Hotels near Muurschildering ＂Toren van Babel＂, Brussels

All staff were excellent and helpful. Convenient location right next to Gare du Midi, about 20 minutes' walk to Grand Place (ie tourist centre). Comfortable very clean room. Good breakfast. Useful later checkout time of Midday. Good wifi. The rooms are on the small side and there is a previously mentioned design fault in the bathroom which means the shower tray is too small with limited screen so it is easy to flood the floor if not careful (this would have been easy to anticipate and is frankly ridiculous) . Several power points in room but no kettle and there was no free tea/coffee as mentioned in previous reviews except at breakfast (so bring your own kettle and cups etc if you enjoy hot beverages in the room). The breakfast area is also very cramped and gets awkward getting food when there are more than a few people there. I can't help but feel a bit of attention at the design stage would have remedied a lot of these problems. The area the hotel is located in may be a little seedy for some - similar to areas near big stations in many large European cities . But it is only 3 minutes walk from Eurostar arrival.

Stayed here two nights in mid-January 2023. Hotel is located in a gritty area, with much construction, but just a five minute walk to the main train station, with many transit connections. It's about a 10 - 20 minute walk to various tourist sites in the city. There are convenience stores and dining options nearby. Staff was OK but not overly friendly. Single room was small, but clean and the price was fair. There was a heating/AC unit on the wall but one button was missing and it didn't appear to be working. Temp was OK. There was a small desk and chair. Shower and sink were in the room and toilet in a small closet. The window opened into a narrow ventilation shaft so it was rather dark. Wifi, lights and TV worked fine. I didn't pay for the breakfast. It wasn't great, but it did the trick.

I spent two nights at the Mercure hotel near Brussels midi station, so that I could be close to the conference I was attending nearby. Hotel faces an enormous building site. This isn’t too much of a problem as I couldn’t see much actual work taking place, but it is an enormous project and one would think that this could be quite noisy. The area surrounding the hotel is not great. I already knew this, but I would suggest if you’re a tourist, ignore the proximity to the station and find somewhere nicer. The building itself is fine. The reception was excellent and check-in was seamless. My real issue is with the room… Whilst I accept it is clean and tidy, the bed is unbelievably uncomfortable. The mattress is absolutely no ‘give’ in it whatsoever, so much so that I had two really bad nights sleep. I also found the shower (which was clean) kept running cold when I was using it, which was extremely annoying, especially after a poor nights sleep. I payed for breakfast, which was sp**** to say the least. Very little choice. This is a fairly average business hotel and I would look elsewhere next time I was in Brussels.

Because hotels around the electronic music festival have a lot of premiums, this is the most cost-effective hotel nearby. The room is new, and there are no reviews online. It is considered a blind box, and I was afraid of making mistakes. The result is much better than expected, and the price/performance ratio is excellent. I arrived at the hotel early. I couldn't get up early. They said it had to be at 3 o'clock, so I had breakfast on the first floor of the hotel. It cost 9 euros and the taste was okay. Later, I went out for a walk, and when I came back here, I checked in at around 2 o'clock. There is a 24-hour Carrefour next to it, which is very convenient. I brought two packs of instant noodles from China, but I was worried that there would be no containers. It turns out there is a lounge on the -1st floor of the hotel, including a microwave, hot water and coffee machine, which is very convenient. You can store your luggage before check-in and after check-out

By the renovation of the hotel, the rooms are beautiful and cozy. The cleanliness is given and the beds are comfortable. A fan stands on the room, this cools the room comfortable down. The choice of breakfast is great. However, there is a major problem, the situation. Absolutely bad. Even if it's only five minutes to the center, we have decided to drive with Uber. Because people in the neighborhood are very aggressive and would not hesitate to steal or threaten someone.

The airport is about 20 mins from the hotel and cost about EUR46. As we arrived early morning into Brussels, we were able to leave our luggage at the hotel and go for a wonder into the city. The hotel also due to availability allowed earlier check in later in the day which was ideal. The location of the hotel was perfect as we were within 10 mins walking location of all the major tourist sights including Grand Place, Mannekin Pis, Choco Museum as well as some historical stunning Churches, some of which were literally on the other side of the hotel. The hotel is surrounded by many different restaurants and cafes - of all budgets including so many halal options which was a total surprise. There are also supermarkets within walking distance for water/snacks etc. Room was cleaned everyday and all staff were always friendly and attentive. Facilities in the room include tea/coffee making and one bottle of water as well as the standard things. Breakfast - excellent variety, plentiful, fresh and delicious and all staff were very friendly and cheerful especially towards children which was great to see. Worth paying extra to include breakfast. Swimming Pool - small but was ideal and my son enjoyed this, shallow water which is perfect for children. There is also some gaming/fun for children in the lounge. Again due to late evening flight, we were able to leave our luggage and do last minute shopping and a visit to the Choco Museum. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay here again if we visit Brussels and would highly recommend to anyone visiting the city.

We were there during four nights. Cheap prices to be located in the heart of Brussels ( just 5 minutes away from City Center) close to restaurants and train station. Easyly located on Google Maps. Wifi and an other amenities provided. The room was very tidy and clean with a very confortable bed. 0 noisy, and the space it's ok for two people. Staff was so kind and polite, specially the Spanish guy. It's a low cost hotel but feels like 4 star by far. During your stay you have a right to one-room cleaning service, otherwise you have to pay 15 euros so be smart and ask for that service in the middle of your stay. 2 hour hair-dryer free service and vending machine at main floor. I would highly recommend this hotel so far. Our next trip around Europe will be in EasyHotel

The hotel Siru is particularly good for those who are required to be in the offices around the North Station or who wish to explore Brussels. The access door is defect and therefore you need to enter the hotel next door. The people at the reception are friendly and helpful. The room is OK, small and just, but also with a proper bed, desk, stop contacts and USB gates for example to load a phone, large box. The darkness cord is just too small, which makes you not able to dark the room. The door has dirty lining traces and a evacuation plan is missing. The room has coffee and water. The bathroom with toilet, lavabo and shower is also small. There are towels, soaps, etc. However, the shower is hardly going through and is packed with smooth tiles with polluted fittings (i.e. fungi), and the toilet is hardly swallowing through. Unfortunately, there is a lot of noise at night: street noise from the square, but also a lot of disturbing sounds from the top bathrooms and showers. I suspect that there are also a lot of people who have to stay at the airport because from 4.30 you hear people leave the room and the corridor.... Often with stinging doors. The breakfast is OK: good coffee (but only one machine...) and fruit juice, enough choice of bread and coating, cheese, sauces, cheese, charcuterie and even fruitsla. The hotel is not clean enough, so you often have to sit on a table where the stitches, dirty cups and the cover of old guests were left. I cannot recommend this hotel. The number of negative points is too high. And so, the price and quality of the offers are not in balance, and I will not come back here.

I spent a couple of nights in this hotel and to my surprise the atmosphere matches the (visual) story the website tells. It's a relief compared to many other hotels I've stayed in. It's almost as if you're in some classy exotic holiday hotel. The Botanic gardens right outside the hotel make up for the lack of atmosphere of the area... although the location very near the North train station is very convenient. The informally clothed staff are young, very friendly and energetic. The bar at the top floor of the hotel is a nice surprise! One of the Barista guys went out of his way to tell me about many details of the hotel and its philosophy, gave tips of where to go and what to see... all the while busy preparing mean coffees. (Scruffy beard, earring... Petey?) If you need to stay in Brussels for business (or pleasure of course) I can only imagine it must be a relief that some hotel chains do understand how to make you feel at home. (I'm regretting now not stealing the nice mug from the room!)

I stayed for one night here bei g in the city for a football trip. The hotel is everything I would expect from an Ibis, no thrills, but clean, and comfortable. The room was decent and the bed very comfortable and the bathroom was fine albeit fairly small. The breakfast was decent, all you can eat and drink with a selection of hot , cold meats with cheese, fruits, pastries and yoghurts and toast and it all tasted good. Slight complaint that I waited at the bar to get served and was ignored so gave up - but otherwise the staff were fine. Another bonus is the hotel is literally a few minutes walk from Erasmus metro station which is only 20 minutes from the city centre. I would use it again.
