Excellent stay! Central location, can easily get to the grand place and other points of interest by walking or bus. The hotel and rooms were clean, safe, quiet and allowed for a very comfortable stay. The only recommendation is to have an AC unit attached to the wall instead of the portable one where we had to connect the exhaust pipe out the window. Other than that, no other issues, staff were nice and friendly. Highly recommend.

Great small hotel to stay.

We had a great stay! It was super close to the Metro and walking distance to the Grand Place square and lots of shops and restaurants. The breakfast service (for a small fee) was of high standard. Staff were very courteous and accommodating. Was pleased with our stay.

The room they gave us is not in the hotel and it is in a creepy basement across the street that reeks of raw sewage. There is no natural light and the furniture and mattress are terrible quality. I can hear all the upstairs tenants when they walk or use their toilet. Staying at Hotel du Congres was a terrible experience.

Bed bugs!!

I never tend to leave bad reviews. But here it goes. I've never encounter a place that had bed bugs before (and I had stayed in really badly reviewed places). I have bite marks all over my arms, face and legs! I'm badly surprised, as the price is not cheap! Please do something with your overall cleaningness.
