A good hotel with nice employees. The standard of the cleaning was very good and the morning breakfast was better than first expected. The area was very boring but safe and close to ING arena. Easy to go to the city centre with the metro (walking distance from the hotel). A good experience.

Very good breakfast. Within walking distance to the Atomium sculpture, the Design Museum and King Badouin stadium. Very nice park for running and hiking. The rooms are small, but I slept very well in the beds. The bathroom shower configuration is kind of strange and a bit slippery. Internet was good; I had a conference call during my stay and there were no problems. Overall it’s a good choice if you are economizing and doing something involving the nearby amenities, like I was. But if you are doing things in other parts of the city, you probably have better choices.

Late Night Food Is A Plus!

The bar / restaurant is open late, after midnight, and offers food as well as drinks. The late-night food is limited to pre-made pizzas and pasta dishes which are heated up, but still, it's great to be able to get something to eat after a long evening out at the expo, especially since there is not much else in the immediate area.

Football visit

Stayed there to go to the Stade Roi Baudouin which is 20 minutes' walk away, as is the nearest Metro station. Close to the Expo and some museums. On the Flanders side of the border so signage in the area is generally in Flemish. Bus stop outside to get into town or direct to the airport. Limited menu but handy to be able to have food in mid-afternoon. Room is fine and had the unexpected bonus of a small balcony.

The best thing about this hotel was the staff: Everyone I interacted with - from reception to the staff at breakfast - was really friendly and went out of their way to help. Service with a smile. Lots of choice at breakfast and the warm food was warm, which isn’t always the case for buffets! The rooms themselves are basic and tired - no coffee facilities, no iron, just one soap for hair/body. Shower itself was lovely and hot with great pressure. Overall, hugely convenient if you are visiting the ING Arena, but don’t expect luxury once you arrive in your room.
