Hostels in Brussels-Capital Region, Belgium

Solo female traveller. Spent 3 nights in a 6 bed dorm. Lockers and good bathroom facilities. Comfy beds and great amenities. Kitchen doesnt open until 9am which I find late but closes at 11pm. Good location just outside of the main tourist area so quiet. Plenty of local shops, cafes and bars within walking distance of a few minutes and as a solo traveller felt safe 10 to 15 minutes walking to main square. Really recommend this hostel.

The staff were incredibly friendly! The only downside was the lack of an elevator, but since it's only 4 floors maximum, it wasn't a problem. Getting there from the airport or central station late in the evening was also hassle-free. All the main attractions like Grand Place and Manneken Pis were just a 10-minute walk away. The location is absolutely perfect! Many thanks to the wonderful staff!

I did a late check-in. The reception is open 24 hours so I was able to check in with peace of mind. It was hard to work at night so as not to disturb other guests. There are no curtains for the beds. There is a bathroom and toilet in one room.

Good, clean, free breakfast. However there’s rule, where you can’t enter the room from 12-3pm because of housekeepers cleaning. So i can’t sleep/rest during those period. Need to get out.

Overall, the stay was not too bad. If not for some inconveniences, I would have rated this hostel better. First, the nearest Metro exit was under renovation. As a result, I need to detour quite a fair bit to get into the Metro station. It is ok without luggage, but with luggage, it is much more challenging with cobblestone road. Second, this is the first hostel which I paid for twin room and was not provided with towel. While my app stated that the towel is included, the receptionist told me that I need to pay to rent the towel. A bit disappointed. Thankfully, I have my own beach towel.

Although it's primarily a French-speaking place, I had no problem getting polite service in English. The ground floor has plenty of seating, so there's ample space even if you bring in dinner. The rooms are clean compared to other hostels in Brussels, and they have curtains, ensuring privacy. There's also a bar area at the reception, so it's a good option for those who forgot to have a beer but don't want to go out.

The location is a certain distance from the subway. A little closer to the bus and tram station. Why the eating place nearby is a bit deserted. Hygiene feels very general. The noise of cars coming and going outside sleeping at night is very noisy. The equipment is okay, each bed has a charging port and a bedside light. If you bring a lock yourself, there are also cabinets that can be locked. Breakfast is provided, which is pretty average, but you don’t have to go out and look for it again. The toilet and bathroom are separate, which is good.
