Hotels near Laeken, Brussels

The room was a bit small overall, making it a little tight with large luggage. However, the environment was lovely, clean, and cozy. The hotel's location is super convenient, right next to the central train station, which has a supermarket and McDonald's. Just a heads-up, the supermarket closes quite early. You can buy an all-day pass for unlimited train rides.

Excellent hotel in Brussels city. The hotel and the rooms i booked was clean for the both! When you entered in the lobby you will smell the good and refreshing! The reception is very helpful. Also the cookies when you checked in was so good. When I come back to Brussels for the next time, I would book this hotel again.

Excellent experience at Hotel Indigo. I spent 4 nights in a room spacious enough for two people. The bed and pillows were great. Our room on the sixth floor overlooked Rogier Square, which was very nice but a bit noisy. Sirens of all kinds passed by frequently. The bathroom was good, and the walk-in shower was good (no bidet, but I certainly didn't expect one). The breakfast was excellent with a wide variety of high-quality savory options. The pastries were also great. It had an open kitchen concept. The decor in the hallways and room was very exotic and fun. Good location with a metro stop right under the square. Two stops in 5 minutes to get to the city center. Overall a positive review.

Todo genial, al lado del metro, pero si nos abieron la puerta el servicio de limpieza

The hotel is very close to FlixBus bus stop! There is a police station and halal supermarket for Muslim community behind the hotel. The hotel should consider having 2 front desk workers at a time instead of just 1 person manning the front desk. When there are group of people talking and running around at the hotel room corridor, I couldn’t find the front desk person to solve the problem as there was no one at the front desk.

Pros: 1. **Convenient Location:** The hotel is right above various transportation hubs, including bus stops, tram stations, and a subway station. 2. **Close to Train Station:** The train station is large and very close; I walked there in 8 minutes, and the path was good, making it easy to pull my luggage. 3. **Modern Room Amenities:** The room has full electronic controls and air conditioning, so the hardware facilities are quite good. 4. **Modern Art Vibe:** I really liked the modern art atmosphere throughout the building. There were also many art books by world-renowned modern artists nearby, which I took some time to browse. 5. **Fresh Linens:** The bedding was relatively new, well-laundered, and neatly ironed. 6. **Excellent Breakfast:** The breakfast was fantastic! There was a chef making omelets to order, smoked salmon, and a variety of hot dishes every day. 7. **Shopping Nearby:** There's a large shopping mall and a commercial street just across the road. Cons: 1. **Housekeeping Issue:** One day, I turned on the 'make up room' light and left. The housekeeping department didn't clean my room. When I returned in the evening and saw them outside the neighboring room, I asked them to clean mine as soon as possible, and I went to the lobby to wait. After an hour and forty minutes, I came back, and the room still hadn't been cleaned. This felt disrespectful to me. I spoke to the front desk, and after a few more tens of minutes, I inquired again, and the room was finally cleaned. This issue didn't happen again. 2. **Water Stains:** Some of the facilities had white limescale, which should be cleaned more thoroughly.

Cozy, clean, decent noise isolation (room window was facing the busy street), large bathroom. Slightly cramped because an extra bed was in the room, although I booked only for one person, but since I only stayed two nights, didn't mind too much. Somewhat disappointed by the breakfast options that didn't match the menu advertized, cooked foods only consisted of boiled/scrambled eggs and bacon. Didn't try the waffles that you can make yourself. No complimentary toothpaste was available when I asked at reception.

Traveling with my teenage daughter and my family of three, the hotel was old but very clean. Three single beds and even a bathtub – excellent value for money. It's in a great location for exploring the city on foot. Parking was an issue though; the Victoria car park directly in front has a height limit of 1.8m, so my car couldn't fit. I ended up parking at a nearby car park for 30 Euros a day. The sink drained slowly, and when I asked to change rooms, they didn't have any available, but they kindly offered a complimentary breakfast for three, which was satisfying. For reference, after I poured hot water down the sink about three times, the water started draining a bit faster, haha.

This hotel is really old... Don't let the five-star rating fool you, it feels more like a three-star. The elevator is incredibly slow, from 1999! The furniture in the room is also very dated. The front desk sells bottled water in glass bottles for 8 euros a pop – ridiculous. As our Belgian client told us, the hotel's location is right between a safe area and an unsafe one. It's close to the light rail, but there's no elevator from the light rail station to the street level, which is quite annoying. Walking to the city center is fairly convenient though. For the price, it offers good value for money; other hotels in the same area are more expensive.

Booked the most basic room there was, as I was there for the F1 weekend, and will not be in the room except at night for resting. The location is nestled nicely between Brussels North Station and the shopping area/Grand Place, so most places that I wanted to go were walkable. I didn't interact with many service staff except when I checked in and out. Shower pressure was poor; it could have been better, considering the water pressure was quite strong. In terms of cleanliness, you could feel the grime on the carpet when walking barefoot. There was mould all over the pillars and walls of the room and toilet, and a musky smell coming from the cupboard. There is also no air-con in the room, when I say no air-con, I don't mean it is spoilt, there simply isn't one, so expect the room to be stuffy, especially on hotter months. I was lucky as the temperature at night was around 16C, so I used the portable heater as a ventilator fan.
