Loved the modern ambiance and the access to restaurants around the hotel. Though the hotel itself…read morehas a restaurant, enjoyed the location of the hotel to the rest of the city. Located close to the city - everything "Brussels" related was just a few blocks away. All of the staff I interacted with were friendly and kind. The room itself was clean and bigger than expected. WiFi was great. Enjoyed the lounge that they had to offer as well. Would recommend.

This is a very cool modern hotel that I enjoyed taking advantage of everything they had to offer…read more Great location within walking distance to all the major attractions of downtown Brussels. It it reasonably priced with a very friendly staff. When you enter this hotel it feels like you are entering a high end club lounge (club music is always playing). It has a very laid back cool young energy vibe......although during the week they are bus loads of retirees visiting for a couple days. Their food is just as good as going to a restaurant downtown (well actually the steak and breakfast buffet was). It is a hip downtown spot so you will see people enjoying the lounge atmosphere but are probably not staying at the hotel. It sort of reminds me of a more reasonable version of the W. I had a great time there.

The room is compact but clean, comfortable and well maintained. The hotel doesn't have a real restaurant but the breakfast buffet is amazing with superb quality pastries, fresh veggies, cheese, yogurt, cereal and eggs. Coffee is phenomenal as anywhere else in Europe. I've always had great experience staying here every time I visit Belgium. I happened to be here during the Brussels terrorists bombing this week (March 2016). My flight was cancelled and it was tough getting out as you can imagined. During the whole process, the staff here was very helpful and accommodating while I had to keep adjusting my stays, and needing help for advise on alternative transportations to leave Belgium. I'm very grateful and will not hesitate to stay here again.

When visiting Belgium, you come mainly for chocolates and beer. Throw in thousands of college…read morestudents and a rich history, and you have Leuven. The La Royale is strategically located right across the street from the main train station, which makes day trips around the country very convenient. It's also a nice 15 minute walk to the historic Oude Markt which boasts a number of bars full of students either done with studies or done trying. Stella Artois owns the town, so make sure you have a few. My favorite place for a cheap cold one is at Den Ouden Tijd, right across the street from the hotel. Enjoy the town, enjoy the hotel, enjoy the food and beer.
