The hotel is situated in a perfect location, in the heart of the city but tucked away on a quiet side street. The rooms are chic, cozy, and bright, although not the best option if you're tall. The service is excellent, and the dining experience offers a continental selection with room for improvement. The location is a big plus for this hotel, making exploration easy without needing public transport.

The hotel is ideally located in the center of Brussels, making it convenient for various activities. The rooms are beautifully decorated, but perhaps too opulent for some tastes.

I stayed in a room on the top floor right under the roof tiles, which unfortunately didn't have air conditioning. The room was recently renovated with very good amenities, soundproof windows, and good heating. However, the overall experience fell below my expectations.

My stay at the hotel was simply delightful. The rooms are bright, combining art-deco and modern styles, catering to all tastes. Our room was huge, offering ample space for a comfortable stay. The location is perfect, close to major landmarks and just a 10-minute walk from the beautiful Grand Place. However, being next to a less appealing shopping street was a minor drawback.
