Unreasonable Child Policy & Poor Customer Service

Can T TripAdvisor review

I had a very disappointing experience with this hotel’s customer service, particularly with Florentina. We booked a room with a double bed and a sofa bed, which was perfectly suitable for our family (two adults, an 8-year-old, and a 4-year-old). However, Florentina insisted that we had to pay an extra €35 for an "upgrade" because they count a 4-year-old as a full extra person. I repeatedly clarified that we did not need an extra bed—we were happy with the existing setup. Yet, she rigidly refused to accommodate us, despite the fact that countless other hotels in Europe allow small children to stay with parents in similar room configurations. When I pointed out that their own booking pictures contradict her claims about the room layout, she dismissed it and told me to cancel if I didn’t agree. The room she wanted us to upgrade to was actually less suitable for us, as the sofa bed was in a separate area from the main bed. The room we originally booked had all beds in the same space, which is why we specifically chose it. This lack of flexibility and customer care is unacceptable. I have stayed in over 100 hotels across Europe, and this is the first time I’ve encountered such an unreasonable policy. If you’re traveling as a family, especially with young children, I’d strongly advise looking elsewhere.

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. We are sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction with the room configuration and the interaction with our team member. We take pride in accommodating families and try to offer a variety of room types to meet different needs, including rooms with a double bed and sofa beds that can accommodate up to two adults and two children. We understand how important it is for families to have a comfortable and convenient room layout, and we regret that the options provided did not meet your expectations on this occasion. Furthermore, we would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused by the information provided regarding our child policy. We welcome guests of all ages and strive to ensure clear communication regarding any additional charges that may apply. It is regrettable that there was a misunderstanding in this case. We appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention and assure you that we will review our policy and communication to prevent such occurrences in the future. Additionally, we understand that the level of service you experienced from our staff did not align with the high standards we set for ourselves. We are taking your feedback seriously and will address it with our team to ensure that we continue to provide the quality of service our guests expect and deserve. We look forward to welcoming you very soon. Best regards, Jurgen Van der Haegen, General Manager

Nice room, but irritating that the fridge was emptied during cleaning of the room between the two days I stayed and all of my private food disappeared. More irritating that the hotel reception did nothing when I confronted them about the situation.

Our team takes great pride in providing comfortable accommodations and a welcoming atmosphere for all our guests.

I often travel to Brussels and stay in the Novotel Grand Place whenever possible. The location is great, a 5min walk from Gare Centrale and 5min to Grand Place. The hotel is very good: Nice rooms, great breakfast area, nice bar, etc. This time I had a room with a window oriented towards the street and it was a bit noisy (I like keeping the window open during the night), mainly because of some people screaming a few times in the night. That was the only slight annoyance, everything else was really very good!

Dear Markus, Thank you for taking the time to share your review. It's heartening to hear that your stay with us was largely enjoyable. We are delighted that you found our rooms comfortable and our breakfast area to your satisfaction. Our team takes pride in providing a welcoming atmosphere and top-notch facilities for our guests. However, we regret to hear that there was some disturbance from the street noise. Our central location does indeed offer the convenience of proximity to Brussels' attractions, but this can sometimes come with the vibrancy of city sounds. We understand how important a restful night's sleep is, especially when traveling for business. Finally, we are pleased that the bar met your expectations, providing a relaxing environment to unwind after a busy day. The proximity to the Grand Place and Gare Centrale is one of the aspects our guests appreciate the most, and we are glad you found this beneficial during your stay. We hope we will have the opportunity to see you again in the future. Best regards, Jurgen Van der Haegen, General Manager

Dear Guest, Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We are delighted that you appreciated our hotel's location, conveniently situated just a stone's throw from the iconic Grand-Place and the vibrant city centre at your doorstep.

Our guests' comfort is of utmost importance to us, and we offer our sincere apologies if these aspects of your stay fell short of expectations. We appreciate your candid feedback as it helps us identify areas where we can improve. Moreover, we note your comment on the separate toilet facilities and understand that this design may not be to everyone’s preference. Our aim is to provide a comfortable and convenient environment for all our guests, and we will certainly take your observations into consideration. We hope you were able to enjoy the diverse amenities and services offered by our hotel, such as the gourmet bar and restaurant, the modern and comfortable rooms, and our rich buffet breakfast. While we understand that the room size and noise levels were a concern for you, we trust that the strategic location and the range of facilities available added value to your stay. We hope we will have the opportunity to see you again in the future. Best regards, Jurgen Van der Haegen, General Manager
