Le Frederiksborg

FREDERIKSBORG

The location that I was told by the hotel manager was misleading. The subway service is more complicated than the hotel post on its website. The hotel is far away from the nearest subway station. The beds were small and uncomfortable ,when I called the receptionist and asked about the time I was told thet this is not a time service.

Good value and location

Staff was courteous and even let us check in at 9am after our long flight, since they had an unused room from the night before. Room was clean and fairly comfortable. The stairway to the rooms was a little narrow and steep, but they have an elevator which, although small, does the job. WiFi signals were strong throughout hotel and the speed was pretty good, plus it was free.

Good value

This is a no frills hotel that has good value for the money. They are located in a good area of Brussels, and there's a subway station across the adjacent park to get to downtown if you don't want to drive (and you don't want to drive). They have free wi-fi, the food is good and reasonably priced, and they're flexible. For example, we booked two months ahead on hotels.com, but ended up a day early without letting them know. It was noon, but they had a room ready, so the receptionist handed over a key, and a map of Brussels, and that was that. No hassles at all. I had trouble getting my iPod Touch to connect to their wi-fi, and their manager did it for me. Nice.

Very accomodating

This is my third trip to this hotel. Each room has been pretty different, and although no frills, is just fine for someone on a budget. Although not centrally located, the metro is close by, at the end of the park across the street. Most recently, we were allowed to check in several hours early and previously I checked out early in a confusion during my tour around Europe, and the hotel refunded the night! One downfall is the lack of brochures, maps for site seeing, so just do some homework first before the trip. Staff too will help with any questions.

I'd stay here again.

Room smaller than average U.S. hotel rooms, however, clean and comfortable. We walked around the neighborhood and felt safe...metro is at the end of the park across the street, about a 10 min walk, which is convenient to access other parts of the city. Staff were pleasant, although not forthcoming about offering information about sight seeing interests, however did answer any questions. I unknowingly checked out a day earlier than what I booked. I was surprised that the hotel didn't mention anything. I was in Paris checking into my next hotel when I found out, and Hotels.com mediated communication with Le Frederiksborg to refund my last night. I was impressed with with Hotels.com as well as Le Frederiksborg for understanding and resolving the situation.

A pleasant place in Brussels

A bit outside the main part of city but fairly easily accessible by metro. Fantastic park across the street as well as cathedral in full view. At the price, Le Frederiksborg is very worth the stay.

Not bad hotel

This hotel is good, its a little far from the Grand Place (40 min walk), but the walk is very easy, and the hotel is really close to a subway stop. There is a shower and sink in the room, but the toilet is shared by four rooms. There is also a very nice restaurant bar downstairs which is open pretty late. For the money, this hotel is definitely worth it, if you are willing to be a little outside of downtown Brussels
