Lovely hotel. It was beyond my expectations. Except on lady in the reception rest of the staffs were great. Unfortunately my room was not ready on time and had to wait 30 mins at lobby. The staff didn’t put any effort to compensate the delay.

Would stay again
A bit awkward to find down the small street, obviously to no fault of theirs my phone died and I was left to ask a taxi driver where abouts it was quite late on, confortable beds, good breakfast and a decent gym for a hotel, good location for Brussels Noord train station and the tootbus sightseeing stop is a 2 minute walk which i would recommend to anyone interested in seeing Brussels during their stay, reception area is very nice but rest of the hotel is pretty dated

A very nice experience. The room was very spacious, the bed was very comfortable, the TV was placed at a very comfortable spot (visible from bed, but not too close to disrupt sleep), and the bath tub was really nice! The location was great, very easy to get to/from the airport and train station. Also, a very nice location to have a nice long walk around all the city main views

The rooms are very spacious and location is superb. Property is a bit dated. The first room assigned was very dusty which triggered my hayfever. The second room didn’t have this problem.

It is an old property. It has been refurbished, but it remains an old property. Wafer thin connecting doors in rooms let you hear anything next doors. Showers in bathtubs very clumsy to use, clumsy partitions let water onto the floor, difficult to calibrate to the right temperature. Big rooms and bathrooms, but dark. Mirror in bathroom very dark. Very good location, near Brussels Nord. I wouldn't stay here again.

Hotel Des Colonies, Awful experience, Not recommended. The Reception staff were extremely rude, unhelpful and disinterested throughout our stay. One individual in particular became very aggressive, argumentative and intimidating when asked for the twin beds to be set up as a double bed. Even though we had booked and paid for a double bed and that is how one of the two rooms had been set up anyway. The rooms are tired and the reception area was dark and smelt stuffy and unclean. The breakfast was very poor quality and tasteless. The staff at breakfast clearly did not want to be there and did the bare minimum. There is no way I would recommend this hotel and will actively advise against using it.

Great location, value for money, and convenient for a short trip. I stayed there for 3 nights and had everything that’s necessary for the trip, restaurants, shops and the metro station is next to the hotel so it’s easy to move around, like 15-20 minute walk from the city center. Would stay here again just keep it mind it’s an old hotel.

Great location 5 minutes walk from Garenoord (north train station). Easy walk to Grand Place/Grote Market. Art deco hotel with history, very cool. Helpful staff. Building construction nearby makes the area a bit dirty but it was not noisy. Great breakfast buffet!
