Walkable to things we wanted to see and do

All the receptionists were friendly and knowledgeable, fluent in English. Breakfast was a great add on. Walking distance to the train station which was what we were looking for. Travelled as a couple. Will definitely add this location and their hotel chain to our hotels list.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel has a nice lobby, and even nicer rooms. The room was clean and the bed was extremely comfy. Although still walkable, the hotel is a bit of a trek walking from main tourist attractions, and the walk is up a very steep hill. Definitely difficult if you're not used to hilly areas, but worth it for the price. One morning, someone opened our door at 8am while we were asleep even though I put the do not disturb sign on the door. Also, they randomly cancelled our booking in the system, so we walk back 40 mins uphill to make sure everything was okay as their phone number didn't work. Luckily everything was fine and the guy at the front desk was very friendly. However, it did kind of disrupt our day, but accidents happen. The area around the hotel is neat with some shopping and good food, but the hotel itself is in what feels like an alley way and wouldn't feel safe at night.

We stayed in Superior Double Room. Although the room is a bit small, it was fairly comfortable with good air conditioning, fridge, and electric kettle. The only shortcoming was that it took 10-15 minutes to have warm water from the shower. Breakfast is very nice. An underground public parking (Interparking Toison D’Or) is available for 15 Euros per 24 hours that is inexpensive rate for Brussels. (Hotel discount rate is not available.) Almost all major touristic sites in Brussels are within walking distance. If the hot water situation would be improved, I would give 10 marks to the Hotel.

I loved my stay here. The location was convenient, a 15 min walk to the main area. The room was beautifully presented and clean and coming into an air-conditioned room was fantastic after a very hot day of sightseeing. The staff were also lovely, I would stay here again in the future.
