Top Brussels Hotel Reviews

Thon Hotel EU

Thon Hotel EU

10/10 Excellent
"Large high-rise hotel very close to the main EU campus in Brussels and directly on the METRO lines 1 and 5 (Maalbeek Station). Modern rooms with large bathroom, mini fridge and coffee machine. The breakfast is particularly good with a very large variety of food. A great place to stay, particularly when the EC/EU is not in session. A quick ride on the metro to anywhere in the city. Connection to the BRU airport by bus or train is a short walk (1 metro stop) to the Schuman Train and Metro station. Connection to the Centraal Train station is three Metro stops."

What is a historic hotel like in Brussels?

These types of hotels in Brussels often preserve original qualities such as period features or traditional architecture in guestrooms or communal spaces.
What is the difference between a historic hotel and a heritage hotel?
They are quite similar. The term "historic hotel" is more common in the U.S., whereas "heritage hotel" is common in Asia and Europe. Historic hotels tend to emphasise the architecture and building. Heritage hotels draw their meaning mainly from the cultural value that the place has and how it influenced the community.
Do historic hotels in Brussels have modern facilities?
Yes, every effort is made to preserve treasured traditions and historic facades, but interiors include modern conveniences and safety features. Visitors should expect the popular amenities you'd find in a hotel such as private rooms with updated bathroom facilities, heating and air conditioning, and free and fast Internet. When you book a historic hotel in Brussels, it doesn't mean you will stay in a place that's uncomfortable for guests or simply rundown.
