Sofitel Brussels Europe

“Have a great stay at boutique hotel.”

Quiet. Walk right out to small suare, with lots of dinning options. And foodtruck tgat serves "best pommmes frites" in country. Don't miss the breakfast(include with my stay). The resident pastry chef makes the best cakes and bake goodies.The croissants--worldclass--are to die for. 😋

“Will come back to Brussels and to your hotel as soon as possible”

The desk staff mainly Dali the Italian/Belgium, Spanish gentleman were excellent ! Very knowledgeable, smart, kind Without mentioning the cleaning lady They made my stay dilatable, unforgettable, and very comfortable The breakfast was delicious and the staff also very friendly and polite

“Great Staff...”

Mr. Deniau. I must apologize for this late note being sent to you and your staff for our recent stay in Brussels Sofitel. Like anything, we had some hiccups with the hotel and staff upon our arrival. But I want this note to focus on the huge positives of those that we encountered during our week and the levels of service that surpass other Sofitel hotels that we have stayed in over the years and the one that we hold in highest honour (Munich). Morning Breakfast The morning staff (Breakfast) Adina Hamoro & Liliana Zarate; they don’t miss a beat. Their attention to detail, customer engagement is beyond approach and their staff follow them by ensuring all guests are well taken care of. The conversation, care and a sense of “Family” they show in the morning restaurant is over the top amazing. The whole week with these two made our vacation worthy of a return. Now the third wheel that complements the above two (2) ladies is Tina Balepe. One of your morning chefs. She has a grip and control on the meal area like no other and consistently produced quality morning meals and food suggestions. We were introduced to Tina by Liliana and from that moment forward, we were in very good hands and she did not disappoint us or the other guests. We had a list of places and activities we wanted to accomplish on our vacation, but felt more inclined to relax in the restaurant and enjoy our morning time with our new found family. These three (3) ladies and their staff and helpers elevated the service to another level that we have not experienced in all of our travels. Evening Restaurant The Evening Restaurant Manager; young, very well versed to handle any situation, all customers or individual requests. Anthony Ricciardi made our final evening and my Birthday supper probably one of the best I have ever had. He, the servers and the Chefs working that night had their hands full and the restaurant was very busy; but the service was second to none. Again his level of customer engagement was most notable; we enjoyed watching him take care of the patrons and being a part of that level of service. Hotel Bar. Now I must apologize for this. But the Gentlemen working the Main bar that night (British we believe). He introduced us to Anthony for our evening supper and we had spent a few nights having a drink in your bar and between his positive work ability, conversation and amazing customer service he also needed to be recognized for going above and beyond. Please apologize to him for us losing his name, we owe him a drink when we return. Mr. Deniau, the common theme and denominator for all of these staff members is solid work ethics, commitment to ensuring quality service and above all things making the guest/customer feel a great sense of family and just at ease in your hotel while having an amazing experience. Please convey to them our deepest Thank you for taking care of us and to know they all are at the top of their game in the Hospitality service. Until our next visit.

The hotel as the name suggests is in the European quarter of Brussels. It is situated on a large plaza of restaurants, Jourdanplein. It's a short 5-10 minute walk across the park to the European Parliament and that could or could not be convenient depending on where in Brussels you want to be. It is a 500m walk (up a smallish hill) to the nearest metro station and the narrow streets and heavy traffic make this the metro the best way to get around. The hotel is what you would expect from a Sofitel. There is a plaque on the wall - it opened in about 2006 (from memory!) and has not had a refresh since then. It doesn't feel at all tired but it is no longer the most modern. The rooms are comfortable and although their was a problem with our room, it was quickly rectified. There was nothing about the room itself that I could reasonably fault other than the speed of the wifi which was hard to use. Considering that this hotel would attract a number of business travelers, I trust this is a common complaint. The gym was underwhelming and looked like it was designed by someone who has never used a gym. We enjoyed the breakfast which was of good quality and variety. The hotel staff were consistently wonderful. I don't know if I would choose this hotel again. Not that there was anything wrong with it per se but the location wasn't good for us as tourists visiting Brussels, however it may be convenient for you.
