Novotel Brussels Centre Midi Station 4 yıldız

We stayed four nights. The rooms were: large; had functional bathrooms; were cleaned really well daily; located a safe short walk from the main station; great value; and, had very helpful front desk staff. If you want to explore Belgium by train, this hotel is a great base.

I’ve stayed in quite a few hotels but won’t return to this one. First impression of the room, small and poorly lite. Television signal means you only hear 1 in 3 words and the shower has the strength of a 95 year old. Breakfast almost cold with a medium amount of choice. Smallest bar I’ve ever seen in a hotel only made worse when I ordered a vodka and coke and was told we don’t do ice. How did this place get a star?

I just stayed a night here, and although I speak French and I know the dodgy area, I was a little surprised that it's quite pricey to book at short notice in early summer. Nice bathroom, television, a fridge and kettle is supplied, but the same view over the station as cheaper options on the same road.

The hotel is conveniently located at walking distance from the South station. My room was modern, spacious and clean. The bed was excellent and the air conditioning was working with not too much noise (outside temperature was tropical). Although I did not use the restaurant, it is very convenient that the hotel does have a restaurant. One thing was strange. As usual, the TV set has loads of channels but no Flemish / Dutch speaking channels, which surprised me since Brussels is supposed to be bilingual.

Really great stay at this very pleasant and nicely located hotel. We used this as our base having travelled across on Eurostar. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from the station. Like all European main stations it’s a bit seedy around the adjacent area but we felt safe. The MIDI station also has an amazing array of shops to hand if you just want a quick snack or get breakfast while on the move. Hotel was clean and the air con was amazing given this was two of those baking 38degree days! Only minor criticisms were the towels were very small for a modern hotel, the maid service is often late (although we were on top floor so perhaps last!) and breakfast very expensive (but see earlier comment) - none of which affected my scoring.
