This hotel was disgusting. I visibly saw bed bugs on the beds. The area outside is not safe and you are told not to walk around at night. Will never stay anywhere near here again and I recommend you don’t either.

Close to Brussels South railway station
The hotel is somewhat old, but reasonably clean. Maintenance was at least on par if not better as comparable locations in Brussels. If you are afraid of the smallest trace of mould, this place is not for you. The location is somewhat noisy, but that's what you get just a 5 minutes walk from the biggest railway station. Not a top hotel, but reasonable value for the money. I would go there again if I needed accommodation close to metro and railway.
Just a nasty place and in an area that felt unsafe for me traveling alone. Could barely sleep due to someone screaming upstairs at all times in the night 2/2 nights. Got a nasty bug bite while sleeping.
I booked for a double bed and expected a bed big enough to hold us as a couple but bed was too small. Hotel provided only 3 small pillows.
Breakfast was always a repeat of previous day food. No variety and not ready to vary.
There was no fridge, pressing iron in the room. The safe was faulty and never worked till we left.
Found only one small bottle of water in the room meant for two. Water was never replenished for the entire 4 days spent at the hotel.
The carpets in the hotel was kind of dirty and stuffy. Gave me a cold till I left.
Several times I had to tell them not to make-up my room yet the cleaners went in to clean.
Considering the condition of the hotel, I will score them as a one star hotel yet was very expensive, paying over €210 a night. Payment was non-refundable which saved them, otherwise I would have canceled the booking quickly.
WiFi was very poor - very weak signal.
There was no restaurant to cater for lunch or diner.

Well-placed for Trains and Metro.
Good location - near the Central Station (Metro Lemonnier is actually a bit closer and less hassle). Traffic noise a bit disturbing in the mornings.
Good Reception and Buffet Breakfast.
We booked this room at the last minute as we are unhappy with our stay in another small hotel. We checked in at 10.30pm and was given a free upgrade to a family room. The hotel staff are kind and friendly. Room is big and clean too. Comfortable bed and pillows. Ideal location which is a stone throw to the main station.
The hotel was very convenient for the Eurostar terminal. It was a bit of a faded glory. Everything was clean but a bit old. Reception very friendly and helpful. Did exactly what we needed, beds for th night and an early start.
There was NO heat in our room.
It was freezing cold outside.
They brought up a small space heater,
but we checked the next day and there
was no heat anywhere in the hotel.
—not even in the hallways!
Also, the floors creaked so loudly and
violently that we thought there might
be an earthquake— it felt like the floor
was going to cave in.

Hotel rooms stink and ful off bed bug could't sleep peachfully. the location is very good everything is close by train underground tram eurostar full of shops. rooms are too cold . heaters don't work i would not recomend this hotel to anyone but the staff are friendly
Staff very friendly and efficient. Pay at hotel at check in. Met our needs of close proximity (maybe 5 min walk) to the train station to catch an International train to Paris. Near Arabic neighborhood. Great food options. Close to Mannekin de pis, and chocolate shops. Exterior appears concerning but very safe and secure. Would definitely stay again. Train station lots of shops and food. friendly pharmacy across street.
Upon arrival we were told that we couldn’t have a shower as the heating was out and it was being fixed. It was freezing cold outside. We were told it would be all working by 6pm. We had a volleyball game to go to so we went. We got back at 11pmish. It was snowing outside, as we entered the hotel we were told the heating would be working within 30mins. Lies, lies, lies. No heating for our whole stay. They also didn’t tell us that we couldn’t park in the public car park over night which caused a huge problem for us and cost us some money. They told us we should’ve asked them. Breakfast looked stale and still no heating when we left. No sorry, no compensation. In all my years of travelling this is by far the worst place I have ever stayed. I would recommend that hotels.com not have them on their books. It was a nightmare.
Hotel was clean and the desk/housekeeping staff were friendly and helpful. It is an older building hence the two star rating. A good choice for an experienced traveller who is not fussy. Train/bus station is located nearby (10 minute walk) and the "old centre" is only a 20 minute walk. If you are staying in Brussels for 1 or 2 nights and looking for a "good value" hotel the Continental Gare du Midi should be considered.

Convenient location
Just outside Gare Midi, so perfectly located if you are arriving from Charleroi with the airport shuttle. The hotel itself is very old-fashion...smells like an old house, but for the price is accetable to spend a night.
