I usually am not that much the complaining type but this hotel is just unrealisticly horrible!
The price of the hotel is compairable to any good Intercontinental hotel, but the service, the srurroundings, the room everything is just terrible! :(
No pluses here.
Minuses:
Unreasobly EXPENSIVE!
Prostitues near the hotel - unappealing!
Food is nothing good
The person from the reception is the same as the one that serves the food....
You have to proove to the night reception shift that you are really staing in the hotel and this trough the locked door after you have waited more then 5 minutes for the reception guy to come to you.
The room was SMALL, if you ever visited hotels like Formulle well it is smaller.
In general unappealing hotel.
The "lobby" is just part of the cafeteria which in general looks like a school cantina with a bar.
Internet is available.....only in the "lobby"
Clenliness is not good, I woulnd't touch anything unless I really have to do so.

The whole thing looks like a hotel where you sleep overnight after you have hired one of the prostitues outside.
My reccomendation FIND ANOTHER HOTEL!

Location was good, 10 min walk from North Station. 10 min walk to Bourse area and all the great selection of bars and restaurants. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Room was a good size, clean and the bathroom was good too.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We had a room at the back so no traffic noise, and it was an adequate size for the two of us. The hotel is in a good location for sightseeing, being a comfortable walking distance from the Grande Place and St Catherine's Place (where the Winter Fair was on), and very close to the Rogier metro station.

I was visiting Brussels for an educational trip with a group of 12 people last September. We stayed in Brussels for 5 days and our university had chosen us this hotel Belmont. I have to say when we first arrived to the hotel I didn't think it was so bad. The location was ok... BUT. First the staff wasn't really friendly and co-operative. Later we found out that the street in which the hotel is located is considered rather dangerous (lots of homeless people and drug addicts). Second the rooms and hallways we're awful! The smell was terrible (like an old house that has mould) the hallways weren't wide enough and the carpets were dirty... In the room smelled the same and in the bathroom you could actually see mould on the wall!And now, the worst thing ever.. One of our group found bedbugs in their room one night and they went to the reception to demand a new room immediatelly. Well, the receptionist gave them a new room and told that the bugs will be taken care of and that they won't sell the room for the next 2 days because of that.. And my oh my, next day a new customer comes to the hotel and happens to be in the same elevator with some of our group and he had the key(the keys in Belmont are old fashioned and they have the room number in them) to the room that had those bugs! If the hotel had even taken care of the bug problem properly it would have been not so bad but that they lie and don't take the problem seriously is unforgiveable! I do not recommend this hotel to anybody!
