Warwick Grand-Place Brussels
Great location. The shower in the room was a bit small, but that might just be the "American" in me... There was also a lack of outlets in the room. Very minor things, I would stay here again. Clean, safe, vibrant!

Nice spacious room with kitchenette, dinner corner and balcony with a view on a garden. Very calm despite that you are in the center of Brussels. Staff was friendly and helpful. Can warmly recommend and we will come back when staying in Brussels.
