I am staying at the Holiday Inn city Center in Brussels mid-July. Looking for information regarding the location and quality of this hotel. Thanks!<BR>

The best hotel if it' available is The Meridian which is right across the street from the train station and perfectly located to good sites. If I return, I'll definitely stay there again...clean and the best location if you're only there for a night or two and want to see as much as possible.Al

I agree with Al, but the name of the hotel is LeMeridian. Try to stay there if possible.

Le Meridien is a good hotel, but that doesn't answer the question about the Holiday Inn City Center. I believe you're talking about the Holiday Inn on Chaussee de Charleroi? It's near the Place Stephanie, a couple of minutes off the Avenue Louise, the premier shopping street in Brussels (along with the Blvd. de Waterloo). It's not near the biggest sights--i.e., the Grand'Place, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The Ixelles (Chatelain) is neigbhorhood about a 15 minute walk away is packed with interesting restaurants, some good shopping, and it's one of Brussels more popular residential areas. Parks, great outdoor food market Wednesday afternoons, etc.<BR>You can reach the Sablons area easily from your hotel by catching the #92 tram that goes right by. It's about a 5 minute ride to the Sablons, and from there you can walk down to the Grand'Place.<BR>It wouldn't be my first recommendation for a first trip to Brussels, but there's nothing wrong with it. Lots of tour groups stay there, FYI.<BR>BTilke (Brussels)

A certain level of quality should be assured due to its brand name.<BR><BR>Go to <BR><BR>http://www.basshotels.com/holiday-inn/<BR><BR>And do a search for Brussles, and have a look at the map.<BR><BR>It's not the most central.<BR><BR>__________________________________ ______<BR>My Brussles Photos<BR><BR>http://www.bangor.ac.uk/~fos007/bruss.htm
