Hotel Du Congres - Brussels

The hotel is conveniently located about 600 meters from the Brussels Central railway station from where you can reach almost all around Belgium by train. The room was perfectly clean and the reception staff were all extremely helpful and friendly. The free wi-fi service that is provided, however, had very weak signal reception from the room. It's an […] acceptable choice if you need a place to stay in Brussels for a day or two. For longer stays, I wouldn't so much recommend this one. Read more

Good room, excellent wifi. Close to trains stations and most attraction if you like to walk.

very friendly staff

The value is not there. I froze in the hotel room as the window is not well fixed. Heating is not enough at all. The bed is not comfortable. Location is good but, it is worth paying a few euros more to stay else where.

The hotel was not as fancy and nice as shown in the photos; however, it was still clean. It was defianetly overpriced for the quality of the hotel, but also staying in the center of Brussels can be expensive. The staff was really nice, and followed through with calling a cab for the morning, and giving me a wake up call. Breakfast was included which […] was nice. I do not speak Dutch or French so people were very patient and nice to me. The elevator was a little scary for me so I decided to use the stairs. Overall, the hotel was good because I was able to sleep in a place I felt safe and comfortable. Read more

Not very high-quality for a three star. There is no minibar in the room, and the room was tiny and with minimal furnishing. The location is good, though, breakfast is OK and the staff was helpful (and on duty 24/7, not always a given).

Genuine Expedia guest review

Breakfast was good. Unfortunately, no fan in the room on the hottest weekend of the year was unpleasant for sleeping. Parking was actually free on the weekend while parking on the street right in front of the hotel. Nice! The Metro was less than a five minute walk from the hotel or a thirty minute walk to down town. Overall, a pleasant stay for the […] price. Read more

Relatively close to Grand Place. Nightmare if it's been a hot day, there is no air-conditioning. Bring a fan with you if it's summertime. Breakfast was okay, wireless worked only occasionally. Probably won't be staying there again anytime soon.

We had a very positive experience at the Hotel du Congress, with a charming, split-level room containing 4 single beds that was ideal for our family. The room was located up two flights of stairs, making it somewhat difficult of access for families with much luggage. But the room featured large, lovely windows that opened into a vine covered patio area, […] and the sleeping area was nicely separated from the dressing area and bathroom by four steps. The bathroom was meticulously clean and airy, and the tub and shower were combined with piece of very heavy glass forming the shower curtain. We found the service excellent at all times, and especially at check-in when we were well-oriented to the surrounding civic areas near the hotel. The hotel was created by converting an old, renowned Brussels restaurant, the Carousel, and the dining area was elegant and lavish remnant of the former restaurant, with views into a lovely courtyard.

Details mention windows that open. Read between the lines, no A/C!At least the humidity was a pleasant 95%! Typical Europe, however 3star to me implys A/C. Room reminded me of the enlisted barracks. Three different buildings, ours was across the street and had no elevator.

This was a lovely hotel. Our quad room was amazingly huge with beautiful molding on the walls. Much larger than double rooms, Only draw back was no A/C. Nice staff & good breakfast. Good location. 20 minute beautiful walk to the Grand Place. Stores open til 12 midnight.

This was my second stay at the Hôtel du Congrès and I would happily return next time I'm in Brussels. My room was clean and reasonably-sized by European standards and the cost compared to many other hotels in Brussels was reasonable. It is walking distance from the Central train station, the Grand Place, museums, restaurants, etc and there is also a […] Metro stop close by. The breakfast is good, too. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

It's a decent hotel - i just happen to feel it's overpriced. Yes, a simple breakfast is included, the neighborhood was alright (comments on other dodgy neighborhoods scared me away actually and was one reason I chose this place) and it is certainly possible to walk to the central station and Grand Place. Can't say it was memorable, but comfortable enough. […] I stayed across the street where they told me the rooms were bigger. The room was decent sized with a double bed. All in all, 'ok' - the inclusive breakfast and wifi help... but still feel a bit robbed on price. Read more

Small hotel located in a sleepy neighborhood near the Belgian Parliament. Fashioned from several older town houses, the blend of modern renovation and antique interior spaces makes for an interesting environment. Many rooms look out on a garden courtyard, making for an extremely quiet stay. Room was small with somewhat spartan furnishings, but functional. […] Bed was a bit squishy. Excellent wireless. Friendly staff; quite decent breakfast buffet. Local shops cater to the business lunch crowd, but a pleasant square around the corner has three brasseries frequented by locals. Very convenient three minutes to the Metro, making it 10-15 minutes to the city center or the EU zone. Michelin-rated for 2011. Read more

it was a comfortable place to stay ...

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

For the price, the hotel is decent. Clean rooms, nice continental breakfast, nice wait staff for breakfast and nice cleaning staff. Unfortunately, the walls are paper thin and you can hear everything going on, even down the halls. Also, when I arrived, the conceirge was not pleasant. He simply asked my name and gave me a key and went about his business. […] Of course, I had a couple of questions, which seemed to displease him. Other than that, the other conceirges were nice and helpful. Read more

Newly refurbished rooms in a quiet neighborhood. Everything was clean and nice. Friendly staff and a very reasonable price. Would recommend this hotel anytime.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

While the recption area was nicely decorated appointed, the room itself was more like that of a hostel - literally just a bed, table & chair. If you aren't planning on doing anything more than sleeping in the room it's adequate. The location was convenient - less than 15 min walk to the train station to the airport and the main tourist area. The hotel […] is on a quite noisy road - not unbearably so but bring ear plugs!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This hotel looked quite old from outside but was in a great central location. It was about 10 mins walk from Grand Place and very convenient to if using public transport. The room we got was a part of the old house and had all old features in it. Although the room looked tired and need of paint, we had good ensuite (1 with bath tub and 1 with WC) and […] very big room. Our kids loved the room as it felt like living in a castle with floor to ceiling mirror and windows. We stayed there for 2 nights during Easter 2013 and really liked the hotel staff specially the manager. He went out of his way to help us out with buying/printing tickets for tours and with our luggage. Thanks for the great stay. Read more

Given the location, I expected to suffer street noise but our room faced a very quiet little courtyard and we couldn't hear anything from the street at all. Such a nice surprise! We drove over in our own car and managed to find parking near to the hotel for both of the days we were there but it is necessary to pay for parking on the street and there […] were no garages to be seen. The walk to the Grand Place took about 15 minutes, downhill there and uphill back but the uphill is hardly noticable if you're munching on chocolates. The breakfast buffet could be better: for example, tinned fruit salad and everything calculated to the slice so that if you're at the tail end of breakfast service you don't even get that. No decaff coffee either. Read more

I was surprised to hear that there was no booking for me .... it took another 1 hour for the receptionist to find the book who gave me a room which has no attached toilet... also very noisy surroundings....If I have no good hotel availability..then I might choose this as last choice.

Great location for events in the Cirque Royal and only a 15 minute walk to the Grand Place. The hotel is quite basic, but very good value for money, we all enjoyed our stay here. The staff at reception are very friendly and try to help. Domestic staff can be a bit rude, but you only really interact with them in the morning so that's not a big issue […] . Read more
