, and despite checking in as two guests, we were given only one set of towels—very inconvenient. Another issue is the noise: the hotel sits in a very busy area, so street sounds and traffic continued late into the night, making it hard to sleep peacefully. If you're looking for a quick, budget-friendly stopover with minimal expectations, this might work. But if comfort, quiet, and good service matter to you, you’ll likely be disappointed.
Best Hotel
My husband and I stayed at the hotel for one night on March 17th, 2025, and had a very positive experience overall. The check-in process was smooth, and we were greeted by a friendly young male front desk staff member and the current owner, both of whom were attentive and helpful. Our room was clean and comfortable, with enough space for our needs—nothing fancy, but perfectly functional. While there are a few areas of the property that could use some attention, it didn’t take away from our enjoyment. The location is excellent—just a five-minute walk to Grand Place, with plenty of restaurants and cafes along the way, making dining out super convenient. The hotel is currently undergoing a gradual renovation, which explains some minor imperfections, but it’s clear they’re investing in improving the guest experience. I’d definitely stay here again without hesitation, especially given the great value and central spot.
Villa Sablon
The location is excellent—very convenient for public transit and close to everything we wanted to explore. Unfortunately, that’s where the positives end. From the moment we arrived, things went downhill. We couldn’t get into our room because it was locked with no staff available at the front desk. After multiple attempts to reach someone by phone (despite their email saying 'call us anytime'), we were only able to communicate via WhatsApp. When we finally got a response, we were told to use another room instead—though that one wasn’t even ready. The room we were supposed to stay in hadn’t been cleaned at all when we arrived at 8 PM; there were still dirty linens and towels left behind from a previous guest. We had to wait until 10:30 PM before housekeeping showed up. We reached out several times via text asking for a partial refund, but received no reply. It felt like our concerns were completely ignored. While the location is a strong point, the lack of on-site support, poor communication, and unprofessional handling made this experience extremely frustrating. I wouldn’t recommend staying here and would not return.
Apart Hotel Brussels Midi
Staying at Apart Hotel Brussels Midi was a mixed experience, but overall it worked well for our short trip. The check-in was smooth and staff spoke English clearly—no issues there. The apartment came with a full kitchen including a microwave, standard-sized oven, and a washing machine—great for self-catering. However, no detergent was provided, which was surprising since we’d been traveling across Europe for two months and laundry access was a must. Still, the cooking facilities were more than sufficient for a quick breakfast or light meal. The room itself—Room 2, the Sydney Room on the second floor—was bright and cheerful with its fuchsia pink walls, spacious at 50 sqm, and had a small but functional elevator, which was essential with our large suitcases. It’s just a 5–10 minute walk to Brussels Midi Train Station, but the route isn’t ideal—uneven pavement, tram tracks, deep gutters, lots of people loitering around, and general litter made pushing luggage tough. Walking into the city center takes about 15–25 minutes, which is manageable if you’re not in a rush. That said, it’s a decent base for day trips to Bruges, Ghent, Luxembourg, or Amsterdam via train. Hot water temperature and pressure were excellent, lighting was bright and well-placed, and the towels were fresh and replaced once during our five-night stay. A convenient corner store is just 150 meters away, and a Lidl is about 1.2 km—both easy to reach. Wi-Fi was fast and reliable in the room. Overall, the value felt reasonable after considering all factors. On the downside, the area around the hotel has a slightly run-down feel, and I wouldn’t recommend walking around late at night. There are quite a few people experiencing hardship hanging near the station—common near major train hubs in Europe, but still noticeable. Dining options nearby are limited, especially Western-style evening meals. However, the Pullman Hotel’s restaurant and its ground-floor bar are solid choices, as is La Ruche Halal Restaurant—though it gets packed quickly, so arrive early or book ahead. The subway construction project between the station and the hotel seems to be dragging on forever—no clear end date in sight. Noise pollution from locals and car horns was constant, especially if you opened a window. Unfortunately, the ceiling fan didn’t work, and the bathroom towel rail heater wasn’t functioning in mid-March. The advertised queen bed was actually a standard double—slightly misleading. While there’s a coffee pod machine with five pods included, the sign says each pod costs €0.50. Was this a mistake? Were those five free, or will future pods cost extra? It raises questions about transparency. No large drinking mugs were provided, and there’s no in-room safe. Early luggage drop-off isn’t available either—check-in starts at 3 PM. Lastly, hand soap, instant coffee, and tea bags were very low and never replenished during our stay. All in all, this place works best for travelers focused on transit convenience and budget-friendly stays. If you prioritize quiet, privacy, or premium amenities, you might want to look elsewhere.
Hotel Orts
I've been visiting Brussels regularly for years, and while there are several solid hotels in the city, Hotel Orts stands out as truly exceptional. From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond—friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful. The room was spotless, spacious, and well-designed with modern touches that made it feel like home. Free Wi-Fi was a welcome bonus, offering fast and reliable connectivity throughout my stay. The dining experience was outstanding—the food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. I wish I’d discovered this gem sooner. It’s now my top choice whenever I’m in Brussels, and I won’t even consider staying anywhere else. If you’re looking for a memorable, high-quality hotel in the heart of the city, Hotel Orts is absolutely the one to book.
Hotel Albergo
Staying at Hotel Albergo in Brussels was an absolute delight. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived—offering help with luggage and sharing great local restaurant tips. The location is perfect: just a short metro ride to the city center, surrounded by cozy cafes and vibrant street food options. The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable, with a cozy bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. It’s rare to find such warmth and value in a hotel, but this one truly delivers. I’d happily return and recommend it to anyone visiting Brussels.
Hotel Manos Premier
This stay at Hotel Manos Premier was an absolute delight! The hotel is beautifully designed with elegant rooms and a stunning dining area that truly elevates the experience. Everything was spotless, and its central location made exploring Brussels effortless—just a short walk or quick metro ride to all major attractions. The spa was nothing short of magical, offering a serene retreat that felt like stepping into a storybook oasis. It’s rare to find such a perfect balance of luxury, comfort, and value. The price-to-quality ratio is outstanding—this place deserves every bit of praise. I’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Brussels.
Yadoya Hotel
The Yadoya Hotel offers an unbeatable location in Brussels—just a short walk from major attractions and public transit. My room was spotless, spacious, and featured a lovely view of the city streets. The staff were welcoming and helpful throughout my stay. From the moment I arrived to the time I checked out, everything felt comfortable and thoughtfully arranged. It’s rare to find such a pleasant, stress-free experience in a busy city—this place truly stands out. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Brussels.
