Reviews of Hostel Grand Place

24 October 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: You can't get past the location. Despite the problems we had with the hostel, you're no more than 5 metres from the Grande Place and right in the heart of Brussels.

Disliked: Our room was *freezing*, there is no reception, to check in you have to walk at least 20 minutes out of your way, the check in location has the name of a different hostel and is poorly signed, the security guard checks your card at night (good) but the cards are blank white things that you can get anywhere

Liked: it has a great great location, the rooms are really big, and the bathrooms are clean. It was great.

Disliked: They should have like a little kitchen, or a microwave and a something to boild water and stuff like that. And the computer there is dead. But you can still use the wifi so good. Not good if you don't carry a notebook.

24 September 2011

Liked: It's really in the center and is totally new and clean!

Disliked: The Computer didn't connect too often with the internet, because it is extremly old. There was no staff and if there were some in the Hostel, they had no idea of how many places are going to be taken. If you want a nicer Hostel atmosphere take another one.

05 September 2011

04 September 2011

Liked: Very good location

Disliked: No reception, had to check in 15 min away from the hostel. No checkin possible before 3o'clock!

03 September 2011

Liked: It was in a brilliant location and was clean and modern

Disliked: I didn't think the staff were approachable and hardly ever there. They make you check into another hostel first10 minutes away which is very inconvenient. There is no kitchen, not really a common room, just a table. The wifi is rubbish, always cuts out and when it does you must log in again. I don't really think it's the hostel's wifi, it's wifi from an info centre across the road I'm pretty sure! Our bathroom stank, always had a disgusting eggy smell... I wouldn't stay here again.

22 August 2011 Michelle would recommend this property

Liked: The location is incredible as it is right next to the Grand Place! For me, the atmosphere was nice, everyone said hello to you in the downstairs area - in fact, everyone in my 10-bed dorm ended up going out together and exploring Brussels. The facilities were clean and there are sockets and lights conveniently located right next to your bed.

Disliked: The wi-fi is a bit spotty, and the walk from the check-in place to the actual hostel was terrible for me with my giant suitcase..

22 August 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The location is fantastic, right next to the grand place and about 5 minutes walk from the mannequin pis and some great pub, we were in a new room, each bed has a reading light and socket plus there's a good shower. Sheets, room and beds were clean aswell which is more than can be said for a lot of hostels.

Disliked: The walk to the reception is a bit of a pain, and the hostel itself could do a bit more to make it clear in their overview that it is separate from the actual hostel, there was no lock on the toilet, but being a brand new room I'm sure that will have been rectified by now and it wasn't a massive problem anyway. Only other problem was the lack of lockers.

22 August 2011

16 August 2011 Elliott would recommend this property

Liked: Great location, Delerium Tremens cafe is just around the corner as is the train station. Plug and light for each bed and the showers and toilets are clean and modern.

Disliked: The way you have to check in somewhere else and then go to the actual hostel, however we just went straight to the hostel as we'd been before and it was fine.

08 August 2011 Miriam would recommend this property

Liked: The location was great, very clean aswell!

Disliked: Ythe building is still under construction, so it's kind of a mess in the social area's. It lacks a fridge, normal breakfast (the free drinks the offered were cold, so couldn't drink coffee or what so ever. Wifi didn't work so good. The fact tat the check-inn was 15 minutes away is kind of annoying after a long trip.
