10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for 5 nights, a very central location. The interior of the hotel is unique and a lot of work and artistic design has gone into it. Very unusual. Close to one of the main stations too. The staff and owner were friendly. No shortage of eating places right outside the hotel. A great base to explore Brussels, and nearby cities of ghent and Bruge."
