The Brussels metro is very easy to navigate. They have lots of agents who speak English and are very helpful. So, venture out of the city center and see it all!

Awesome

If I have to nitpick, I would say that I felt a bit rushed at breakfast due to the waiter cleaning my table while I was still drinking my coffee and was considering a second going at the gorgeous breakfast buffet. But again, that's nitpicking, because I simply could have continued my breakfast and take another table.

This is not a tip but more of warning; the hotel is in walking distance of "Rue des bouchers", the (in)famous little strip of restaurants. It looks cute but beware because a lot of these restaurants will lure you in with specials which all of a sudden become unavailable once you're sitting at your table.

Great location

The hotel is in a very good location, near one of the famous "passages" of the city. Water faucet and sink had issues -- they were however resolved.

Comfortable, clean and helpful

My husband and I loved our stay at the Scandic! All staff was very helpful, our room was clean (not huge, but we didn't spend much time there do it was fine, and as expected for a European hotel. The location is amazing- blocks from the train station (even w big rolling suitcases) and RIGHT in the middle of everything you want to see in Brussels. There is a locked baggage room available if you need to drop off bags before checkin, or are wandering for awhile after checkout. Free wifi, breakfast (good, very European style)... Just stay here. Trust me. :)

Great location Great Stay

The Scandic Hotel is literally a 5 minute walk to Grand Central Station; you can grab a train or the metro from Crand Central. The breakfast was so good and the staff was very friendly. I was very happy here.

Good stay

Short walk to Grand Place. Very close to Central Station (direct Train to airport Zaventem, Metro). My room had a window into the "lobby", so no fresh air possible but also no noise from the street. Rooms small but comfortable with all I need.

Very good experience. My room

Very good experience. My room was not to the street and therefore it was quiet enough. Breakfast buffet excellent. Location best if you come to center by train (recommendable).
