Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is conveniently located, making it easy to access trains for day trips. The rooms are spacious and clean, although noisy due to the main road. The staff is friendly and helpful, except for some untrained members. Dining options are decent, with good breakfast choices but could be pricey. Overall, a convenient hotel for travelers.
The hotel rooms were spacious, quiet, and clean, although basic considering the price. Storing luggage on arrival or departure for the day required local coin, which was a minor inconvenience. The lights in the room were hot and took a moment to fully illuminate, possibly due to power-saving bulbs.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were good but a bit noisy being on the main road. They were comfortable overall, although I missed having a fridge. The service was a bit inconsistent; friendly reception staff but some were disinterested. The location was excellent for travelers coming from the UK or needing to catch the Eurostar. The dining was decent and filling, but a bit pricey. The facilities were satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was excellent, very quiet, and perfect for traveling around Belgium and Europe with the Brussels Midi station right on the doorstep. However, the lack of nice surroundings and some disappointments in the dining experience slightly affected my overall impression.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The sauna-like room ambiance and the absence of a quick morning coffee or tea also affected my stay negatively.
My room, booked a month in advance, turned uncomfortably hot in the middle of the night. Despite that, it was surprisingly spacious and decorated in a modern fresh style. The service was accommodating, offering a room change for a quieter stay and even providing toothpaste when needed. The location, while convenient for Gare du Midi connections, felt uncomfortable due to the presence of beggars and sketchy individuals, yet ideal for Eurostar travelers. The dining options were reasonably priced but limited in variety. Overall, great value for the amenities provided.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were good, but cleanliness could be improved. The shower was excellent, but the room felt a bit neglected. The service was disappointing, but breakfast stood out. The location was convenient, but had safety concerns for solo travelers.
The hotel offers clean rooms, though a bit of freshening up could help eliminate the typical hotel smell. The rooms are quiet, ensuring a peaceful stay. The location is good for city exploration, but proximity to the central railway station comes with some drawbacks. The dining experience had its flaws, yet it provided some helpful aspects.

The hotel had a unified system of heating in the rooms, which were spacious and immaculately clean throughout, setting it apart from other Ibis hotels. While the rooms had an ugly smell, the overall cleanliness was commendable. The service was somewhat indifferent, with some helpful staff members but also instances of neglect and unhelpfulness. The location, although not the best in terms of fashion or touristy attractions, was easy to reach from Brussels Midi, making it comfortable for our stay. The dining experience was a mix of good and odd, with some delicious options but also a few shortcomings in the food quality. Overall, the stay was comfortable but had some room for improvement in service and dining offerings.
The hotel is conveniently located across from the Brussels-Midi train station. The rooms, though in need of a good clean and with loose floorboards, have everything one needs and offer friendly service. The service goes above and beyond to make quick dinners but lacks a consistent level of customer care. The location is excellent for train connections but may not be ideal for exploring the surrounding area. The dining experience is basic and a bit pricey for what is offered. Overall, it's a decent place for a quick stop over.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were good size, but unfortunately, they were too hot and I couldn't adjust the temperature properly. On the bright side, the breakfast offered excellent options. However, the terrible smell in the room, even with the window open, was a major drawback. The bathroom was also disappointing, not what I expected from a 3-star hotel.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were super comfortable and big, making for a good night's sleep. However, it was a bit chilly during my stay as the room couldn't get warm even with the A/C set to blow hot air. The service was top-notch with helpful and professional staff, always ready to assist. The location was convenient being close to the train station and bus/tram stops, but some parts of the area seemed a bit dodgy. Dining options were good with waffles being a favorite, and the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel is very conveniently located across from the Brussels-Midi train station, offering big, clean rooms with ready coffee and tea bags, making it a basic but suitable choice for a night's stay. The service was exceptional, going above and beyond to assist with travel restrictions and arranging an early take-away breakfast. The dining experience was fantastic with a variety of choices at a good price. However, it's worth noting that some areas of the hotel could use a bit more attention to detail.
