New Prince de Liege Hotel

This was a leap of faith which paid off, I paid a good price and was impressed with what I got, the room was clean and well equipped and was easy connecting with Brussels excellent public transport with good restaurants in the neighbourhood.

Booked this hotel because it was one of the cheapest nearest the city centre during NYE 2017-18 and we were not disappointed. Straight forward check in , the double room we had was clean and big enough for us to chill out , watch a bit of TV (BBC1 & 2) , get ready to go out using the en suite shower and the bed was really very comfortable !! Reception were helpful with good advice on public transport and Ahmid even printed out boarding passes off for us! There is a Boulangerie next to the hotel and a corner shop and a restaurant if you feel the need to eat before you get into the city centre. It is on a main road that's about 15 minute walk for Gare de l'Ouest, there you can get bus or metro to where ever you like in the city ! For the budget traveller who likes to go out more than stay in when they visit a new country but still have use of basic amenities then this is the hotel for you ! We had a super time and stayed for 3 nights , Brussels is a fabulous city and we shall return one day i hope !

I did not pick the hotel (note to myself: no more "mystery getaway" on Groupon, not worth the value at all) and after reading the reviews here and on Google I was expecting the worst. What we found was beyond correct. Expecting the worst I was actually nicely surprised. The room and the shower were OK and clean. It's warm, the bed is cosy. Yes the building is not young but I have seen worst. There is no breakfast or restaurant in the hotel but plenty shops, bakery, restaurant around. Coffee machines in the hall. The location is far from all tourist activities but there are bus stops less than one minute away. A taxi from the city centre at night will cost you 12 euros. The area has a bad reputation but from what I saw it is not deserved as I never felt unsafe. And there are actually some quite good restaurants in this area. The guys at the reception are quite nice and polite. The hotel has recently changed direction so hopefully the bad reviews will go away. Overall if you are not looking for luxury and don't mind being in the bus, I would recommend.
