I enjoyed my stay at the Metropole. However I was based on the 6th floor which seemed to have far better rooms than my colleagues on the 1st. Decor was lovely, location was pretty good and staff gave service to a very high level. Only real downside was the prices. Over 7€ for a pint of beer.

My stay of three nights was very comfortable and pleasant. The room was beautiful, well equipped (mini fridge including free water and soft drinks!) and very clean and fresh, notwithstanding the fact that the hotel and the furnishings were clearly a bit aged. Decoration was delicate and the room in its entirety was very good value. I'd go back here... More

Our stay at the Metropole Hotel over the Memorial day weekend was fanastic. My family enjoy a very cute small room with a balcony the first 2 days and then the hotel up graded us to a beautiful suite because of plumbing problems with the shower. The hotel is very old but a very nice change. The staff was very... More

We stayed just the one night at this fantastic old hotel that oozed style. Couldn't quite work out why it was so cheap. About EUR125 including breakfast. Rooms a little dated in amenities, but the whole hotel was dripping with character, as well as being perfectly located, about 10 minute walk from Grand Place and easy to access Metro outside... More

Stayed here three times as it was an favourite of the person who had my job before me. Now no longer using it as an occasional Brussels base. The lobby, lift and cafe and bar and simply beautiful, as it the staircase and c.1930s vintage elevator. The rooms though, range from tired and in need of refurbishment to positively shabby... More

I simply cannot understand how others have found this great old hotel to be anything but top-level. We stayed there twice in recent weeks and found it a lovely place, elegantly designed and wonderfully run. Perfectly situated in Brussels, just a short walk from the city's grand attractions, the Metropole exudes qualityat every turn. The rooms are spacious; clean, of... More

We stayed in the Metropole because of its central location and beautiful decor, but we were disappointed for a couple of reasons. The hotel in the main areas is stunning, the location is excellent but the room we had was tired and had definitely seen better days. 1) from the main area there were 3 lifts we could find, two...

I was here for a conference, and was pleasantly surprised after reading some of the reviews. I was upgraded to a Superior room overlooking the front view, which was very pretty. My room was quite large, and included a very ample continental breakfast that was brought to my room at no extra fee. The bed was very comfy, and if... More

s hotel is a stunning building, beautiful architecture. dont be fooled though all is not as good as you would expect firstly on arrival, there is not parking on site, and the attendant was less than helpful in helping us sort out parking, so tired from travelling we gave in to the extortionate rate of 25 euros for them to...

We booked this room because of the rate. We knew it was in a good location. It turned out to be one of the best hotels we experienced.The hotel lobby and public spaces are beautiful. You feel like you're surrounded by elegance. We happened to luck out and received a room upgrade. Everything in the suite was upscale. We had... More
