We went to Brussels for a long weekend travelling from London on Eurostar. This is a really nice hotel. Our room was clean, comfortable and warm. Oh and the hot/cold water flow in the shower was fine once you had a fiddle with the taps to get it to the temperature you wanted it stayed constant with a good steady... more

I spent just one night here, on my own, and that was more than enough. The service was very poor, with snide and superior reception staff. The room was cold and dirty and the bed uncomfortable. The shower was woefully inadequate - a dribble of water with wildy fluctuating temperature control Breakfast was nice enough, though tagain the service was... more

I stayed at the Jolly for 4 nights around New Years. One of the drawbacks of booking a hotel in city one has never visited is that one never knows the layout of the city. Brussels is big and has lower and upper portions. Fortunately, a friend from there recommended the Jolly. This is a genteel hotel, slightly older, cerrtainly... more

We stayed at the Jolly 6 nights over a week in early October. It's a comfortable hotel, though the rooms are nothing spectacular even at the 150 Euro conference rate (including breakfast - always ask whether it is included in your rate) that I received at the first part of our stay (we wound up paying 174 Euros on our... more

We stayed there for just one night in a junior suite for 3, which was very spacious and had plenty of closet space. Big renovated bathroom/shower and a separate powder room. Room itself was decorated in traditional style and needs some updating, otherwise very comfortable and clean. Free internet access in the business centre was much appreciated. Breakfast not included,... more

The breakfast buffet is not to be missed. Appreciated the free internet service. The rooms aren't fancy, but it's nice to have a minibar in the room. This hotel is in a perfect location in Brussels, a fabulous part of town but away from the uber touristy areas as well as the uber expensive Avenue Louise just a couple of... more

I had a night to stay in Brussels before flying back to Canada. I followed Rick Steves' advice (regarding hotels in the summer in Brussels) and didn't book anything in advance and just showed up at the Tourist Info at the Grande Place. What they do is ask you how many stars... I'd thought I'd go for more and see...... more

I think I'll do this in 2 stages, first the good The location was really good, the square that the hotel is set on is lovely, with lots of fantastic chocolate shops, art galleries, antique shops and a few bars and restaurants. It is approximately 5/10 minutes walk to the Grand Place.. The hotel is adequate for a short stay.... more

Having stayed at a Jolly hotel in Amsterdam where the service was poor, we were a little apprehensive about how the Grand Sablon might turn out. We needn't have worried - it was much better. The service was very good, most of the staff being very kind and helpful. Despite the rather tasteless old-fashioned decor, the room was very comfortable,... more
