A Classic Case of Trying TOO Hard
Advantages: I slept well Disadvantages: Too much style and nothing like enough substance at this price
...like. The hotel was the Vintage Hotel and it was less than a mile away.
She would have paid for a taxi to take me there but my colleague was happy to take me and by doing so, he would be sure to know where the hotel was when he came to collect me in the morning. We struggled a bit with the one way system and it took about 15 minutes before we finally found the hotel. Concerned that I might be about to suffer another 'no room at the inn' incident, ... ...have anti matter, then the Vintage Hotel was the 'Anti-hotel' of the White Hotel. The Vintage is obsessed with the design of a period from around 1950 to late 1970s. That at least is my guess because the theme really wasn't strong enough to tie it down to a narrower range. When my mother first met my stepfather in the 1970s he had psychedelic vinyl wall paper of such horrific impact that I suspect she almost turned on her heel and grabbed her coat. ...

Good location, but slightly tired fittings
Advantages: Excellent location (only 5 minutes walk from the Grand Place), free wireless internet access Disadvantages: Fittings seemed well-used, rooms dark
...spent three nights at the Scandic Grand Place, as we had arranged a block booking for the conference I was organising in Brussels and the Scandic Grand Place was the more moderately priced hotel in which we had got a discounted rate, although I ended up booking through hotelclub.net as it was another EUR 25 a night cheaper, so I was paying EUR 110 per night including breakfast. I was able to check in early - arriving at just before 11am on the Saturday ... ...usually check-in is from 2pm. My room was quite small, with the fittings somewhat on the basic side - we'd been told that the hotel was 4* although I would place it as a 3* - in particular since there was no gym available (currently being renovated). The fittings were somewhat basic - and there was no safe in the room, which is something that I tend to take for granted at a hotel of this class. There was also no ironing board or trouser press, although ...

Superb receptionists pave the way
Advantages: good value, great receptionists, comfy beds and decent breakfast choice Disadvantages: view from bedroom, but who cares? You're there to explore, not sit in your room!
For all potential guests here be aware that there are mixed reviews about this place on other sites. Having read many of them I can honestly say that they were accurate on the part of good reviews, and petty on the part of the negative reviews. Each to their own experience though.
I took my fiancee to this hotel for a Valentine's weekend break, and we thouroughly enjoyed our 3 days in Brussels. Starting with the initial feel of the place we felt ... ...cheap rate with breakfast deal. We chose well! Upon our arrival late on a Friday evening we were greeted by 2 very pleasant young ladies on reception who were most helpful, and English speaking for those of us lacking the skill or inclination to converse in either native French or Flemish tongues.
As it was a 'special' deal, I hadn't expected a great room, but again pleasantly surprised by a decent sized room with twin bed pushed together and very ...

Located in the heart of Brussels
Advantages: Location, cleanliness, food, size of rooms! Disadvantages: Gym is very hot
...and 3 nights at the novotel off grand place. The main train station in Brussels is literally 2 minutes walk from the hotel. If you exit the hotel from the breakfast room there is another underground entrance for the train station there so it really is conveniently located for travel to, from & around Brussels.
We stayed in a lovely room on the 4th floor. The rooms are very spacious with 2 single beds pushed together. There is a separate room for ... ...sink. There is a flat screen tele with many channels including bbc news, bbc1, music channels aswell as other foreign channels. There is a wardrobe in the room when you walk in and plenty of hangers to hang your clothes up. There is a safe in the room which is free of charge as you just use your room key card to open & lock it. The room is claned daily and you are given the standard shampoo, moisturiser, shoe kit, soaps etc. On the third floor there ...

Hostel in Brussels
Advantages: Free internet, nice room, cheap Disadvantages: Brussels is a bit dull
We stayed in this hostel whilst in Beligum over the weekend. We booked a double private ensuite bathroom room for €90 from the Hostelworld.com website. The hostel was more then adequate. The room was a nice big room and the bathroom was also a reasonable size. The Beds were comfortable. The hostel is loctated within a five minute walk from the main metro line through the citry and is very easy to locate as it had a big sign ouside it. The hostel ... ...in the middle of it
The hostel was very secure. Each person got a key card for thier visit and the key card only allowed access to certain parts of the building. Which gave you an extra feeling of been able to leave your stuff around without fear of it going missing. The room also offered 2 lockers, but sadly one in our room was broken.
The hostel offered a very good breakfest to help us on our way for our travels ahead with a wide variety of cheeses, ...
