First of all, lower your expectations - it is not a 4 star hotel definitely. There is no special charm to this hotel, no excellent features - like highly friendly personnel, special design or nice views. The hotel is perfectly neutral. Nevertheless, it is a perfect place for a touristic stay in Brussels. We did not use the subway at... more

This hotel has a great location, only a block from one of the main stations in Brussels and near the downtown area with lots of shops, restaurants, and nightlife. The room was quiet and clean, with a nice bathroom and comfortable bed. The host at the reception desk was very helpful and friendly, and spent quite a bit of time... more

I had read a few negative comments about this hotel, particularly noise and service so I was a bit concerned, but as it turned it there was no need to worry as we had a great 2 night stay. Location perfect if you are arriving by train 2minutes from Central Station, also very handy for the Grand Place and the... more

Hotel Centrale is excellent for both its location and the type of room for the price. I have stayed in Brussels several times at different places and I liked Hotel Centrale the best. It is located within walking distance to the Grand Place as well as plenty of restaurants and shops in a very nice section of town. The staff... more

The Hotel Centrale was extremely disappointing and cannot be considered a 4 star hotel, or even 3 star hotel, by any standard. We booked this hotel on Expedia, after reading mostly positive reviews on this website, and chose this hotel because of its proximity to both the Centrale Train Station and The Grand Place... both just minutes away. The attitude... more

We stayed at this hotel only for one night and I could not wait to check out the next morning. The carpet in common areas and the room is filthy, the sink in the bathroom was not draining and overall room condition leaves much to be desired. The only positive experience we had was with the hotel staff, who were... more

This hotel is really well located, two mins walk from the main square/shops/resturants and bars. there isnt loads to see in bruxelles, but there is a few cool buildings, tonnes of chocolate shops (that are really cheap). the hotel was really nice inside, the only negative was that there is no car parking and the receptionist was not very helpful... more

I booked this as a package on the Eurostar website. I stayed for 3 nights and overall it was very good value for money. We arrived early in the morning we expected to wait to check in, but were a little suprised when the clerk told us 4pm. We were expecting more like 1pm or 2pm to get into a... 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

This hotel has a suberp location and it's above the metro station! It's in the middle of the city but no problem with the noise, the windows and walls are thick enough to protect you against the heavy city traffic. You can park your car outside the hotel (no charge if it's from 9 pm until 9 am) or in... more
