Stepping into this classic hotel, you might think you're boarding the Orient Express. The hotel, built in 1895, exudes belle epoque style and provides impeccable service.

Even if you're not staying here, the hotel is worth a visit on its own account. An ornate, marble-and-gilt interior distinguishes this late-19th-century hotel several blocks from the Grand-Place, intimating Victorian elegance without rejecting the convenience of modern amenities. Soaring ceilings, p...

Incredible service, hardly credible room - user review
Beautiful hotel, great location, with an incredibly helpful staff. But a quality hotel without air conditioned room come on. They did give us an ice powered device that converted electricity into noise. Leaving the window open invited large number of bug bites. Rooms were large. If you can be guaran...

Threadbare, not maintained - user review
I wish I had booked someplace else. I found the hotel tired, worn out, and thread bare. Old is only a virtue if the hotel is well maintained. If the general state of decline was not enough, the breakfast was the nail in the coffin. There was a deadly pall over the dining area, strange assortment of ...

Old historic hotel could use upgrading - user review
The lobby and public areas on the main floor are exquisite with an old world feel. We had a luxury room and it felt more like we were staying at a generic 3 star business hotel. Granted the hotel is old, but they could update the bedding, lighting, and overall warmth of the rooms. The outside cafe, ...

Old World Charm, New World Connectivity - user review
The Metropole Hotel opened in 1895 and still maintains that old world charm, yet in 2006 has the connectivity we need. The lobby is like a palace ... beautiful, full of marble, and quite opulent.

Belgium hospitality - user review
The Metropole was a grand old hotel which lived up to our expectations. Although I found the staff efficient they were not warm and freindly. Upon arrival from a transatlantic flight the front desk advised we were getting an upgrade in room. We were then sent to the worst diniest room in the hotel w...

An excellent value for a nostalgic look at Brussels - user review
I think the previous review was most unfair (and most unkind) and I sometimes wonder whether there is much editorial control over what is written here. The problem with this hotel is simply that 5 stars is top of the charts in most measurements. And I think 5 stars is a bit of a stretch. And if you ...
