Set down your bags and relax at the luxurious Sofitel hotel.

Our guest reviews

Good stay with several issues though

Miquel Business - 5/22/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

The suite was really good and comfortable. However I had the following issues: The coffe machine was broken and even though I told it to the receptionist, no one did anything. The shower did not work really well. Hot water came in an out constantly. I also ordered for a bottle of water and I had to call again because at the first time no one brought it to my room.

Wonderful Customer Service

Anonymous Couples - 5/22/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Our stay was extended due to a positive covid test. Thankfully, hotel management (Herve Deniau, Executive Asst. Mgr., and Laurence Umulisa, Guest Relation & Duty Mgr.) was very responsive and supportive. They extended our stay without hesitation. The hotel is in an excellent location - lots of restaurants, a grocery store, and pharmacy are right outside the front door. The amenities are wonderful - robes, slippers, Nespresso machine, small refrigerator, Balmain bath products, fluffy towels. We would definitely stay here again.

Good stay, adequate breakfast

Anonymous Business - 5/21/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

As already said last time, like the location and the position. Rooms are quite small though and very spartan. You have what you need but you don’t have that “home” feeling.

Excellent hotel in great location

Conor Business - 5/21/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Stayed 3 nights, the hotel is top class, the staff are friendly, helpful and efficient. Breakfast was excellent. Location is perfect for work/business/ or travel.

Extremely well located! Staff very cheerful and very clean!

I very much enjoyed my stay in my comfy room and exquisite bathrobe and towels. Everything is neatly arranged and the room is very cozy. I’d love to come back again

Not good experience

K. Business - 5/19/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Customer Service via what's app is bad and slow. This hotel do not use Hermes amenities, which you can see the description in Accor application. Housekeeper opened my door when I am naked at 6 pm.

Markus Business - 5/17/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Nice hotel and a very good breakfast. There was a slight problem with the shower water temperature. It was constantly changing. Otherwise a very enjoyable stay.

Poor Covid protocol

Norman S. Couples - 5/9/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

On the last night of our Netherlands tour my wife and I tested positive for Covid. The manager informed us that we had to isolate in our room for 7 days but we could only stay for 2 days, then the hotel was full. The hotel made us online reservations at another hotel (without notifying them we were Covid positive) and after 2 days in the Sofitel we packed up and walked to another hotel. During isolation at the Sofitel, they did not offer to bring us any meals and we had no maid service or support from the hotel.

Dear Mr. S., I would like to thank you once more for staying at The Sofitel Brussels Europe and for taking the time to provide your feedback. I sincerely hope that you wife and yourself are completely recovered from the covid. As already explained in my reply to your feedback provided on TripAdvisor, I would like to apologize for the inconvenience faced during your stay. In additional with the feedback already provided I remain at your entire disposal for any further information or assistance and I do hope you will give us a chance to regain your trust. Kind regards, Laurence Umulisa Guest Relation Manager

definitely not worth the money and not what you would expect out of 5* Sofitel

Rafal Business - 5/7/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Staff in the hotel was really kind and helpful - despite limited possibilities. Other than that, I am really dissatisfied with the entire stay. Problems have started right at the beginning. 14:30 I have received a text saying that my room ready, 14:45 I have arrived to the hotel and found out that in fact it is not. Regardless of hotel's check-in at 15:00 - I had to wait till 15:30 until my room was ready. Wanting to make a deposit, I wanted to make a payment with AMEX but that was not possible which for a hotel serving so many business clients is really shocking. Staff is trying to cover it up with some temporary issues ongoing because of some updates happening but response from AMEX side is clear - the terminal does not support certain European protocols that would allow all cards to be accepted and it needs to be replaced Rooms at first sight are nice, clean and neat... But that is just the first sight. The sheets in my room were torn. You barely have 2 power sockets available (3 if you unplug the coffee machine). Equipment available is heavily outdated - nice to provide a speaker that you can connect your phone to, however what point does it make if you can only connect using 30-pin socket, which has been replaced by new, lightning 10 YEARS AGO? Also, majority of 5* hotels now provide you with a Smart TV. Fancy things that you could do connecting and controlling with your phone. Again - that is not the case in here.

Dear Mr. P., I would like to thank you once more for staying at The Sofitel Brussels Europe and for taking the time to provide your feedback. While I wish you had a better experience I can only apologize for the inconvenience faced during your stay. Please note that I developed all the points you listed in your Google's review. In additional with all information provided I remain at your entire disposal for any further information or assistance and I do hope you will give us a chance to regain your trust. Kind regards, Laurence Umulisa Guest Relation Manager

Good location, comfortable rooms

Christopher Business - 5/2/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

It was a good experience at this hotel. The WhatsApp chat function was a pleasant surprise. The rooms were generally comfortable but perhaps there were some minor things missing (no toothbrush provided, no TV guide, no room service menu). I could also hear sounds from the next room; sound proofing could be improved between adjoining rooms which are booked separately. Nevertheless these were minor issues and I would probably return in the future.

Dear Mr. K., First of all I would like to thank you for your stay at The Sofitel Brussels Europe and for your loyalty towards the Accor Group.

However I am sorry to learn that certain points did not met your expecation. Please note that the toorhbrush are available 24 hours a day upon request, the TV guide has been removed from the rooms as a result of a Management's decision and last but not least due to the covid, the room service menu is present in each room on the desk as a QR code. Please rest assure that I will share your comments with our team and Management. I am sure that this feedback will serve as an encouragement to all of our staff as we strive to continuously improve the quality of our services.

Particularly efficient back and front office staff

116olga Business - 4/25/2022 TripAdvisor review

Considering the number of times I've stayed at this hotel, I didn't think I could contribute anything new. However, since quality of service provided by the back office is often overlooked, I must express my appreciation for the efficiency and courtesy of the back office staff and their readiness to accommodate all requests, including last-minute reservation changes!

First time in Brussels after 25 months

medidam2022 Business - 4/7/2022 TripAdvisor review

Although I was very satisfied with room I was disappointed with the fact that pre-agreed (from WhatsApp communication directly with hotel) early check-in (already requested at reservation and pre-payment) was not implemented. In addition. despite full pre-payment of my stay and holding ALL silver card (with all my contact and payment details known) I was requested to provide my credit card to guarantee for eventual extras.
