My father and I stayed here when we visited Brussels. Leuven (the home of Stella Artois!) is a beautiful place. The hotel was amazing. Marble floors throughout. Rooms had two double beds rather than two singles, ironing board, ice machines, electric shoe shine stations, TV..... it was amazing. And the buffet breakfast was beautiful. Everything you could think of......

Should you take a trip here you MUST go to the Thai restaurant right next to the hotel. It's a big glass circular building opposite the hotel entrance. The meal we had here is the best meal we have EVER had and we're contemplating going back to Leuven just to eat in that restaurant again!!

The Domas brewery is also worth a visit. You get to sample three half pints of beer for free and then the pints are only a pound or so each and they are lovely. You can drink hundreds of it, and you don't get a bad head in the morning as they don't add the preservatives/chemicals to give you one. The food was also beautiful and reasonably priced.

Booked a room at the hotel through bookings.org for 85 euros. Was very pleased with the hotel (4*)and had a deluxe room where the normal cost of stay was 295 euros so we got a bargain on the net. Only 10mins walk from the Grand Place and on the same road as the Royal Palace(10 mins walk at end of the road). Brussels as a city is very small and could easily see most things in 2 days. The restaurants around Grand Place are probably the best to go to with plenty of choice and menu deals. However, beware of the waiters trying to get you in to eat. Found an irish bar down the road from Grand Place called Celtica, has two big screens for those wishing to catch an English Footie match and is open til late in the evening with a disco. Seemed a bit of a ghost town outside the area of Grand Place and we found that almost all shops are closed on a Sunday.

Brussels is an interesting City but needs no more than one and half days to cover. Great place to find wonderful food I would recomend La Roue D'or, just off the grand place.
sadly we found Brussels to be a dirty City and also a large number of people begging on the streets.

The Bedford Hotel,135 Rue du Midi was well located and a good price and a good breakfast buffet,
BUT, yes a very big BUT. We had a no smoking room and it was apparent that the rules were not enforced. When I spoke with reception they said, and I quote.
";When we are full we give the no smoking rooms to smokers, we can not tell them to not smoke!!!!";
my reply was ";yes you can";
So if you do not smoke do not stay at the Bedford and perhaps ask any hotel you are going to stay in if they are real no smoking rooms
