Rijmenam Holidays

Great location, very close to Grand Place and within walking distance of many attractions in central Brussels. We didn’t need a car for most places, although you would need one or public transport for Atomium and Mini-Europe. The staff were very kind and helpful, and the air conditioning worked well. The main downside is that the hotel has no parking. Street parking is expensive and not ideal, but I found a nearby parking garage for about €31 per 24 hours. Checkout was a little difficult because there was nowhere to stop the car near the hotel to load our luggage. Overall, a very positive stay, especially if you are visiting Brussels without a car.

Perfect location, friendly staff. Room had dust under the radiator and caulk in the shower had mold. As did the windowsill in the bathroom. Bed was comfortable. No view out the Windows and hall way was pitch black until you walked a few feet into it. Slept well. Appreciated the ceiling fan and AC.

The Hotel was ok.... Not bad, not great, just ok. We arrived early and tried to check in, but we could not. No big deal, they took our luggage, we changed and hit the streets. I had major jet lag and needed to take a bath once we came in for the evening. Drew a bath, soaked and relaxed, BUT WAIT... when I drained the tub, it backed up the shower. The grime and smell that came out was horrid. So apparently the tub, shower and sink drains were all connected. So taking a shower, it would flood the floor and back up into the tub. Brushing your teeth backed up into the shower.... Never ending issue and not enough towels to keep the floor dry. This was the worst part of the Hotel stay. All the Staff were really nice, even bringing me a new hair dryer because I couldn't figure out how to use the one in the room, lol. The area is decent, cars, bikes, and motorbikes go VERY FAST on this tiny wide street. There is a convenient store right across the street which was nice to grab snacks and extra drinks. It is a little walk to get anywhere you want. If you have walking issues, this might not be the place for you as far as location. We loved the extra walks to take off a few waffle calories, lol. The area is not sketchy, but there were a few vagrants, just say no or shake your head and they move on. Overall, it was a good stay, just couldn't give 5 stars due to the plumbing.

The hotel and the staff were lovely. We were able to check in 3 hours early and park our car, which was lovely. The 4th floor corner room was a great size with many large windows opening to the street. We went to the rooftop bar with lovely views, even with the rain!
