Hotel Metropole - Historic Art Deco landmark with French dining, classic cocktail bar, and central Brussels location

Dating from 1895, this 5-star Brussels hotel occupies a prime spot in the historic center, just steps from De Brouckère metro station with direct access to the European Commission. The property features the award-winning Alban Chambon restaurant specializing in French cuisine, while Cafe Metropole showcases premium brasserie dishes in an Art Nouveau setting with palm trees and red vinyl banquettes. Hotel Metropole's historic 1894 elevator leads to rooms equipped with flat-screen TVs, complimentary minibars restocked daily with Belgian beer, and bathrooms with tub-shower combinations. The Metropole maintains 18453 square feet of meeting space, a fitness center with cycles and weights, and a business center housed in antique wooden telephone booths. Located a 10-minute walk from Grand Place, the property sits near the Restaurant Zone around Place Sainte-Catherine and Rue de Flandre, with the Royal Museum of Fine Arts 1 mile away.

Pros

Cons

“The location is undeniably superb, a short walk from the Christmas markets and other attractions. It is an older property with spacious rooms and an ambiance that recalls a bygone era, complete with a historic elevator. The hotel's blend of character and convenience makes it a compelling choice for those seeking a classic Brussels experience.”
