great location to visit the sights, business premier room was nice and clean. hotel itself is overrated at 5* more 3-4*. Service is 1* from Daniel at check in.

Booked the Royal Windsor for my partner for his birthday, because i forgot to mention that he was allergic to feather duvets and I did apologise when I arrived, Daniel without informing us checked us into a standard room. Which after we went to our room I came down and confronted him and he said thats what we booked for. After I stated that I had the invoice he confessed 'Oh so you did- but as you forgot to mention the allergy the best room is standard'. I then demanded he put us back into the room we paid for and just change the duvet and pillows to synthetic- not exactly difficult! Previous reviewers were right - they do make it seem like they are doing you a favour or are going out of their way. He also with an attitude asked 'Did you even request a cot for the child' from which I asked him to refer to the invoice.


would not recommend here for a nice stay for service, but def if you are wanting to see the sights.

The Royal Windsor is inexpensive and conveniently located minutes from the Grand Place and some of the best beer bars in the world. Unfortunately, it's also located across the street from a very noisy disco that operates from late night to mid-morning.
This raises two questions. First: how sturdy is your need to sleep after midnight? Can you plug ears, can you not care if you sleep or not, do you have your ambien or your headphones? Second: Disco? Are you serious? Who are these people?

Anyway, if you reserve here, be sure to ask for a room that doesn't face the street. If they don't have one, ask for Ambien or a table for an all-night card game.

The Royal Windsor's best feature is it's location, slap bang in the centre of Brussels, just minutes from the Grand Place and a short walk to 'museum hill'. Much of Brussels tourist attractions are just a short walk away.
The hotel itself would I guess be 3-4 star. We visited in January, a cold month in Belgium. Our room was lovely, warm, very masculine and with a very comfy bed. All dark woods, small but very cosy, especially in winter. While the street is noisy at night the double glazed windows were phenomenal, cutting out all the noise.
Staff were efficient but brusque who in a very 'French' way refused to understand my 'French' accent'.
There are two bars, one at the front and one at the back, the former never opened when we were there. The back bar, 'Chutneys' is ok and looks out on to the cobbled 'old town' streets but could do with a fireplace and a warmer atmosphere.
All in all I would recommend the Royal Windsor for a short sightseeing trip.

This is one of older hotels in Brussels but it has charm. The standard rooms rooms are adequately decorated and equipped. It is amazingly central if you want to be situated near the Grand Place and it is surprisingly peaceful for such a central location, although try to not to face the street. There are no views from any of the rooms anyway. The public areas are styled in a plush but classic style. It's not the cheapest hotel in Brussels and breakfast is expensive as always seems to be the case with good hotels these days.
