Stanhope Hotel Brussels by Thon Hotels

Make your own Belgian waffles at breakfast -- hard to beat. Hotel with character and history, but with modern amenities and upgrades. Location second to none for EU business.

Old school fitness room. Good for a jogger or biker, not so great for current fitness trends, with little space to do a workout. No complimentary water, and drinking a bottle of still water from your room's fridge will cost you EUR 5.

Suite had recently been refurbished and included excellent facilities. It was a quieter room overlooking the rear of the hotel which I prefer. Staff at check in and out are always friendly, welcoming me back and efficient.

My usual complaint is the cost of the breakfast, hence I take breakfast outside the hotel.

The staff were nice and kind. Breakfast was really too good to stop eating, that was why many guests tend to stay long, maybe.

Using a cab or public transport is recommended for city trotters. Grand place was in walking distance "horizontally", but it's a bit too hard to walk up through the hilly area to the hotel.

Excellent breakfast with an attentive staff, but service ends PROMPTLY at 10 on weekdays. This is an excellent alternative to the sterile cookie cutter big chain hotels! Would definitely return.

Nothing

Location: Excellent. Close to the Luxembourg train/Bus station. Staff: Outstanding, courteous, extremely helpful, friendly. Hotel: Exceeding my expectations. Quiet. The lounge, lobby, courtyard were very nice and comfortable to sit and relax and have a conversation and/or beverage. Great Job Thon Hotels!

- service - friendly staff - nice room
