10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean with nice decor as was Reception. In Reception there was a water machine and a tea/coffee machine which was great. The hotel was central in the town - great location. Lots of shops and beautiful buildings. It was about half an hour walk to the main station (went to Bruges for the day from here) we enjoyed the walk as crossed many canals, but you could take a bus/tram to the station. Would definitely stay here again."

"This was my first time to Brussels. I chose this hotel for its very convenient location right above Gare du Midi. This allowed me easy access to the trains, especially the Eurostar. The view from my room, however, was not great as I had a wall view. The room, however, was very comfortable and not too big. Could’ve been bigger. I also liked how I could get to early morning bus service to CRL Airport without fail. Would recommend."

8/10 Good
"We had a very pleasant stay at the hotel, and overall everything was good. The room was comfortable, the service was nice, and we enjoyed our stay. The only area that could be improved is the breakfast. We stayed for 6 days, and unfortunately, the food selection was almost the same every day. We would have appreciated more variety and some changes in the daily options, especially for guests staying for several nights. Overall, we had a good experience and would consider staying again, but having a more varied breakfast menu would definitely make the stay even better."
