Aris Grand Place Hotel Overview
Tucked away on Grasmarkt, just a stone’s throw from the heart of Brussels, the Aris Grand Place Hotel is a charming three-star hideaway that’s earned an impressive 8.6 rating. Honestly, the first thing that struck me about this place was its warm, welcoming vibe – you know, the kind that makes you feel instantly at home. The staff greeted me with genuine smiles, and the lobby’s tasteful decor, with its plush seating and tasteful artwork, set a cozy tone.
What makes Aris Grand Place Hotel stand out, though, is its location. You’re literally minutes from the iconic Grand Place – I mean, you can practically hear the city’s heartbeat from your room. The hotel’s address, Grasmarkt 78-80, is in the thick of things, surrounded by the city’s historic charm and modern allure. If you’re a foodie, you’ll love the nearby streets, like Hoogstraat and Kleine Zavel, where local flavors and international cuisines collide. The hustle and bustle of the city center can get a bit noisy, but the hotel’s soundproofing is pretty solid, so you can enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep.
The check-in process was smooth, and the staff were incredibly helpful, offering insider tips on where to grab the best waffles and which pubs to hit for live music. The rooms are comfortable, with modern amenities and a touch of Belgian flair. You know, the kind of place where you can kick back with a cup of coffee and watch the world go by from your window. The hotel’s rating is well-deserved, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a base in Brussels that’s both convenient and cozy.
In terms of practicalities, parking can be a bit of a challenge in this part of the city, but the hotel offers a secure garage, which is a lifesaver. The check-in experience was quick, and the staff were attentive without being intrusive. The hotel is a bit quieter during the weekdays, which was perfect for me as I could enjoy the city’s sights without the weekend crowds. All in all, the Aris Grand Place Hotel is a gem – a place where you can experience the best of Brussels without sacrificing comfort or convenience.
To book a hotel in Brussels during the European Union summit meetings, visitors should make reservations well in advance as the city attracts diplomats and business travelers from around the world.

Location was excellent, right in the heart of the capital. The staff was friendly and very helpful. Love the braided. Really good value for money.
Jayne from United Kingdom (9/10)
Hotel was in an ideal location to access all areas of Brussels and it was only a few minutes walk from Brussels Central train station. The hotel staff were very friendly, helpful, welcoming and informative. Beds were very comfortable as were the pillows. The room was spotlessly clean.

Clean and tidy
Breakfast was lovely
The hotel reception is at the back of the coffee shop, so just walk through.
We did arrive early, but the lovely staff checked us in and we left our luggage and went off exploring until our room was ready.
Lots to see and all within walking distance, we’d recommend a good pair of comfy shoes!Alison from United Kingdom (8/10)

Great hotel in a fantastic location, just off Grand Place and near everything. Hotel was kinda quirky with a cafe as the entrance but this did not bother us. Room was spacious and bed was comfortable
