Description

Royal Hotel in Brussels is a 1-star property offering a wide range of room types, from Economy Single rooms to Deluxe and Grand rooms, including family and quadruple options. The hotel provides basic services such as 24-hour front desk, WiFi, a restaurant with buffet options, and concierge service. Despite the variety in accommodations, guest feedback indicates significant issues with cleanliness and maintenance. Rooms often feature old or damaged fixtures, and some guests noted mold and unpleasant odors. The hotel operates without an elevator, and staircases are narrow and poorly lit, which may pose challenges for travelers with heavy luggage. While service is rated low overall, some guests found the staff friendly and helpful. Pets are not allowed, children cannot stay, and extra beds can be added for a fee. The property is suitable for adults seeking budget accommodation close to central Brussels but may not meet higher comfort expectations.

Mouldy, smelly, filthy, broken... I have not a single good word to describe the experience.
14.04.2026 Guest
Decent for a solo traveler and only 1 night, good location
08.04.2026 Guest
The cleanliness was questionable, and the bed was very uncomfortable. The light fixtures were in poor condition, and the curtains were dirty and damaged. The only upside was the location...
21.11.2025 Guest
A small inn, not a hotel.
05.11.2025 Guest
Everything is great! And the best locations are nearby.
14.10.2025 Guest
The location is good
But the room is not clean
10.09.2025 Guest
The location was excellent, just one subway stop from Brussels North Station. However, the stairs were narrow, making it inconvenient with large suitcases.
12.06.2025 Guest
A series of treacherous staircases up to the room, some of them without lighting. No soap, gel or shampoo. One towel. Bed had no bedstead and was not flush against the wall, so no head support. No light switch by the bed.
03.06.2025 Guest
The stairs are too narrow, and the bathroom is too small, especially the sink.
28.05.2025 Guest
Shower has no hot water.Not advisable for travellers with luggage as there is no lift and the staircase is too narrow.
