Lovely triplex in the heart of Le Sablon

Lovely triplex in the heart of Le Sablon Overview

Tucked away on a quaint little alley, the Lovely triplex in the heart of Le Sablon is a hidden gem in Brussels. I remember the first time I walked into 6 Impasse Saint-Jacques, I was instantly charmed by its cozy, homely vibe. It’s a 3-star accommodation, but honestly, the rating of 7.5 is quite telling – it’s not luxurious, but it’s got a certain warmth that makes it feel like home.

You know what, the location is actually fantastic. It’s just a stone’s throw away from the bustling Rue de la Régence, where you can find a plethora of local shops and cafes that give you a real taste of Brussels. I mean, you can practically smell the waffles and chocolate from your room. The neighborhood itself is quite peaceful, which is a welcome change from the hustle and bustle of the city center. However, it’s not too far from the Grand Place, so you’re still close to all the main attractions.

The triplex itself is well-maintained and comfortable. The check-in process was a breeze, and the staff were friendly and helpful. It’s worth mentioning that parking can be a bit tricky in this area, but there’s a garage nearby that’s reasonably priced. Noise levels were surprisingly low, even though it’s in the heart of the city. The rooms are a bit on the smaller side, but they’re well-designed and make the most of the space.

So, why should you care about the Lovely triplex? Well, if you’re looking for a cozy, authentic Brussels experience without breaking the bank, this is your place. It’s got character, it’s in a fantastic location, and the staff genuinely care about your comfort. It’s not going to wow you with extravagant amenities or a flashy lobby, but it’s a solid choice for travelers who appreciate a bit of local charm and a home away from home.

Many travelers prefer to book apartments in Brussels through local agencies that offer personalized recommendations and insider knowledge about the best neighborhoods for exploring the city’s rich cultural heritage.

Reviews of Lovely triplex in the heart of Le Sablon

• Stuart from United Kingdom – 3 June 2025 (7/10)

  Central location
  Great link in with host when needed
  Good size
  
  What could be improved: WiFi in bedrooms is very hit and miss
  Furniture needs a bit of a refresh
  1 front door key between 2 apartments only works when both apartments leave it in lock box.

• Abby from United Kingdom – 13 December 2024 (8/10)

  Easy to find based on the address, well stocked kitchen with glasses/plates and cleaning supplies. Good check in/out process allowed to leave bags etc on the day of check in and check out. Great location just out of town but in a lovely and luxurious area and walking distance to everywhere. Always felt safe coming and going and a pretty good service overall.
  
  What could be improved: Got there to no key in the box, called the host and they quickly resolved the problem for us. Boiler went off completely on night one. Reported it the following morning, the apartment got very cold, very quick. Contacted the host again and not so much of a quick reply this time. Had to message on here twice and no reply, then found a number to call, didn’t answer. Sent a message and did get a quick reply to this one advising how to fix the boiler. Did near enough take till we checked out to heat back up again but we did manage. The hot water also went off when this happened. Little grubby around the edges could maybe just do with a freshen up but nothing of concern. Could do with a little manual or book. The response about the boiler eventually seemed pretty written (as if it had happened before) and having this wrote somewhere in a little guide would have helped along with some other basic information.

• Coughtrey from Australia – 26 October 2024 (8/10)

  The property was clean, spacious and in a great position in the city.
  
  What could be improved: There wasn’t anything I disliked about the property.

• Timothy from Canada – 15 October 2023 (8/10)

  The location is perfect, within 10 to 15 minutes walk of many tourist attractions. The host was excellent, always responded within an hour.
  
  What could be improved: Some paper towels or dish clothes in the kitchen area would be nice. Change the curtain in the 2nd floor bathroom to more privacy curtain would be excellent as well.

• Francoise from Canada – 3 September 2023 (8/10)

  The location is great: the Sablon neighbourhood is very trendy (nice restaurants, shops). Within walking distance to the Grand Place and other attractions in the city centre.
  
  What could be improved: The parking was a problem: we had to use the public parking, with a short maximum time to park, so we were regularly checking our watch to check the remaining parking time.
  I was surprised to discover that the access to the appartment is via a narrow impasse.
  Also the stairs to access each floor is steep and narrow, somehow dangerous. It was a cool feature at 1st sight, but practically it was incomfortable. Luckiky we are still in good shape ! Definitely not recommend for guests with a limiting physical condition/mobility.

• Nadrake from New Zealand – 31 August 2023 (8/10)

  Very clean, comfy beds, great location
  
  What could be improved: Not anything negative for our group at all, but be warned that internal staircases are very steep.

• Iris from Germany – 13 August 2023 (4/10)

  Great location as a starting point to explore the city. Three storey house, a nice mixture of historic and modern style.
  Close to restaurants and public transport. Public car park 22 euros/day, also suitable for large cars such as vans.
  
  What could be improved: Need of repair: faucet on the third floor, floor lamp not working on the first floor.
  
  Be very careful! Stairs are generally old, steep and slippery and only partially have a handrail, which is not clearly mentioned in the description of this location. In our case, the stairs were still wet and even more slippery due to late cleaning, which resulted in an accident (fall from the stairs). The owner, despite the great support from booking.com, refused to offer a reasonable refund for the resulting pain and limitations in exploring the city.

• Roman from Russia – 21 June 2023 (8/10)

  Lovely apartments in the center of Brussels. All within walking distance. I recommend

• David from Australia – 28 January 2023 (8/10)

  What could be improved: When using the showing on the 2nd level the water would cover the bathroom floor. The stairs in the property were old and very steep.

• Perlow from Australia – 5 January 2023 (7/10)

  Location
  
  What could be improved: The stairs were old steep and worn and you needed to be really careful.
  There was inadequate lighting which the previous guests had told the owner however there was no one to fix it till after we left
  The windows in the bedroom only had curtains on one of the two windows.
