“Five-star luxury in the city’s best location with restful, classic-contemporary rooms, a choice of dining areas and tip-top service - including concierges who know all the city’s best secrets. Refined, classic, indulgent.”

Hotel review

It would be hard to be more central than this luxury hotel, opposite one side of the city's famous Hotel de Ville, and with the glorious Grand-Place stepping distance away. Part of the Rocco Forte group, it has all the hallmarks you'd expect at this five-star level: concierge service, clubby but contemporary bar with boxy sofas in warm and soothing shades, and a classy restaurant, Bocconi, with a modern Italian menu and Italian styling (even down to the glasses and china). Generous and comfortable rooms have a light contemporary-classic touch with the odd antique to give individuality, and a fun framed 'Tin-Tin and Snowy' cartoon in the bathrooms, to remind you're in the home city of the famous artist, Hergé. Dine in Bocconi, or more casually in the bar; the latter has live jazz at weekends. Service is first class, and the concierges are an invaluable source of information on both the classic and more off-beat sides of the city.
