Loved everything about this hotel especially the cool design and great location. Interiors are modern and minimal which I love, the lobby area is relaxing and has coffee available all day with 24/7 honesty bar. Our room was spacious, had lovely big windows with street view, big comfy bed and great shower. The basement spa was a treat with sauna and small pool which we had to ourselves before a late breakfast on Sunday morning. Breakfast is served until 11am on the weekend and check-out is 12pm. The location is great, in a quiet street within lovely Sablon area which is a nice change from Grand Place vibe. Nearby we enjoyed coffee at Kafei Korner, brunch at Poz and had excellent dinner in Venezuelan restaurant Caroni very close to hotel. Its also convenient and walkable to the centre and the art galleries (tho beware the galleries are closed on Mondays).

Good hotel but the room smell!

Good hotel walking distance away from many tourist attractions. Staff very nice and friendly. Difficult to park the car if you come with one here. Unfortunately our duplex room had terrible smell seemingly every time we flushed the toilet upstairs. We had tough time with smell and staff spraying refreshers and alcohol sprays didn’t remove the smell.

This is indeed a boutique hotel. Located in a nice area, conveniently close to all major attractions and restaurants. Lovely entrance area with sculptures, books, free coffee. Friendly and efficient staff. Very good breakfast. A bonus is a small but sufficient swimming pool and sauna. Overall, nice place to stay in and very good value hotel.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The family room was perfect for our family of 4 (two teenagers). We had connecting rooms with 2 full bathrooms. The AC worked great and beds were comfortable. The free iced tea and coffee in the lobby was much appreciated. We used the pay bar as well which was convenient. It is a great location and we could walk to Grand Place, the Central train station and restaurants and bakeries. I highly recommend this hotel.

We stayed at this hotel for a couple days based on proximity to the Grand Place and restaurants. We were a family of four, and we booked the two-level family room. Pros: Our room was ready early when we arrived. The two level family room with the spiral staircase was more than enough space for us and our two teenagers. The lower level has a second toilet, which was nice and unexpected. The person who checked us in was very helpful in helping us identify activities. The bed was comfortable. It's a 5ish minute walk to the Grand Place with tons of restaurants. Cons: There isn't much else on the street the hotel is on. The pathway that leads toward the shops and restaurants closes at night and you have to walk uphill around the block to get to the hotel if you come back later. We asked for a van to take us to the train station but they only called for a regular cab. Our suitcases and things didn't really fit and the driver was visibly frustrated. He was slamming the trunk and went into the hotel to speak to the staff. We ended up having one person sit up front holding a suitcase on his lap. Then, when we got to the train station he said he didn't take cards and only cash. We only had American money so he took that. This wasn't the best end to our trip but it wasn't necessarily the hotel's fault. I did point out that we'd asked for a van, knowing we had a lot of luggage, and they said we only see you asked for a cab.

I really liked the hotel , it was very stylish modern and had amenities. Unfortunately the stay ended on a negative as the day I was to leave, my sleep was interrupted due to another guest who was drunk, sick and had been sick right outside my door. She has been making lots of noise and this was extremely distressing. I had to rush to reception to find staff to help her at 4am. It was very concerning to me that no staff at the hotel had noticed this.
