The Hotel
All was fine but €34 for breakfast struck me as extortionate. The coffee maker in my room wasn’t working so that left this addict with a problem!

Cardo Brussels, Autograph Collection
Room cleaning is very random, during 4 nights stay I only got room clean once, and the last day stay I put on dnd and room cleaner slamming on the door at 9am asking if room clean is needed There’s no such bad room cleaning service I have ever been through

Hilton Brussels Grand Place
Great location in old town. The hotel is generally lovely and you can tell they have put the effort into the lobby. The rooms were nice but not as nice as other Hiltons. Restaurant and bar really good
