Brussels can be a nightmare when you arrive at a "wrong date" - that was why I ended up at this poor hotel booked through www.hotels.nl. It is my worst experience so fare. On top I was invoiced Euro 150 for one night (normal price Euro 45). I survived but I am still suffering!!!

I was alone so it was OK.

The area is an old area, inhabited by emigrants.

Infactionality is high, a car was broke in the middle of day in front of the hotel. I had no problems, even if I came back later.

The breakfast is a joke, the staff is with no manners, etc.

everything was too small, the double bed was actually for one person and the lift was big enough for one baggage!! you cannot find the breakfast room without going upstairs and downstairs following only the smell because there are not posters or signs! the staff come from India I think and it is very friendly but they could work better and clean rooms and corridor where you can find toilets, bottles or papers!

La Potiniere Hotel Brussels

Booked through Rates To Go (part of HotelClub)

When I booked this hotel online my estimated time of arrival was Midnight 03-Dec.
Due to travel problems I arrived at 6am 04-Dec.
When I arrived the hotel had cancelled my reservation and given my room to someone else.

They could not even bothered to try to find me another hotel.

I started my stay in Brussels on the streets of a strange city, in the freezing cold looking for a hotel at 6 in the morning after a 14 hour coach hour journey.

Having survived and returned to England I will be consulting solicitors.
