Hôtel Van Belle

The relatively low rate, the rich breakfast buffet and the flexibility of the reception stuff when I asked to keep the room till early afternoon on the departure day without extra charge

The hotel's location was very good, both in terms of walking distance to the main attractions of Brussels and in terms of public transport access - the hotel is very close to a subway station.

While the reception was usually manned with friendly and helpfull staff, there was one person who was less than friendly and seemed to be bothered by any request from the guests. However, the biggest problem of the hotel are the very thin walls. You end up hearing not only what happens in the hallway, but also what goes on in the rooms next to yours. Thus, stay away from this hotel if you need a good night sleep to, e.g., perform well at a business meeting the next morning.

Walking distance of Grand Place

Breakfast, rooms, hotel area, pics deceiving

Breakfast was pretty bad. Coffee worst in the world.

stay were really friendly and helpful. And just being a 6 minute walk from the major tourist attraction "Grand Place" was excellent.

Bathroom, didn't look too clean. Locks on room doors old fashioned and I didnt trust them.
