“A chic and contemporary hotel tucked down a quiet street minutes from the smart shops and cafes of Place du Grand Sablon. Rooms are minimalist cool with bright white walls, sharp lines and plenty of light. An indoor pool and honesty bar are a real plus.”

Hotel review

On a narrow, anonymous-looking road of dull offices, just off Place du Grand Sablon, this hotel is both unexpected and surprisingly cool and contemporary, with a sweeping open-plan lobby full of modern art and sculptures. Rooms are light and minimalist - white floors and walls, big windows, open shelving - with shots of colour in rugs and lampshades. Bathrooms are crisp and modern, though some can be short on storage space. The duplex suites, with their spiral staircase to a mezzanine bedroom, are fun and cosy. Well-placed for the big museums and galleries, and around a 10-minute walk from the Grand Place, it's a good choice if you want somewhere central but quiet. And there's a help-yourself bar, too.

9Hotel Sablon

9Hotel Sablon is a member of a small chain of 'lifestyle hotels' based in Paris and trades on its intimate scale and refreshingly vibrant yet coolly understated design panache. “A place of inspiration and creation”, suggests the hotel, and it’s a fair claim.
