7.0/10

My stay at Novotel Brussels City Centre was quite decent. The central location made it easy to explore the city, though the hotel itself felt more like a basic motel rather than a true city hotel. The cleanliness of the rooms and comfort of the beds enhanced my experience, but a few details, like the missing amenities and the breakfast options, could use improvement.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms were spacious, clean, and bright, which was a relief. However, I did notice that some furnishings seemed a bit basic and worn out, which detracted from the overall experience.

Service

6.0

Service at the hotel was hit or miss. While some staff were knowledgeable and friendly, I had a few interactions that felt rushed and lacking in warmth, particularly when asking for basic assistance.

Location

The location was excellent, with quick access to the city center and attractions like the Grand Place. It was quite convenient, especially for exploring the Christmas markets nearby.

Dining

Breakfast had a fair variety, but I found that many items were cold and lacked quality. I had hoped for more local Belgian options rather than fast food or burger joints nearby.

Facilities

While the facilities like the pool and fitness center were well-maintained, I didn't find many additional features to enhance my stay. The bar was a nice spot to unwind, though the menu was limited.

My stay at Novotel Brussels City Centre was mixed. The central location made exploring the city easy, and the spacious room provided a comfortable base.

Additionally, the service had its frustrations, particularly during check-out, which affected my overall experience. 😅

My stay at Novotel Brussels City Centre was generally good, especially due to the perfect location and spacious rooms. However, I had a concerning experience with the reception staff regarding a theft incident which really impacted my overall impression. The breakfast offered a variety of tasty options, but it felt a bit pricey given the limited choice of pastries in the 'city breakfast' deal.
