Hotel Mirabeau - Brussels    Share

Great location, close to both the train station and the main sights

The worst hotel I've been in my life. The room was dirty, smelly from the toilet despite open windows, mould signs on walls and ceiling. Denied breakfast despite having passed four out at the moment of booking, absolutely unhelpful and rude staff, the only thing to save Is the location.

Reviews about the sub-stellar hotel made me apprehensive. It actually exceeded my expectations. It's a fine hotel for an inexpensive centrally located overnight, but not for a glamous getaway.

Our hosts in Brussels had booked two nights at this hotel for us, but when I called to confirm, a different person dealing with our booking said they couldn’t find our booking anywhere despite a payment being made to reserve our room. We got to the hotel hoping to sort it out in person, but the person at the counter just said he couldn’t find our booking and couldn’t be bothered helping out. He proceeded to go out for a smoke and talk to the lingering people around the hotel. The condition of the reception and the stairs does accurately reflect the pictures from the other reviews I read below. The only positive I saw out of this hotel was its location, thus the one star. Come at your own risk.

Very affordable no frills hotel close to the centre of Brussels. Easily within walking distance of Central & Midi railway stations. The area can be a little noisy at night, especially if your room faces onto the street. The front desk is staffed 24 hours a day by polite English speaking staff
