5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 June 2013 NEW

A little gem tucked away on a quiet street only a few steps away from the main center of attractions in Antwerp - the Grote Markt. The hotel is small, friendly and cozy. The atmosphere is welcoming, with decanters of Port and Sherry on the reception desk - a nice touch on a cold, drizzly afternoon after a long journey!... More

Very good service here by staff although minimal. Standard adequate breakfast buffet. Location excellent for the centre. Warm room overlooking "garden!". Clean quiet and comfortable room and bed. All is walkable in old city area. Taxi fare 20 euros to airport about 20 mins away

We were underwhelmed by the Hotel Rubens - Grote Markt. When we arrived, the pictures posted online where not a good representation of the hotel. The lobby has been updated, but the rooms were extremely dated. The furniture and decor were in need of a facelift and the bathroom needed some help. We opted for a room with a shower,... More

I've stayed here 3 or 4 times and it is without doubt my favourite hotel in Antwerp. It's slap-bang in the middle of the old town, about 100 metres from the Grote Markt. The rooms are well-appointed, the beds extremely comfortable, the staff attentive and polite, the prices moderate. Yes, there are more luxurious hotels in Antwerp, but why stay... More

This hotel makes an ideal base for those wishing to visit the main sites in Antwerp. Close to the magnificent cathedral and impressive town square the rooms are clean, comfortable and quiet. No bar, very few staff, but the young man at reception was good at giving directions and made excellent restaurant recommendations. If I visit Antwerp again I would... More

Right by the Grote Markt, this hotel is in a great location (though it takes a little time to find it by car!) The hotel looks welcoming from the outside and the reception,lobby and common areas are nicely put together. In fact, everything is promising and the staff charming but the rooms do not match this initial promise, especially the... More

Every time we go to Antwerp, we return to Hotel Rubens. Good location, value for money, nice breakfast. Need I say more? Yes, just one thing to complain about: the wifi. For one thing, it comes at a price. While on the hotel website wifi is mentioned as one of the amenities of the rooms, it turns out that this... More

Only stayed one night. Nice location in the historic area. It is about a 20 minute walk from the train station. The room was clean and the staff courteous. I thoroughly enjoyed the tea shop directly across the hotel. Had a wonderful lunch and breakfast there. The only thing I did not like was the price, 120 Euros seemed a... More

Dear sir, Thank you for your kind words. it is always good to receive a kind review since it incites us to keep our efforts up. As for the comments about the price, I can only imagine that this is because of the currency exchange USD-EURO, which is at the moment 30% more for you. Since we are in Europe,... More

In the past I have always stayed at the nearby Hilton, but they were full so our office booked this place. The location is perfect, right in the center of everything.

The Rubens is close to the historical centre of Antwerp with most of the tourism attractions a short walk away. Our room was a decent size, overlooking a quiet garden area. The large bathroom had full-sized bath and shower, and was separate from the WC. One shortcoming was that there only was one comfortable chair in a room with a... More
