I couldn't have asked for a better stay in Brussels! The rooms were just perfect, offering ample light and complete control with the electrical system. They were incredibly comfortable and spotlessly clean, equipped with everything you could need like a Nespresso machine, automatic screen curtains, and even a fully stocked mini-bar with complimentary water, soft drinks, and beer.

My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious and had a wide, very comfortable bed, although I noticed some hair in the bath and dust on the floor. The Panorama Lounge access was a nice touch, offering a great view of the surroundings. The service was a mix of very kind and welcoming interactions, yet some instances of strangely impolite behavior. The hotel's location was fantastic, surrounded by high-end fashion shops, making it convenient for exploring the city. The dining experience was lovely in general, with the option to enjoy fabulous city views while dining. However, the cost was a bit steep for some offerings.
