Located in one of the liveliest area in Brussels, on the trendy Avenue Louise – a young, multicultural and artistic area – Thon Hotel Bristol Stephanie is ideal for both businessmen and tourists. The rooms are among the biggest of Brussels and combine elegance and comfort. The Sablon square, famous for its antiques and the historical centre are easily accessible by walk.
The hotel has a great culture and the staff is always willing to help, even their top management. Was very impressed by their GM Jeffrey who went out of his way to assist us with shipping our Comms materials after our conference. He was literally on the floor helping me package the materials, which was truly remarkable. Definitely, a great place to host a conference & a great place to stay on leisure. The hotel has spacious beautifully styled rooms and is centrally located which makes it easy to get around by foot or by tram.

Take a detour from the average at four star NH Collection Brussels Grand Sablon. Tucked amid the vibrant squares and medieval streets in the heart of Brussels, the hotel represents a synthesis of old world charm and modern convenience.
We spent two nights at this lovely hotel on Place du Grand Sablon. The room, though small, was quiet, modern and comfortable. Breakfast was outstanding with a great selection of food. The staff was very helpful and went out of their way to find a Covid test site that was open on Sunday. We would definitely stay there again.

Affordable hotel at a good central location. Nice room. Good breakfast. Can be a bit noisy if you're on the street side like we did (you hear a lot of honking cars and sirens) so if you're sensitive to that bring earplugs. All in all we had a good stay.

This small designer hotel opened in 2017 in the upper floors of Ghent’s old post office building. Located in the very heart of Ghent, the hotel offers its guests some of the best views in the city. The 38 guest’s rooms are decorated in a warm style- with high ceilings, dark green walls and antique furniture – complementing the building’s late 19th century architecture. With great views through the grand window, the restored wood and indirect lighting create a cozy atmosphere accented with a contemporary touch of freshness. The natural earth colours of the interior design combine a local sense of place with a relaxed feeling of being at home. The hotel’s crowning touch is the cocktail bar – called The Cobbler, after the special type of cocktail shaker. The bar’s ambiance reflects an old-time atmosphere- with a stunning view of the spires of historic Ghent.
We have stayed there only for one night, but it was enough to relise how amazing this place is. Location is perfect, right at the city center. The hotel gives you that feeling to go back in the time. It is cozy, elegant and bed is comfortable. Staff was nice and gentle. We also have tasted some cocktails to the bar, super different and good ones.

I stay in this hotel on a regular basis. Most of the times it is ok, but for the second time I was placed on one of the inferior rooms at the 6th in spite of being told it was an upgrade. The room was poorly decorated with a camper refridgerator on the floor. Even not able to sleep because of the noise of the airco. Positive exception is the rooftop bar with very nice bartenders.

NH Collection Brussels Centre is within walking distance of the city's most historic sights and venues. Centrally located on Adolphe Max Boulevard, parallel to Brussels' famous shopping district, you can walk to the Manneken Pis, The Grand Place and the Royal Palace.
My husband and I selected the NH Collection hotel based on its proximity to Ancienne Belgique, guest reviews and the good-looking breakfast. The hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. We arrived from New York at 7 a.m., took the subway to the hotel, and the INCREDIBLE front desk manager Pedro didn't hesitate to give us early check in at 10 a.m. The fact that we were able to take a shower and change our clothes set us up for success that entire day. Our room was comfortable, clean and quiet, and our stay was superb. The hotel breakfast is by far the most lavish and delicious breakfast buffet I've ever had, and there were lovely touches in the lobby throughout the day and night--a water and candy assortment made it a fun place to come home to. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We'd go back in a heartbeat.

Situated in the center of the bustling city, but offering a welcome refuge for both business and leisure travelers, the hotel’s courtyard forms its green heart and can be appreciated from most of the building’s public areas. The 186 well-appointed rooms offer soothing décor and extensive facilities. Every room is equipped with a Nespresso machine, 49” television and complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi. A team of skilled guest relations professionals provides extraordinary service that will surprise and surpass expectations. Local dishes, such as Belgian waffles, as well as international fare are on the menu at breakfast. Gluten-free choices and a children’s menu are available upon request. The Spanish tapas bar restaurant serves seasonal, high-end cuisine with curated sherries and cava.
In the morning before the check out time, around 9 o'clock the housekeeping staff walked into my room!! waking me and my girlfriend up and making us feel really uncomfortable, this is absolutely not accepted by no one I can imagine. Also in the website it says the windows are soundproofed but I was awake most of the night hearing all the trains during the night so I was absolutely disappointed with the hotel to be an NH COLLECTION...
