House of Mima Overview
The House of Mima, located at 5 Rue Doyen Boone in Etterbeek, Brussels, is a 4-star gem that’s actually got a lot going for it. I remember pulling up to it, and honestly, the first thing that struck me was how quiet the street was, which was a pleasant surprise considering we were just a stone’s throw from the bustling city center.
You know what, the rating of 9.2 is no fluke. The House of Mima really nails the balance between comfort and style. The rooms are spacious, and the decor is a mix of modern and cozy, with a touch of Belgian charm. I mean, the beds are so comfortable that you might not want to leave them, but trust me, you should. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful; they made check-in a breeze, and they were always ready with suggestions for local spots to check out, like the nearby Flagey Square, which is a local favorite.
The location is sort of a hidden gem. It’s not on the main drag, so you get a quieter experience, but it’s still close enough to walk to the European Parliament and the Atomium. Parking is a bit tricky, but the hotel offers a garage, which is a lifesaver in a city where parking can be a hassle. Noise levels are generally low, but during the summer months, when the city comes alive with festivals, you might catch a distant hum of celebration.
So, why should you care about the House of Mima? Well, if you’re looking for a place that feels like a home away from home, with a touch of luxury and a lot of heart, this is your spot. The attention to detail, from the soft linens to the complimentary breakfast spread, makes all the difference. It’s the kind of place where you can start your day with a stroll through the nearby Parc du Cinquantenaire and end it with a glass of Belgian beer in the cozy bar downstairs. It’s these small details that make the House of Mima more than just a hotel; it’s an experience.
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.

Reviews of House of Mima
Pascaline from Germany – 11 April 2025 (8/10)
Maison parfait pour les familles et petit groupe. Très propre, claire et agréable à vivre. Situation géographique idéale et rapport qualité prix imbattable.
Les moins : lits doubles de 140 cm seulement, couverture un peu juste pour deux, rideaux peu occultants dans la chambre au premier étage.Athina from Belgium – 29 March 2025 (10/10)
It is a great house! Clean and spacious. I 100% recommend it.
Anne-claire from France – 4 January 2025 (10/10)
Le logement est parfait pour un séjour en famille comme nous l'avons fait. Logement très propre, avec tout ce qu'il nous fallait, très bien situé pour pouvoir se balader même à pieds dans Bruxelles, supermarchés proches et restaurants proches également. Nous avons même eu droit à une bonne bouteille de Prosecco et des chocolats de la part de la propriétaire pour cette période de fin d'année, ce qui a été très apprécié par l'ensemble de la famille. Si nous revenons à Bruxelles dans le futur, nous savons déjà où sera notre hébergement.
