Staying at The Usual was an incredible experience! Our room was very quiet and stayed plenty cool and dark, despite the fact that we were there during the big heat wave! The food and drinks from the U Bar were excellent and so convenient. Staff was friendly and helpful, especially Itzel! We felt the staff wanted us to be comfortable and enjoy our stay, and we did! The overall feel of the hotel is funky and modern, and I loved all the features that made it eco-friendly! We would definitely stay again. Thanks for being our sweet home away from home for 5 days!

The hotel was lovely and perfectly located. It’s right in the city center, and the street is very nice, with several supermarkets just across the road. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always helpful. I stayed for a week and truly loved the hotel, I would definitely love to stay here again. The room was beautiful, the decoration was amazing, and everything was spotlessly clean. The cafe was also very cozy. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone! Thank you for everything.

About 10-min walk from Brussels-Nord station, in an area with all type of shops and stops such as supermarkets, restaurants, fast-food(McDonald’s), metros & buses, etc. You can choose to do self-check-in/out on a kiosk at the lobby but the staff is always there willing to help. Free filtered water is provided at the check-in/out spot, saving money for purchasing bottled water from the nearby supermarket.
