Comfortable airport hotel with free airport shuttle
Pros:

Very convenient hotel for an early flight from Brussels airport Zaventem, with free hotel shuttle to and from the airport.
It is modern, functional and clean, and comfortable bed. Breakfast has a good variety of choices.

Cons:

Nothing negative to say, it serves the purpose of being close to airport, which means that the surroundings are not very appealing (a number of other airport hotels), but that’s the consequence of proximity to the airport

Pros:

Goed en uitgebreid ontbijt, vriendelijk personeel, schone en fijne kamer.

Cons:

Het was 25 graden in de kamer toen ik aan kwam. Heb de airco aangezet om het koeler te krijgen maar heb niet het idee gehad dat het de 18 graden die ik ingesteld had gehaald heeft.
