Always stay here and like the convenience and the amenities. Always have a great breakfast. The room this time was incredibly hot and fan provided didn’t make any difference. I was offered a room move but it was late in the evening when I was going out. Will stay again and ask for room with window that can be opened next time.

A Perfect Stay at The Hotel, Brussels – 5 Stars All Around! From the moment we arrived early on the Eurostar, our stay at The Hotel in Brussels was nothing short of spectacular. Despite arriving at 10:30am, we were warmly welcomed and able to check into our stunning corner suite, offering breathtaking views of the city. To kick off our trip, we celebrated with champagne delivered to our room—a moment of pure luxury! For dinner, we visited the iconic Belga Queen for incredible steak and fish. A highlight was being invited to explore the vault below the restaurant—an unforgettable experience that alone is worth the visit. Back at the hotel, the breakfast exceeded all expectations. The variety was fantastic, with healthy fruit options, excellent coffee, and so much more. Each day, we made full use of the gym, sauna, and steam room—where the views from the sauna are simply unbeatable. One evening, we ventured to what we were told is the only casino in Brussels, paired with a rooftop bar above. With cheese fondue and red wine keeping us warm, it was a cozy and memorable experience. The city’s charm was on full display at the Grand Place square, where the architecture left us in awe, and the Christmas markets added a magical touch. To top it all off, we met so many kind and beautiful people, making this trip even more special. This will now become an annual destination for us—thank you, Brussels, and thank you, The Hotel, for an unforgettable stay!
