Quality was surprisingly good -- except that the internet doesn't work and the hotel doesn't seem to care. When I asked they laughed and said something about how it 'takes forever to get repairs done in Belgium.' I stayed in another hotel farther south and that is closer to the Grand Place and more interesting than this sterile office neighborhood. more

I picked Centrale because we had to make several trips by train and the hotel is literally 2 minutes walk from Central railroad station. Other then that, nothing remarkable. Only one out of two requested non-smoking room was available, although as a compensation I was given a room at the top floor with a balcony. have to admit, there was... more

I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights and it was not so bad. The hotel is not stylish, nor a "boutique hotel" at all: it has nothing special, furniture is quite old and the common spaces stink of smoking. But the rooms and bathrooms are clean and the bed is REALLY comfortable, I had wonderful sleeps. The location is... more

I booked one night at hotel Centrale in April. However, the experience with the management and front desk was horrible. Upon checking out, I was wrongly presented an extra-fee for using the Pay-TV system at 1: 00AM!!! I hate to dispute in public, but I did that with the manager and the front desk. Their accusation was: "because you press... more

If you are looking for a clean basic hotel in a great location the Hespria is worth considering. As others have commented, the hotel is right by the metro/station centralle and within easy walking distance of most sights. I found the staff on the front desk to be very friendly and helpful, speaking many languages and recommending restaurants and sights... more

Good room rate and convenient location (right next to the station). Breakfasts are reasonable. Free use of the internet in the lobby. There can be quite a bit of noise from the street during the night if you have the window open. Rooms and corridors could do with a bit of redecoration/modernisation. I prefer the other Hesperia hotel in Brussels... more

One of the best hotels I've stayed at. I arrived very early (around 9am) and readily expected to be asked to leave my bags and come later but the receptionist found me a splendid room with a magnificent view over the city. Sure it was small, but the balcony made it seem bigger and the bathroom was a good size.... more

This is a small hotel. Only a 4 minutes walk from central railway station, which is an important thing in Brussels, the Airport Express train is a practical and reasonably priced alternative for a taxi! The taxi drivers in Brussels seem to cheat foreigners as much as possible, overcharging is a rule. I have to go to Brussels quite often,... more
