The mock-medieval turreted facade and wood decor of this cheerful, family-run hotel suggest an antique hunting lodge. The friendly staff members are a collective goldmine of useful knowledge about Brussels. Guest rooms are traditionally decorated in florals and pastels; the well-heated, old-fashioned breakfast room is a lovely place to start the day, especially on cold mornings. Try to get a back-facing room as the front looks out over a main road. The hotel is well connected to central Brussels by tram and street networks. Pros: the hotel has more character than major chains. Cons: it is not very centrally located, no in-room minibar.
