Steigenberger Icon Wiltcher's
Nice hotel and good location but a bit dated with uncomfortable bed and no room service after midnight which is absurd for a hotel of this size and stature. Walls also paper thin so you can hear your neighbors talking or crying etc. staff doesn’t ask how your stay was on departure

Warwick Grand-Place Brussels
Very clean, quiet. Staff were very friendly. Breakfast was very busy ( at the weekend ) and very little for vegans. We had a bottle of red wine gratis but we both drink white wine and couldn't exchange. Perfect location between Grand Place and the Royal Palace
