Donceel Vacations from ￥197,561

This is more like a hostel than a hotel, with bunk beds for the whole family and communal toilets and a shower for the whole floor. Luckily, each room at least had its own sink so we could brush and wash our hands. Stairs were steep, narrow, and curved, thus inaccessible for anyone needing wider accommodations. Immersive location in the Red Light District and down the street from the main train station.

Brand new property. Amenities were fabulous. The guest experience manager Ismael went above and beyond for us. All staff were friendly and very willing to help any minute

The hotel itself was perfect, especially the family room (we had a room for 5) which was spacious and clean. The staff were lovely. It was a 5 minute walk to the Midi train station and 15-20 minute walk to the Grand-Place, which was also very convenient. However, the area in which the hotel is situated is very dirty, with piles of trash in the streets. There was also quite a bit of loud construction in the area. We would not have felt safe walking back to the hotel at night in this area (and were specifically advised not to), which did limit our evening plans.

This old, 90th-style flat. Everything present from this time, significantly outdated. Stuff not very helpful. I reported that the TV and entrance hallway lights do not work. In 4 days, nobody will come to fix these. The Small fridge did not work at all, and another one, bigger, quickly freezes all your stuff. And no chance to adjust.
