Despite the worn carpeting on the public hallways, I would highly recommend staying at the Hilton Brussels Grand Place.

I knocked and turns out the front desk gave me an occupied room. I finally, after another long wait, got a correct room. The room was ok but very loud because apparently the centuries old building next door is being demolished or renovated and the workers are quite industrious, as in they start in early a.m. so bring ear plugs. Very disappointed in this Marriott property as it did not live up to my expectations for the brand.

I really want to go with 3.5 stars, but will round up for the rooftop bar and for the hotel manager…read moreand her assistance. Great location, right near that Grand Place and Brussels Central. The rooms are a bit dated, but our room was very spacious and the bathroom had double sinks and a separate makeup/hairstyling area. Our big problem was the Air Conditioning. It has just been unseasonably hot, but the AC wasn't going below 24.5 (about 76 degrees). When I called down, the first person said to give it time and she would send a fan up. When I called down a few hours later, the person said she and her colleague would change the settings on their end and set the thermostat to 20 (68 degrees). That evening, it's still around 24 degrees, so we opened the windows and put the fan in one of the windows. It helped cool the room down, but also let in tons of noise and light; bad for sleeping. The next day, when none of this was resolved, I asked to speak to a manager and explained to her the situation. She assured me that she would have a technician look at it and monitor to ensure that it is working properly. By the time we returned later, our room was around 22 (71.6; not what I wanted, but much more tolerable). Again, I find it annoying that none of the other people actually worked to help me, but I am glad that someone did so I can get some sleep. It's definitely not a luxury hotel, as far as service goes, but it served our purposes well in Brussels. If you stay here and need something, I suggest going to the manager. And, to the manager(s), I suggest retraining your employees to be honest with customers about what they can and will do.

This rating may partially reflect the misaligned of the hotel experience to my higher expectations of a Design Hotel by Marriott. The staff was friendly. When we arrived a bit early, they offered to watch our stuff while we grabbed lunch. They mentioned a room should be available early as they were not too booked. We returned in about 2 hours just to check if a room might be ready but were prepared to continue to explore if not. They said the room was cleaned and just pending inspection. Foolishly we waited, it ended up being over an hour and we were now checking in after standard check in time. Frustrating but it happens. The room was spacious but had a few minor issues a hotel of this level should not. They bathroom door would not close all the way, and while spacious, the room is still cozy and without a fully shut door, one could hear, well, everything happening in the bathroom. Further, the sink would not drain unless the plug thing in the middle was fully removed from the sink. These issues were reported but we weren't expecting they be resolved before check out (and they weren't). I was on vacation but needed to check in on a few work items. My biggest annoyance was that their wifi was spotty and best and kept dropping in and out. I ended up having to take my laptop out of the hotel to send a few important emails. Disappointing. Location wise, it's great. Easy walk to everything. Tenish minutes to the train station. In the heart of downtown without being subject to all the downtown craziness. As the goal was to minimize time in room, the location made it easy.
Hôtel Métropole

Why 4 stars? Because it was centrally located and certainly unique!…read more --- --- --- This was the final hotel on our 13 days expedition throughout Europe. With our trip coming to an end, we had mixed emotions - it was something we looked forward to for months while planning it, but damn... we were to tired. We walked over 100 miles during our time in various cities, so we were both very excited to get back to a normal life... and Hotel Metropole was our last stop before making that journey. The main lobby area looked much more like a super old school bank, than a hotel. Outside the hotel, there was a ton of construction going on, as they were completely re-doing a very wide road (think small highway-sized.) The person who checked us in provided us with ear buds in case the construction noise disturbed us, but we didn't hear anything from our rooms. Plus, we loved the very centralized location of this hotel - everything was within one mile, which allowed us to walk to everything we had on our itinerary. Our bellhop quickly became my all-time favorite person in his chosen profession. He had our bags and basically went into an all-out sprint to make sure to catch the elevator, but somehow he did this super gracefully. I was wildly impressed. He couldn't have been nicer and more accommodating, as we had a few questions about the area and the room. The room had very high ceilings and a huge bathroom. It wasn't super updated or out-of-date - kind of caught in the middle. The AC was not turned on for our stay on May 9th, which meant that we had to open the window. Not ideal, but this was the norm throughout Europe at this time of year. Breakfast was offered for 9.50 Euros (Express) or 21 Euros (Full) but we didn't have time. We were only here for one night and had a flight to catch in the morning. My biggest complaint was the situation with the shower. When you turned the water on, it came out of both the shower head and the water faucet and there was no way to turn off one or the other. They were either both on or both off. That would have been fine, but the temperature in the water was wildly different. My shower water was warm, but the bath water was scalding. I would have loved the shower water to be hotter, but my feet couldn't handle the bath water to be turned up any more. It had to have been about a 20 degree difference. Other than that, our stay here was great!

And the centraal station is right next door. Our room was big and better than I imagined. Huge bed and bathroom. My only complaint is that the sink smelled like sewage lol.

Made my mornings kinda foul but I was too happy with the overall convenience of the location.

What wasn't so nice is that kids from the floor above us were making a racket until after midnight. We are early sleepers and it took multiple calls to the reception desk to get this issue solved. The flooring appears to be made from wood. This spoiled one day for us as we were both a bit tired the next day due to lack of sleep. The breakfast buffet is really nice. We enjoyed taking relaxing long breakfasts lazily looking out of the large windows at the nearby woods. Feels very peaceful. Pro tips: go early Sunday morning for breakfast buffet as it's very busy by 10.

Having rested on it for a few days, my heart finally decided to go to Brussels. So off to Belgium I go! On May 26th I was browsing online trying to figure out where to stay. I decided to create a list of 'must haves' in order to find me that perfect accommodation: 1) I was on a strict budget 2) Location, location, location. Most of the places I had plan to visit had to be within walking distance 3) Have a great time! Lo and behold I managed to find the perfect accommodation... CITADINES (was on a special deal that included transportation) *booked* As I arrived at Brussels station I immediately took a taxi to the hotel (€24) - I could've saved myself €20 by taking a train as it was only few stops away, but I was too chicken poop - hey, it was my first time going solo! The cabbie was lovely, he was having a conversation with me in French knowing I can't speak a word of it but we got on well. He pointed out the places to check out, and I was delighted to discover that places are only a short walking distance from where I was staying.. score! We finally arrived at the aparthotel in one piece, the cabbie got out and handed me my luggage. I tipped him and he bidded me farewell. As he drove off I turned to look up at the hotel and realised I had a big smile plastered on my face.. my inner self whispered *location location ohhh perfect location* As soon as I stepped in I was immediately greeted by a lovely gentleman who was at the reception desk. The check-in was pretty straight forward and I was then taken to my room all within 10 minutes. As I entered my room, I was incredibly pleased to see that my room had a great view large fountain opposite the hotel. I stayed during the high peak of the summer and the Brazillian world cup. The square was packed full of people, market stalls, bar stalls and a dancing area. As I turned away from the window to observe the room, I was pleased to see that my room was spacious and mordern. Clean not cluttered. On one side of the room is a modern kitchen unit with a cooking stove and utensils. On the other is a built in cupboard that had a safe, an iron board and a closet. The bathroom itself was also clean and decent. Flat screen t.v built into the wall and FREE WIFI! Only downfall is that there is no air conditioning and there was noise coming from outside.. though I didn't mind the salsa music. The lounge area by reception was spacious and they have a complementary self service coffee machine. All in all it was the perfect accommodation and would definitely stay there again!

While I'm all into a clever decorataive theme, what I really like about the hotel is the super comfy beds and bedding, spacious bathrooms, really lovely cafe/bar in the entrance with loads of seating, strong wifi and great selection of drinks and even some free nibbles that you can help yourself to. What the hotel could improve is the air circulation in the rooms, it gets pretty stuffy and the windows don't open wide and there is no central air system. Aside from that, it's a great, stylish, central pied-a-terre!

As far as location, it is very near the metro station and a short walk near the Grand Palace (the center of the city). 4. Basic breakfast (coffee, pastries, and bread) are served in the morning. Cons: 1. Very bare bones accommodations. 2. You are provided a standard key, rather than a card, to enter the hotel (and a card attached to the key to get into your room). I never asked, and it was never told me what the cost of a lost key would be. Presumably, there is a fee if you lose the key. I would ask beforehand. 3. There is no 24 hour concierge. However, I was told on the last day that one can ring the at any time to get someone if you are stuck. 4. The rooms I stayed in (I stayed in two different rooms over separate stays) didn't have shampoo, but one could ask for some. Also, the soap in the shower was not filled up on my last day.

There are also colonnades flanking either side of the big arch, so you can definitely take a walk and spend lots of time in this park.
