The hotel offers 142 spacious bedrooms (Classic and Executive), a restaurant « Le Chalet d'Odin », a bar « Stefany's », conference and banqueting rooms, a fitness centre and an underground parking.

A great base for exploring Brussels

Advantages: Great location, comfortable rooms, excellent food
Disadvantages: Expensive if not arranged as part of a package

I recently spent a weekend at this hotel on a budget break I'd arranged through lastminute.com. I must say I was incredibly impressed by the standard of the hotel for something that I had paid so little for. The location is perfect. The hotel is situated on Place de Grande Sablon - home of the famous Sablon antique market at the weekends. The architecture of the surrounding area makes this an Art Nouveau lover's paradise. Bars and restaurants are ...
...galleries are less than a five minute walk away and the Grande Place is not much further. The marbled entrance lobby to the hotel is flanked by opulent antique shops that convey a sense of grandeur as you enter the building. Reception staff were very helpful. Our room was spacious and tastefully decorated. The beds were very comfortable and the tv showed stations from all across Europe (including BBC1 and BBC2). I was very impressed with the spacious ...

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 ...

Five star luxury in the hear of Brussels

Advantages: Location, size, quality service and comfort
Disadvantages: Some will not like the limited facilities

...fortunate enough to stay at Le Meridien, in Brussels a few weeks back after winning a competition. It was a novel situation all round as I would not normally be able to afford to stay at this quite exclusive establishment on my travel and subsistence budget and, even if I were I would be too busy to appreciate my surroundings. I do visit Brussels a lot for work and have stayed in many hotels (I reviewed the Welcome Hotel a while back and this remains ...
...while. Ownership The Le Meridien chain is managed by the US based Starwood Group. This also includes the Sheraton, Westin and St Regis chains amongst others. They operate 888 hotels worldwide, 499 are managed and the balance are franchised. The link to the Le Meridien, in Brussels is through the Starwood web site. This is the best link for a full list of all the services available and I am not duplicating such lists in my reviews as this is not ...
