The hotel offers spacious rooms, but they are pretty outdated. Despite being available in the middle of Christmas Market season, the small rooms with very tiny washrooms were a downside. On the bright side, the facilities were good.

The hotel is not ideally located for tourist attractions, but the presence of many scooters out front made it easier to move around. It's in a quiet area with some comfort, and you can enjoy nice views of the city. The walkable location is a plus for exploring.
Dining

The dining at the hotel was average at best. It was a bit expensive, and the parking fee of $17 per night was not budget-friendly. The dining area in the basement felt cramped, and upon arrival, it was a hassle to find a table and get service for drinks.

The hotel facilities were decent, but nothing exceptional stood out. It would benefit from some improvements to enhance the overall experience.

My stay at the hotel was truly a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were amazing, very large, and comfortable, although they did have a slight smell of smoke despite the no smoking policy. The service was top-notch, with extremely helpful staff who accommodated us in English and Dutch. The location was not ideal for sightseeing but great for business trips or proximity to St Luc hospital. The dining experience was good but a bit overpriced, and the breakfast could use some improvement. Overall, a decent stay with some room for enhancement.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. Although the rooms were properly heated and cozy, the lack of good acoustic shielding made it quite loud at night, and I ended up with two little beds instead of one large one as requested. The service was kind overall, but it took a while for staff to answer the phone. The location, while convenient with a bus stop directly to the city center, felt a bit far and not very safe. The dining options were a mix of pros and cons, with changing daily offerings but tinned fruit instead of fresh ones. Despite these issues, the facilities were decent and met my basic needs.

My stay at the hotel was quite comfortable overall. The rooms, though a bit old-fashioned, were spacious and functional, which suited my short stay perfectly. The service, while friendly and multilingual, had a slight hiccup with noise disturbances that affected our family. The location was convenient for those with a car but not ideal for sightseeing in Brussels. The dining options were satisfactory in taste but lacked warmth and had some pricing issues. The facilities were average, nothing extraordinary.

The hotel is positioned right above the entrance, offering excellent quality rooms with a 'conservatory' window that creates a bright and spacious feel. The rooms are pleasant, very clean, and comfortable. The service is genuinely friendly and helpful, attending to all needs promptly. The location is ideal for work in Wolwe, set in a quiet neighborhood with convenient transportation options nearby. Although the dining is good, there's room for improvement, especially in providing freshly made coffee. The hotel features include great facilities to enhance the stay.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, although the room was small with only two single beds. The location was convenient, just around the corner. The service was exceptional with help accessing the underground car park and even cooking a fried egg when the scrambled eggs were unavailable. The dining options were limited, but the hot waffles were a nice touch.

The hotel has its ups and downs. The rooms, equipped with a large bed, sofa, and a clean bathroom, were a bit gloomy. The service was helpful, with a convenient bus stop outside, but missed some details in the room. The location is good but a bit far from central Brussels. The dining experience was nice, but not the best for a 4-star hotel.
