5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 May 2012

Located in the heart of Brussels, this hotel turned out to be a hidden diamond. The price of 60 euro per night is like a budget hotel, but the hotel is too good for this price. The windows in the rooms open onto busy streets of Brussels downtown. But the friendly front office staff and the facilities in the rooms... More

The hotel is in a Art Deco area of Brussels, well connected to the city centre by tram 92 (there are also buses stopping nearby at the Ma Campagne stop). It is very pleasant to walk around the area, lots of shops of every kind in the Chaussée de Waterloo nearby, lots of cafès too. The room I stayed in... More

Chose this hotel due to the location. One of the first things you probably have to consider is parking. You have to pay extra, and it involves going down a steep narrow slope. Anything bigger than a VW Golf probably wouldn’t fit. The room was a good size, including the bathroom. The shower took a long time for the water... More

I was pleasantly surprised by the Forum (which is what taxi drivers seem to know the name by rather than its full title). It's very modern, with lots of extras that I didn't expect at this price range (dressing gowns & slippers, for example). The top floor had a very spacious balcony, which would have been fantastic in the summer.... More

Spent a couple of nights here with a group of 25. I shared a room with another member - I suppose it was a twin room, but the beds were pushed together with one cover as if it was a double. We managed to push them apart a little. Bathroom stocked with usual supplies plus bidet. I needed an extra... More

Located a bit south of the older section of Brussels this hotel was a good match for me and my wife. You'll have a long walk to downtown or a short tram ride. There is a tram stop quite near the hotel. The room was small but that is something you need to get used to as an American visiting... More

We spend 2 nights in this hotel, and liked the location very much. It's in a hip neighbourhood with cool cafes, restaurants and shops just around the corner. It's a few tram stops from the city entre. The hotel itself is not hip though, but the rooms are clean, well appointed and have good bathrooms. For 65 euros, we couldn't... More

Dear Guest, I have been aware about what happened during your stay. Unfortunately no parking space was booked, as we never book or reserve our parking places. Nevertheless and after getting inside the parking without permission of our staff, you parked in a permanent rented space clearly marked by sings and different floor color. The man you thought worked in... More
