Hotels near Amusea, Ixelles

Stayed here 2 nights with family of 4. The hotel is modern, clean and spacious. Food (ex. Pizza) and beverages are available in the lobby any time of the day. This hotel is roughly a 30 min drive from the Gare du Nord. Pros: - Around 5-10 min walk to the nearest train station and another 10-15min train ride to the city (2.10 euro for a single ticket) - Laundry room (with iron) and gym located on 2nd floor - Beds and pillow are luxuriously comfortable. Very impressed with the high quality of the rooms and the great customer service - Carrefour grocery market 1 min walk Uber is very cheap in this city compared to other EU countries. Please note this hotel is situated right beside (or is connected) to a hospital. This means taxis are available all day long but sirens will be heard throughout your stay. Overall, I recommend this hotel to those visiting the area. I however, will stay in a hotel in the city of Brussels next time around.

When I chose Aqua Hotel I had in mind the proximity of a means of public transport (about 5 min walk is the subway station Porte de Namur), the positive reviews of other travelers and it caught my attention in the photos posted on booking.com and TripAdviser a large decoration inside the hotel. Arriving on the spot, the first impression was of a decent hotel, but because I already have some experience in traveling and after talking to the reception staff and the hotel manager, I can say that it is a very good hotel. The hotel was made 12 years ago. In the building, which was completely renovated to meet the new use, the offices of a branch of Kodak were previously located. I understand that the owner of the hotel is a great art lover and even had an art gallery before the hotel where works of contemporary Belgian plastic artists were exhibited/sold. Paintings that were not sold now decorate the hotel rooms. In my room I have a 2014 Yorik Efira. This explains the decoration that I mentioned before. In fact, it is a work of art belonging to Arne Quinze. It is made of wooden planks painted in a shrill blue that contrasts with the whiteness of the walls. The work symbolizes several streams of water that are found both outside and inside, seeming to penetrate through the glass roof of the hallway at the reception. The work follows the elements of the building and gives the impression of dynamism. Quite unusual for a hotel! The bed is comfortable, all the installations in the room / toilet work flawlessly, cleaning is done every day. Breakfast is rich, diverse, and the omelette is present. Next to it sausages, or small slices of roasted ham. And the pastry, a miracle! The staff is very kind and provides accurate and useful information about the problems you may have as a tourist in Brussels.

Definitely not for the faint hearted. Was a one night stop so we survived. Area was not great but convenient for train station. However this is not my main gripe Firstly the room smelt absolutely appallingly. Strange musk like cigarettes and damp combined. Secondly some of the lights did not work. Thirdly the air conditioning began to leak water all over my bags. And finally got awoken at 7:30am from labourers working inside the hotel drilling banging and hammering away

Hotel was very clean and located 2-3 minute walk from the town centre and grand place. Was super convenient as we saved lots on busses/taxis. The hotel was slightly noisy though as it was super full.

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 stayed here in December with my family for 3 nights. The hotel is modern and located walking distance from the train station. Breakfast was of a good standard and with plenty of variety. My husband unfortunately became very ill as he had food poisoning (not from the hotel). The staff were really helpful and accommodating given the situation, they had to find us alternate rooms and everything was done swiftly and without any issues. As a result, our stay was better than expected! Thanks very much to all the hotel staff that were so accommodating.

The receptionist service is very good, the hotel is clean and comfortable, there are hair dryers and bath products, but there are no slippers and toothbrushes, you need to bring your own. The location is not bad. It is about 15 minutes from the attraction area. Very good experience.

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!)

Very good experience for a very good price and the hotel was a 10/10 without any problems

My partner and I have just come back after a new year break in Brussels. After reading the reviews we were a bit sceptical about the hotel but we had a really pleasant stay. The hotel is fine for what we needed it for-mainly to sleep after a long day exploring Brussels. The rooms were basic-yes, but clean and comfortable. The location is great, around a 15minute walk into the main square and a 5 minute walk to the nearest train station which we used to access the atomium. We didn't find the area to be uncomfortable, even when walking home on New Year's Eve at 1am. We booked as part of a Eurostar package and for the price we paid we were very happy. You get what you pay for! Can't comment on the breakfast as we didn't book as part of our package-there are lots of places in the centre to eat.
