Contrary to most of its Brussels counterparts, the Novotel is not housed in an old building... Opened in 1999, it was built around one of the city's architectural features: the Black Tower, a protected rampart dating back to the Middle Ages. However, although the view of the tower from inside the hotel make it somewhat original, the hotel's interior decor follows the standard classic Novotel concept found all over the globe. It is the ideal place for those who don't like surprises!

This is a central hotel which is well located for exploring the historical centre without having to walk too much. It is just a 5-minute walk from your room at the Grand-Place, past some of Brussels most significant buildings, such as the A La Mort Subite cafe-bar, the Galeries Saint-Hubert and the chocolate-maker Neuhaus (the inventor of praline). The rooms are not the most spacious, but children do stay free of charge in their parents' room. Another advantage: lunch for around £9.20, for a light bite with friends or to recover from an overindulgence of chips and chocolate!

Ibis Brussels Sainte-Catherine is chosen for its (relative) proximity to Grand Place and its unbeatable prices compared to other hotels situated near Grand Place. You will happily go back there, even if it's just for the district that it's in: The Sainte-Catherine district to be precise, with its market, its small shops, its village atmosphere, its fashionable bars and restaurants. Provided that you're looking for a place where you can go out and party, and that you are not too worried about the size of the rooms or the soundproofing of the building.

A hotel right in the centre of the city (Grand Place is 164 ft away, and there is a view of the city hall's belfry from some of the rooms), with the comfort of the hotel chain Ibis (the essentials with no superfluous features and no bad surprises either), a breakfast buffet (which you can have out on the terrace in the summer) for a very reasonable price. A hotel to be picked without hesitation, if you can do without the decoration, the gym and the freshly squeezed juice for breakfast.

One of the top choices for a family break in the historic centre of Brussels, without blowing your budget, but without losing out on the quality either. The breakfast buffet is very copious, the bedrooms are comfortable (although they do not offer a great amount of space for 4 people), the design is stylish and contemporary (without being a "boutique-hotel" or a "design-hotel"), the Grand Place (central market square) is a 5 minute walk from the hotel. You can enjoy Brussels with your offspring!

Everyone is entitled to a Plaza, even Brussels! This one is not to be mistaken for the Plazas of Madrid, Paris, or Djerba... Located in the northern part of the city centre, the Brussels version is an institution in the Belgian capital city. In addition to its 5 stars, it boasts impeccable service, an elegant decor, and state-of-the-art amenities, not to mention a true gem: an old theatre that was used as a cinema and that has since been converted into a conference room.

A chic new hotel which will be particularly appreciated by trendy hotel enthusiasts: Gregorian chant is played in the lift, the carpet in the bedrooms features a monastic motif and part of the cloister has been preserved in the courtyard. This is because The Dominican Brussels is housed in a former monastery. It provides comfortable accommodation, rather good food and above all, wine by the glass and tapas to nibble on. In the Lounge Bar, 100m from the Grand-Place, you can continue the evening.
