Magnifique appartement au coeur du SABLON ! Overview
You know what, the Magnifique appartement au coeur du SABLON! is actually a hidden gem in the heart of Brussels. I stayed at this 4-star apartment located at 32 Rue Joseph Stevens, and honestly, it’s got this cozy vibe that’s hard to find in a bustling city. It’s got a 9.2 rating, and I can see why – it’s like stepping into a local’s home, but with the comforts of a boutique hotel.
The location is spot-on. You’re just a stone’s throw from the iconic Sablon Square, where you can find antique shops, cozy cafes, and the famous Manneken Pis statue. The cobblestone streets and historic architecture surrounding the apartment add to its charm. I remember waking up to the sound of church bells and the smell of fresh croissants from the bakery down the street. It was like living in a postcard.
The apartment itself is well-appointed, with modern amenities and a sleek design. It’s got a spacious living room, a fully-equipped kitchen, and a comfortable bedroom. The high ceilings and large windows let in plenty of natural light, making the space feel even more welcoming. The check-in process was a breeze, and the hosts were incredibly helpful, offering local tips and recommendations.
Now, I have to mention the parking situation. Brussels can be a bit tricky when it comes to finding a spot, but the apartment is within walking distance to public transportation, so you won’t need a car. And if you’re a light sleeper, be prepared for some street noise, especially during the weekends when the area is bustling with locals and tourists alike.
In conclusion, if you’re looking for an authentic Brussels experience, the Magnifique appartement au coeur du SABLON! is a great choice. It’s got the perfect blend of comfort, location, and local charm. You’ll feel like a true Brussels local, and that’s something you can’t put a price on.

Reviews of Magnifique appartement au coeur du SABLON !
Susan from United States – 31 May 2025 (10/10)
A good amount of space to spread out. Good view with balcony. Convenient to shops, restaurants and markets.
Ketelbey from Australia – 2 May 2025 (9/10)
It was very well appointed and presented and in an ideal position for a visit to Brussels
Peter from Australia – 14 April 2025 (9/10)
Great central location, clean facilities and accommodation provider answered our queries promptly. Spacious apartment with many attractions and food options close by. Milan Central station easy walking distance.
What could be improved: Not to detract from the property, but to enhance stays…..This property does not have a 24 hour front desk and whilst owner promptly replies to queries, this should be amended on booking sites.
To take up on other comments, the one power point problem in kitchen could be solved with a power board. Instructions required for tv…and one set of bath towels for 5 nights (although they were good quality) is insufficient, albeit another set may have been provided if we asked.Britta from United Kingdom – 3 March 2025 (9/10)
Guests need to be aware of the stairs. No problem for us though. Kitchen had most things, but we couldn't find a chopping board.
Michael from Spain – 23 January 2025 (10/10)
Perfect size for a couple. Instructions were easy. Has everything you need. Excellent location and quiet. Great restaurants close by. We loved it.
What could be improved: We weren’t there to watch tv but we did want to check the news about the fires in LA. Just needs operating instructions.Marina from Netherlands – 15 January 2025 (10/10)
Super friendly girl, helped to order taxi from airport to apartment and arranged money exchange , due I had no Lira to pay for taxi..

Has a great sleep over , tidy n clean, nicely decorated room . Thanks a lot!Liz from United Kingdom – 26 November 2024 (8/10)
Lovely spacious simple apartment .
Bed very comfortable. Heating very effective, WiFi ok.
What could be improved: Too many scented things, I wrapped one in a bin liner as the smell was overpowering .
Sofa not comfortable for relaxing on, it was just a perch.Jill from Ireland – 15 November 2024 (9/10)
Loved the location of this property. Really nice vibe in the area wirg galleries and resturants and only a 10 mins stroll to Brussels center and 5 mins to central station. The apartment itself was very well equipped and beautifully decorated. Nespresso machine and pods provided as well as tea and sweets and chocolate. Would have no hesitation in recommending to anyone visiting brussels
What could be improved: Shower could have been a little more powerful but was totally acceptableGrazyna from Poland – 21 October 2024 (10/10)
The flat is furnished with taste and has good vibes.
There's no air-con but large windows in the living room and a sturdy fan help to cool the rooms on boiling-hot summer days.
The kitchen equipment exceeded our expectations. We very much appreciated the coffee machine with an abundant selection of capsules and Belgian chocolates.😙
Everything was impecably clean.👏
The apartment is located in an atmospheric old tenement house with a renovated staircase and a lift. There are plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. It's at a stone's throw from the Grand Sablon and about 7-9 minutes from the central station and Grand Place.
The check-in went smoothly due to Olivia's precise directions.😊
What could be improved: We couldn't find a chopping board.😉Deborah from Canada – 16 October 2024 (10/10)
The apartment was clean, tastefully decorated and perfect for a couple. The walk-in shower was great and the bed was comfortable. The location provided easy access to museums, attractions and restaurants. Check-in was easy because of the clear instructions we received. I’d recommend this apartment to couples or solo travellers.
What could be improved: The kitchen had only one outlet to handle the microwave, kettle, Nespresso and toaster.
