The Scandic Hotel Grand Place is on a quiet side street, just a few minutes from Brussels' iconic Grand'Place and 100 meters from the Cathedral. Service was pleasant, the included breakfast included a broad array of choices, and it was very fairly priced. If you are arriving at Central Station, it is just a short walk downhill to the hotel.... More

A single one night stay in Brussels. Hotel is at a good location! It is a short walk from Grand Place (5-10 min) and close to the street where you can eat the best in Brussels. Staff is excellent. Polite, friendly and helpful. They can help you in every issue. Breakfast is tasty and considerably better for any 3 star... More

As many others have noted, the biggest plus point for this property is its location. Its within easy walking distance from the grand place, train station, mannekan pis,cathedral ...everything else worthwhile in Brussels. The rooms are just about ok, and in general look very worn out. The reception staff did not appear particularly knowledgeable when inquired about travel direction to... More

Location is the greatest asset of this hotel - it's only few minutes walk to Central Station. While hotels in Brussels are in general pricy, you might find rather cheap offers here. Breakfast is tasty as in Scandic hotels usually. Staff at reception was friedly and helpful. On the downside, hotel rooms are indeed small and gloomy, at least those... More

The hotel has a very good location close to the Central station and the train to the airport and many other destinations. It is also close to restaurants and the shopping street Rue Neuve. The hotel itself is not a fantastic place. The rooms are small and dark, the restaurant is not an inspiring place but the complimentary breakfast is... More

Hotel rooms are average but the location is so great that you should consider this as an option when in Brussels. Staff in the reception was extrelemely helpful and professional - they earn actually five stars. Breakfast was ok, typical Scandic style. We had a room facing inner yard and it was really quiet so we slept very well. Rooms... More

While nothing fancy, this hotel is in a great location. The hotel staff was friendly and extremely helpful when we ran into some airlines issues. Breakfast was plentiful. For a comfortable room to crash at the end of a day of sightseeing, this was perfect.

...but there are definitelly better ones in Brussels. It's advantage is the location. Staff is nice and helpful... What i liked the most were the breakfasts at this hotel....Though hotel equipment and rooms seem to be in need for update/renewal...if you're not picky, this hotel is not a bad choice

The only reason for giving this hotel a four star rating is its location - and a great breakfast. The rooms are avarages. When did get a room facing the street - there is only one word to dicribe this - noise... When going back to Brussels, I would consider one of the other hotels in the same area -... More
