    Area around is in the middle of building works so probably didn't look at it's best!

    Lovely hotel, very handy for Brussels Midi station and the Eurostar terminal. Huge room, great bathroom, comfy beds and nice decor. We didn't eat or drink there so can't comment on that but otherwise, a great stay.

    Neighbourhood is the worst location of the city. Homeless and drug addict. Everyone sleeps in the square. Was not possible to walk to the hotel because it’s basically unsafe. Ugliest part is Location . It was no hot water on the 5th floor however we managed it somehow and last night they relocated us to ground floor .

    Hotel is very clean and new Facilities are great nothing to complain I liked minimalistic room Nice female (dark skin beautiful lady )receptionist unfortunately don’t know the name

    The only issue was the sound that carried from the hallway (cleaners talking in the early morning) or from upstairs (people walking), though this didn't bother us much.

    Friendly staff and nice reception area. The room was comfortable and large with a corridor to the ensuite bathroom, which was also large. It was close to the station and reasonably close to the centre.

    The nearby area was very dirty and felt a bit unsafe at night. The room I had was quite small and looked onto a lightwell vertical shaft. But I wasn't staying for long so it was ok.

    The location was perfect to catch the Eurostar very early in the morning. The room was tastefully decorated. Perfect for a quick over-nighter. Staff were helpful when I couldn't turn off my TV.

    If you could buy drinks there (even non-alcoholic) that would be great. It is probably not the prettiest location in terms of the surrounding area, but I felt very comfortable and safe nonetheless and it is no different to parts of other cities in that respect.

    Probably one of the cleanest places I have stayed in, it was immaculate! Many thanks to the housekeeping staff. The breakfast was also superb, such a great choice and a lovely place to sit and enjoy it. Staff were very accommodating and the place is lovely, beautiful decor and a nice oasis.

    It’s missing a few things. For a hotel that looks like this it doesn’t provide slippers and robes. Also there is no mini fridge (my first time experiencing this in a hotel). I requested a queen size bed but they didn’t respond and gave me two single beds room. I didn’t mind it but I would have preferred to have a queen size bed.

    Great ambiance. Clean. Great location. Generously sized rooms.

    The location looks a little bit rough in comparison to the hotel BUT we had two young kids and never felt unsafe. Also very convenient for eurostar and City centre so a great compromise

    Very modern, super clean and a great reception. Room was comfortable if a tiny bit small but had everything we needed.

    Location was good In regards to distance from the train, but overall, the neighborhood was not the highest quality. We were very disappointed until we walked about 15 minutes toward the square and realized the beauty of Brussels. When we arrived, there was a fight that broke out on our walk to the hotel. Of course, not the hotel's fault or location or this incident, but it was unfortunate. We also had a large man sleeping outside of our door when we woke up at 5:00 a.m. to catch the 6:00 a.m. train. He was blocking our way out so I nudged him to wake him up. He was obviously drunk, and I assume he could not get into the room next door but I am not certain.

    The staff was wonderful, they took early luggage to put it in holding since we arrived before check in. It was a relatively quick walk from the train station to the hotel. Very clean and modern for the area.

    We chose this hotel because it was close to Midi (our choice for train convenience.) Although the hotel inside was great, we didn't feel particularly safe when walking around the area (including to and from public transport, especially at night with kids.) Also something to bear in mind is that all through the summer there is a fair right over the road that runs til v late and is v noisy.

    Room was decent sized and staff were fab.

    The location was slightly outside of the historic centre (which was fine) but the immediate surroundings did not feel safe. If staying here you will need an Uber account as I would caution against walking back at night.

    Unfortunately, the location doesn't quite match the feel of the hotel, so there's little option for local food or places to go until you're in the centre of Brussels. A fair was running immediately opposite the hotel, which we could hear till late on the Saturday night, but in fairness, it was quieter earlier on the other evenings.

    The hotel is beautifully finished - a real gem in the area. The room was comfortable and a decent size.

    The bad bit was the area definitely wouldn't recommend it for lone travellers especially females. Lots of people hanging around in square outside and I should imagine when the road fair wasn't there it would be very quiet, I would feel very intimidated walking back to hotel. Also sometimes the noise above the room was loud as you were under the table and chairs which could be noisy when people were banging and scrapping them late but you got used to it, but if you light sleepers might not like it. This is a shame as otherwise it is lovely

    A lovely reception area on arrival. The staff were very helpful and happy to order taxis, get extra towels when needed. We were in room G03 it was down one level wow the room was massive a large double bed and two full size singles and a bathroom I have never seen one so large. It was clean and had everything you could ask for opening windows for fresh air or great Air con, shower was great and plenty of plugs etc. We didn't eat breakfast here but it always smelled nice. Cleaners were lovely, polite and had a laugh sometimes in translation. Nice to have 24/7 reception and at night security as well. If you could walk it wasn't far from the stations otherwise we could call a taxi into town which we did often as I cannot walk far fare around 12€ A lovely restaurant across the road had nice food and we sat outside which was nice on arrival.

    Despite staying more than one night they would not refill the coffee/tea pods. This seemed a little stingy. The area outside is not great (but for Brussels about average).

    Hotel has a well presented lobby, and a sitting area out back to use in the evenings. Room clean with aircon and coffee making facilities.

    Outside the hotel is very sketchy with a dirty park and its sad because if it was cleaner or even maybe a fenced off space it would be more appealing.

    The hotel is great once you're inside and close to the central station as well at the main city center where theres alot to see and do.
