Like other people said, the area is not clean. It’s not dangerous but the atmosphere feels uneasy for women.

Great hotel for men. You can get there from Brussels midi station on foot in 15 minutes. There is a good seafood restaurant just around the corner and it’s worth trying when you stay there.

Location is so-so. Not far away from the city center (25 min walk), but the area is quite dirty. My wife would feel uncomfortable walking there alone in the evening. It's 5 minute walk away from the nearest bus stop and 15 minute away from the nearest subway station.

Room is not big but cosy and clean. Lobby interior is a fusion of old furniture and modern paintings. Breakfast is not varied but tasteful. Waitress had a struggle with waffle cooking, but I liked the result.

Neighborhood. Were scared to come back late because of people living in that area

Close to city center

Only thing is the neighbourhood that is not very clean, but you dont spend there such time to worry about it.

Very nice hotel with kind staff. The location is good, you are in walking distance to the city center, railway station and metro. The rooms are clean, they have absolutelly comfortable beds and pillows. Breakfast is enough to satisfy and the ladies serving it are very helpful and nice.

Unfortunately, the neighborhood where the hotel is situated is a bit rough and quite dirty. I didn't feel safe walking around at night and wouldn't recommend it based on the location.

The hotel was pleasant, well-connected to the train station (a 20-minute walk) and a 20-minute walk to the city center. The room was spacious, with a very nice shower.

The locatie was chaotic and unexpected. It was hard to navigate

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Hotel was very clean and quiet. Underground parking was great.

Not a problem for me but maybe for someone it can be important... There was no fridge in the room.

I really enjoyed my stay in the hotel. Although I stayed only for one night. What I liked: the room was very clean, it had big, comfortable bed and clean, new bathroom. As it was facing the inner garden it was very quiet. The hotel is beautifully decorated and pleasant to stay at. I liked the breakfast! Very tasty and big enough. The stuff was also very friendly. I read some comments saying the location is bad. So here is my opinion..... It is located very close to Brussels Midi Rail Station. I arrived at 10 pm and walked to the hotel in 15 min. It is true that there is lots of rubbish on the streets. But it is not specific to the street where the hotel is located. The hotel district around Brussels Midi is a bit disorganized and has the same rubbish problem. It immediately reminded me of Paris. Just a typical Parisian street with beautiful historical buildings and lots of rubbish around. I actually enjoyed the walk. The hotel is located on a main. busy street, full of shops, cafes and public transport. So you can always chose walking there. I enjoyed my stay and would book it again.

The receptionist spoke very fast and complex French sentences so we had to resort to her excellent English. The area was a bit run down.

Easy check in. Small bar had a good selection of beer which was appreciated given the pooring rain outside. Room was spotlessly clean with everything we needed.

It would be nice to have an actual glass instead of a paper cup wrapped in plastic in the bathroom. And some decorations would make the room look more cozy.

Very friendly staff, clean rooms and location is close to the city centre

The staff were polite, friendly and extremely helpful. The facilities were clean and tidy and the room was perfect for a family with children. The location isn't in a tourist area but everything was accessible by public transport or walking, both of which we did. I wouldn't hesitate to stay in this hotel again

Clean & spacious room. The bathroom and shower are separated, which is great when you share a room with three people. This is a great and affordable hotel near the Birmingham Palace. Also, when we came back from the event, our keycards didn’t work to open the front door. Luckily, the staff was there to open the door for us.

Lovely hotel, clean & modern. Staff were pleasant and the location was good. Rooms catered for our needs. No coffee making facilities in the rooms but the bar downstairs does lovely coffees for reasonable price. The bar in the hotel is not always open and does not serve food beyond continental breakfast. The immediate surroundings of the hotel are not designed for tourist families. The restaurants & shops cater for locals and they do great kebabs & falafel, just not suitable for families with children who want a sit down meal. The 51 & 82 tram run from a stop about 8 minute walk away which brings you to the centre of Brussels. Taxi ride for 4 people to Grand Place is between €9-€12.

Once more I have to emphasis that Van Belle is very nice, quiet and comfortable place to stay. Probably the carpet floors in the rooms are somehow not very hygienic (though vacuum cleaning is conducted every day). This is the only my 'contra' note - all others are 'pro'.

The room was comfortable and I had got good view on trees from quiet side of the building, not to the noisy street. Breakfast was very good -everything what is necessary for morning meal. Very tasty coffee. From the first sight the location seemed to be not very good, but after I've learnt that metro station is not very far from the Hotel.

The bed was a bit soft, not the most comfortable for me. The soundproofing is weak, and the toiletries provided in the bathroom are quite minimal. Staff Minus: they don't assist with special requests always well. We booked a room with breakfast included but for early checkout they couldn't provide a cold breakfast package as requested.

The hotel is clean, including the room and bathroom. The breakfast is delicious and plentiful, with extra freshly squeezed orange juice. The staff is friendly. Staff Plus: We received our room very early without any extra charge, thank you!

The serving of cognac at the bar was very small:) Otherwise I cannot find fault with anything.

Generally speaking all was finel. The breakfast was very good and the coffee excellent. The staff was friendly and helpful. The room was good and we slept quite well.
