European version of JW Marriott hotel, with similar beds, comforters, but not as much pillows! Rooms were fairly large even I had just a standard size one, but it was quite comfortable for the 2 evenings that I stayed for a conference.
Included in the room rate that the Conference arranged for was the hotel's breakfast buffet. It was standard Belgium styled buffet, above average in selection and quality. Really nice change, especially when it took me 21 hours of travel and having airline foods, and so I sleep in a comfy bed, and wake up to REAL food!
The conference facilities were really nice and what stood out was they refreshed the water after every break! Offered still water (non carbonated) and carbonated water for each pair of attendees in glass bottles. All side drinks were in glass bottles as well. The conference provided lunch was a nice selection of sandwiches, quiches, and salads, with finger sized eclairs - really nice.
First impressions very important. After check in, the very nice and personable front desk worker escorted me to my room, showed me all the features, and explained some of the hotel amenities along the way, gave me a contact number and wished me a nice stay. A nice personalized tough I thought. Check out was efficient with no wait. Housekeeping A+ with workers who made sure to greet you when you ran into them in the hallways.
I did not get to explore the area much, but it is located on Avenue Louise with a lot of higher end shops. But by walking just a block or so, there quite a mixture of other places, smaller stores, grocery stores, mini pharmacies, etc. But it is a bit away from the city center.
So a nice, solid place to stay, with nice service and would definitely stay again. read more
