Alicia’s Duplex European Quarter Overview

You know what, when I first walked into Alicia’s Duplex European Quarter in Brussels, I was genuinely surprised. It’s tucked away on Chaussée Saint-Pierre, a bustling street in Etterbeek – not exactly the first place you’d expect to find a cozy 3-star hotel. Honestly, it’s got this homey vibe that you don’t often find in hotels, especially in a city like Brussels. The rating of 8 feels spot on, it’s not luxurious, but it’s got character.

The rooms are simple, but they’ve got everything you need. The bed was surprisingly comfortable, and the shower had great water pressure – a small detail, but one that matters when you’re traveling. The location is actually quite convenient; it’s a short stroll from the European Quarter, so if you’re in town for business or to see the sights, you’re in the right place. Just be prepared for a bit of noise, especially during rush hour – the city’s never really quiet, but it’s part of the charm.

What makes Alicia’s Duplex stand out is the personal touch. The staff are friendly and helpful, and they’ve got a knack for making you feel at home. They’ll give you insider tips on where to eat and what to see, which is invaluable if you’re not familiar with Brussels. The neighborhood itself is a mix of local shops and international businesses, so you get a real feel for the city’s melting pot of cultures.

I mean, if you’re looking for a place that’s a bit off the beaten path, but still close to the action, Alicia’s Duplex is a solid choice. It’s not going to blow you away with luxury, but it’s comfortable, affordable, and has a certain charm that you won’t find in the big chain hotels. You’ll find yourself coming back to this place, not just because it’s convenient, but because it feels like a home away from home in the heart of Brussels.

Reviews of Alicia’s Duplex European Quarter

  • Marco from Italy – 2 June 2025 (5/10)

    The position was ok and the apartment was clean

    What could be improved: The apartment is dangerous: you have the boiler inside the room, the stairs to the bottom floor are so steep and dangerous (you can't open the window btw, you can't phisically reach it), the bathroom is so small and in general everything doesn't look so safe. Don't go if you have children.

  • Nordine from France – 2 June 2025 (8/10)

    Bon rapport qualité/prix, très propre, les lits sont confortables. Je recommande
