Overall OK stay at this hotel. I booked the place via American Express FHR program. Great benefits. The room was nice but due to traffic/ambulance noise, I did not get much rest. The room was also extremely hot (sauna like) when we arrived so we had to open the window to get some air. Bathroom is nice and comfortable with both a tub and shower and heated floor, which was a nice touch. Great amenities in the room. The hotel is outside of the inner ring road of Brussels, so it’s quite a walk to the city center (take an Uber). Check in and check were easy and the breakfast buffet was top notch.
