The Dominican Hotel – Brussel

I loved the hotel from the moment I walked through the front door. The lobby and restaurant area is beautiful. The staff was always very helpful and professional. I had a lovely and very comfortable room overlooking the courtyard. The location was perfect and I truly enjoyed my 3 night stay.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely hotel. Rooms were well furnished with super shower, comfortable beds, and all amenities including a small gym and spa. The staff were pleasant and professional, and the young man on concierge was most helpful.Our only gripe was the temperature of the room- even though climate control is available- it doesn't […] seem to work efficiently and the room is unbearably hot. Gripe two is not being able to drive right to the door for unloading. Parking is very near- but we had elderly guests with us- so the option to 'drop off' would have been advantageous- Overall a 5 star stay and a definite return when we are back in Brussels this summer.

I was pick pocketed on my way from the metro to the hotel leaving me with no cash and no cards. Unfortunately this seems to be a very common occurrence in this area. The hotel staff were very helpful and allowed me to make international calls from the reception desk to cancel my cards and allow me to access alternative funds.

The hotel was great, convenient location. Impeccable decor. One fellow guest said the lifts are "truculent" - you need a key to access them. Internet service was so-so, one of the main negatives.

Fabulous hotel.. I usually do not review, but this was so wonderful that I must let people know!

This hotel is in a great location, close to Grande Place and the excellent fish restaurants of Place St Catherine. Very clean and lovely room with both a shower and bath in the ensuite. Only downside was that room was too hot and we could not cool it down, even with the small window open, which unfortunately let in noise from the streets below. We chose […] not to eat breakfast at the hotel as we thought it too expensive but rather to breakfast at one of the local cafes at around one third of the hotel price. I would recommend this hotel.

Excellent location, staff was great and very friendly. Excellent bar and lounge area with a nice outside area to smoke if needed. Room was spacious and very comfortable. I travel to Brussels a lot and for the price its an exceptional place to stay, will absolutely come back.

We were very impressed at the scale of the lobby and later found out that the hotel was once a Domincan Abbey, which explained the generous space and height of ceilings. There were some artefacts still in place from its Abbey days that had been skillfully integrated in the redesign. Very comfortable room and we slept soundly as it is a peaceful place […] and well insulated. Also, very friendly staff who were consistently keen to be of help. We enjoyed our stay very much and would stay there again. Have already recommended The Dominican to two colleagues. Lesa meira

Slightly atypical, in that it is playing Gregorian chant in the lift, but great hotel. Convenient for both shopping and the old town, while just outside of the tourist bustle. Nice room style and hotel decor.

The Dominican is a very beautiful and clean hotel...definitely top shelf. It is also located in a great spot close to the Grand Place, Christmas fairs, many bars and restaurants, and wonderful shopping. The room was spacious and very comfortable. The bed was the best we experienced during our entire trip to Luxembourg, Belgium and France (3 nights of […] 10). The only strange note is that the hotel did not offer valet parking. We dropped off our bags, and were given directions to a nearby parking garage (just around the block). It was not a big deal. However, we did think it strange that such a nice hotel would not offer such an amenity (reason for my 4 rating on hotel service). The hotel bar and restaurant were both excellent and provided a relaxing but elegant atmosphere. The hotel staff were extremely courteous, friendly and helpful. Lesa meira

We stayed on Friday and Saturday nights in December. The hotel is quite discreet on the outside, but superb on the inside - comfortable common areas to the highest standard. Our room, too, was very well appointed and comfortable, with a large rain shower. A Nespresso machine was a nice touch, though the provision of just three capsules was a bit mean. […] There is an ice machine on each floor by the lift. Reception staff were very professional and courteous. A couple of little niggles. The TV didn't work properly when we arrived and despite asking it didn't get fixed by the time we got back the first night. That said, when we asked again the following day it was put into working order on the spot. Overall, a very nice and well-run hotel. Lesa meira

The Hotel was superb. Staff were attentive but not pushy, very comfortable bed and room, and within 200m walk you could be in the bustle of the Grand Place restaurants. I would very happily stay at The Dominican again. Brussels Christmas Markets were leagues ahead of Lille. Parking was a little tricky, but there are 3 car parks close to the hotel.

Our stay at the Dominican was overall very pleasing. The mood was set by the entryway into the hotel. The front desk staff was generally helpful and friendly. The housekeeping staff definitely respected the "do not disturb sign", but were very efficient. (even if you left for a few minutes, they would come into the room and clean quickly). The hotel […] is centrally located and is in walking distance of many major attractions such the Grand Place. It was also convenient to shopping centers, movie theaters, grocery stores, public transportation and restaurants. The only negative was really their room service. For example, after specifically requesting a well cooked burger (no RED), it arrived absolutely rare. Also, make sure you check your bill because it seems that the room service will attempt to add costs that may not belong to your room. (not sure why this happens, but we had almost $300 Euros of erroneous meals applied to our room. The front desk was very good at removing the charges and addressing the issue). I would definitely go back. Lesa meira

Nice hotel close to old section but quiet. Hotel appears to be business hotel but worked well for our vacation. Rooms have modern touches, but still has unique feel. Staff was helpful. Breakfast expensive, better deals just offsite.

It took us ages to find the hotel but that was mostly our fault. It would have been really useful to get details of nearest metro station in the email which came a few days before the trip. Staff,however,were very helpful when I phoned to say I was lost. Hotel was lovely when we finally arrived only 2 issues were that TV didn't work on the first night […] but they fixed it the next day and our room service took longer than expected but they apologised and it was delicious so all OK. No swimming pool though, which would have been nice. Lesa meira

Comfortable hotel. Didnt choose the breakfast option as this would have added about £40 per couple per day! I don't know about you but i eat about £2.50 worth of breakfast so we ate elsewhere. Roadworks outside meant that we paid too much for a taxi from Midistation.. either that or the driver was taking us for mugs. Now know that we should have jumped […] on a bus or the underground. Nice drinks in bar but i wouldn't bring kids here.. too fancy for children really. Lesa meira

Excellent location within walking distance of of the main train station (and therefore the tour bus) and the main square. Currently there is some refurbishment of the road the hotel is on, but this didn't affect our visit - once the work is finished the first impression of the hotel from the outside will definitely improve. Didn't have breakfast because […] it was a ridiculous price - this really would have to be my only criticism of the hotel - had it been more affordable & we would definitely have eaten there.

Everything was excellent except for two related problems:1) The room faced the wall of another building and there was a large window on the other building facing our room. To maintain privacy it was necessary to keep the blackout curtains closed most of the day. 2) Number one would not have been a problem if there were good artificial lighting in the […] room, but there was not enough artificial lighting in the room. The service in the hotel was excellent, especially the people at the front desk. Lesa meira

we booked & paid for what was advertised as a Triple Room for 3 nights but when we arrived it was a small double with a camp bed at the end of the double bed underneath the TV. We spoke to the Manager and she said that was all that was available. There was no apology offered and her attitude was one of indifference. This was our only holiday this year […] and we felt that our problem was not taken seriously. We were booked on a room only basis - and the rate was not cheap. We checked out the next morning to the fabulous Radisson around the corner and even though it was a dbl room with an extra bed, the room was big enough to comfortably fit it. While we appreciate it may well have been the only room available, and not much they could do about that ,they could have been a little more sympathetic and perhaps offered breakfast or even wine & chocs as a gesture of good will, instead because of the poor attitude they lost 2 nights accom & long term customers.

This is a stylish hotel right in the centre of Brussels. The public areas are impressive, the staff welcoming, the room was very well appointed and very clean. The bed and bedding were really comfortable - large, with a duvet like a cloud and wonderful pillows! One of the few hotels we've stayed in recently to have a minibar (which we didn't use). Lighting […] was excellent - I particularly welcomed the small reading light above the bed. Good airconditioning kept us cool during a heat wave. Really excellent. Lesa meira

Always enjoy staying at the Dominican Hotel. The location is central (4 blocks from the train station and 5 min. walk to the Grand Platz). I like have free wifi in the rooms and the main lobby has two free computers to use. The bar scene is popular with the guests. This hotel needs a better fitness area to meet the needs of theri clients.

The hotel itself is located very close to all major attractions. Upon check in, which was around 10:30AM, our room was ready. We had an early lunch (breakfast stopped being served at 10AM) and situated ourselves in the room. The hotel is very quaint and if you are fond of boutique hotels then it would seem to be a great match. My complaints however […] are as follows; while there is a thermostat located in the room it didnt seem to allow us to change the temperature in the room. Every night of our stay was miserably hot and suffocating even with the window open and the cool Belgian air entering. The housekeeping was also a huge pain. If we had the do not disturb sign on the door they would simply call to disturb us instead. Apparently house keeping only works set hours each day. The room service menu is very limited as well. Think microwave pizza style. Great location at a decent price but would probably try somewhere else out when we return. Lesa meira

A really nice hotel close to the Grand Place. A clean, well maintained hotel in a convenient location. A couple of things to note. When they sell you a three bed room, one of the beds is two chairs pushed together with a foam mattress on top. The other beds have a thick layer of foam on them, so that they are very soft, too soft for me. The bathroom […] lights are soooo dim and poorly positioned, that it is best described as horror movie lighting. You can't see a thing and half of your face is in dark shadow. While they say they have air conditioning, it seems to run as a heater when the weather outside is cool. Luckily the room windows open. If you are an expedia VIP member, don't expect any upgrades. The ice bucket was full of mold and stale water. Lesa meira

Hiring a bell boy would be a good idea. Though a person from reception helped us with a luggage, but we were explained that there is no bell boy present at the hotel. Also would appreciate a smiling personnel at the front desk, especially after a long drive! Hotel does not have a parking, but separate parking is not far!

I have stayed at the Dominican 5 times now. The first time was amazing, but each time, it seems to go a bit more downhill. It is a nice and comfortable hotel in a good location, but the service is a bit spotty, and they do not seem too concerned by that. I am not sure if I will continue staying here.

We used the hotel as a base for a one night stay in Belgium, most of which was spent at my cousin's wedding in nearby Grimbergen. The hotel has clearly been updated recently, to a very good standard throughout. The lobby, bar and dining area are very clean and modern, although we didn't use them during our one night stay. Check-in was very quick and […] friendly, and the staff were more than helpful in answering our questions about transport links. Check-out was similarly efficient and friendly. The room was very comfortable with a large bed and all the usual facilities you would expect, including a nice walk-in shower. The only negative (for us) was that the room was a little dark. We didn't mind the lack of natural light - I imagine that some rooms get more - but it would have been nice to have more artificial lighting options to compensate for that. The hotel is in a great location just a few minutes walk from the Grand Place and the central rail station, and very close to the excellent Restaurant Vincent. If you enjoy steak, Vincent is a must! We would definitely book at this hotel again in the future. Lesa meira
