Hotel terbaik di Sint-Joost-ten-Node

Satisfait

I spent a couple of nights in this hotel and to my surprise the atmosphere matches the (visual) story the website tells. It's a relief compared to many other hotels I've stayed in. It's almost as if you're in some classy exotic holiday hotel. The Botanic gardens right outside the hotel make up for the lack of atmosphere of the area... although the location very near the North train station is very convenient. The informally clothed staff are young, very friendly and energetic. The bar at the top floor of the hotel is a nice surprise! One of the Barista guys went out of his way to tell me about many details of the hotel and its philosophy, gave tips of where to go and what to see... all the while busy preparing mean coffees. (Scruffy beard, earring... Petey?) If you need to stay in Brussels for business (or pleasure of course) I can only imagine it must be a relief that some hotel chains do understand how to make you feel at home. (I'm regretting now not stealing the nice mug from the room!)

We booked several rooms for a group and in general the hotel and the rooms looked amazing but sadly that was just the looks. The beds are way too soft, the lights are not working properly: you cannot turn on the lights in the bathroom if the lights in the room are not on. Plus the lights turn on and off whenever they like and without any reason. Sometimes you cannot just turn them on. The water is also like this: you either shower with boiling water or ice cold water, there is nothing in between. I would definitely not recommend this hotel and probably the three stars are like two…

The only reason it deserves a star is because the staff was helpful when you asked them something and the rooms are incredibly spacious, other than that, avoid at all cost. Broken aircon, broken tiles in the bathroom that stick to your feet, horrible beds, only 2 small lights in the whole room worked, I could see the sewage from the toilet above me, ... On top of that, it's location moght appear safe at first being right next to the police station, but they deal ***** right in front of it. It's a smelly neighborhood, I've seen someone sh*t against a wall 50m from the hotel, ... Brussels is a horrible place to begin with but this made my opinion even worse. The rooms where adequately cleaned, but the staff can only do ao much with a completely worn out place. The 'hair dryer' they advertise with is a hand dryer as seen in public toilets, nothing useable. My colleague couldn't even get in his toilet at first as the lock was broken. Another weird things was that on the 3rd day, I suddenly had a 3rd bed in my room, most likely preparation for the next week, but a very odd feeling to experience, as if they invaded my privacy. Should've taken pictures, but only have 2 videos I sent to the office.

Sara and Antonio were true professionals with Great Customer service skills. They introduced us and our friends to some of the best cocktails and even provided some great travel tips in Brussels. A great visit all together and truly appreciate them making our visit a fun and memorable one.

Hotel Siru is bijzonder goed gelegen voor wie in de kantoren rond het Noord-station moet zijn of voor wie Brussel wil verkennen. De toegangsdeur is defect en dus moet men binnengaan via het hotel ernaast. De mensen aan het onthaal zijn vriendelijk en behulpzaam. De lift is klein en verouderd. In de traphal is de signalisatie onduidelijk… De kamer is op zich ok: klein en net, maar ook met een degelijk bed, bureautje, stopcontacten en USB-poorten voor bv. het opladen van een gsm, grote kast. De WiFi-verbinding is slecht en valt geregeld uit. Het verduisteringsgordijn is net te klein waardoor je de kamer eigenlijk niet kan verduisteren. Op de deur zitten vieze lijmsporen en een evacuatieplan ontbreekt. Er is koffie en water op de kamer. De badkamer met toilet, lavabo en douche is ook klein. Er zijn handdoeken, zeepjes enz. De douche loopt echter nauwelijks tot niet door en is afgeboord met gladde tegeltjes met vervuilde voegen (w.o. ook schimmels). Ook het toilet spoelt moeilijk door. Jammer genoeg is er ‘s nachts heel veel lawaai: straatlawaai vanop het plein, maar ook veel storende geluiden uit de bovenliggende badkamers en douches. Ik vermoed dat hier ook nogal wat mensen logeren die naar de luchthaven moeten want vanaf 4.30 u. hoor je mensen de kamer en de gang verlaten…. Vaak met slaande deuren. Het ontbijt is ok: goede koffie (maar slechts een machine…) en fruitsap, voldoende keuze aan brood en beleg, roerei, worstjes, kaas, charcuterie en zelfs fruitsla. Als het druk is, worden de tafels echter niet vlug genoeg afgeruimd waardoor je vaak aan een tafeltje moet zitten waarop de kruimels, vuile kopjes en bestek van vroegere gasten bleven staan. Ik kan dit hotel m.a.w. niet aanbevelen. Het aantal negatieve punten is nl. te groot. En dus zijn prijs en geboden kwaliteit zeker niet in evenwicht. Hier kom ik alvast niet meer terug.

Just 10’ away from the city Center . A decent hotel, clean not very spacious but one of the few in Europe where I had a balcony. Hence the 4 stars. Easy check in and check out. Breakfast wasn’t offered for the price I paid but in general it was a value for money stay
