Citybox Brussels Centre Louise
Good location but almost till 2:30 am in the morning many youngsters were shouting , talking loudly , making lot of noise on the street just below the room window so could not get good sleep and wish someone could have told them to lower the noise and windows should been sound proof

Cardo Brussels, Autograph Collection
As you would expect from a Marriott Autograph hotel - it was fantastic. Location is good for a short walk to the tourist area, and right next to the metro.
