Pros:

La atención de la mayoría del personal fue buena, pero hubo especialmente una persona del front desk muy ruda. Las habitaciones tienen un olor muy fuerte y tuvimos que pedir cambio de habitación porque olía mucho a cigarrillo y el olor era tan fuerte que no permitía dormir. En la tercera noche nos obligaron a cambiar de habitación sin mayor explicación pero al otro día nos explicaron que era porque tenían que hacer un cambio de una mesa. Sin embargo el desayuno es rico y tiene muy buena ubicación

Cons:

El olor y el trato de una persona de la recepción.

Comme d’habitude ,séjour très agréable
Pros:

Comme d’habitude la gentillesse du personnel..

Cons:

Rien qui vaille la peine d’en parler,peut-être le manque de discrétion de certains le soir,mais en cela l’hôtel n’est pas responsable….

Pros:

We really enjoyed our stay at The Dominican. The location is excellent — you are literally just a few minutes’ walk from the heart of Brussels, with restaurants, shops, and many of the main attractions very close by. It made exploring the city extremely easy and convenient. The staff were also incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. The hotel was very comfortable, and everything was exceptionally clean, including the rooms and common areas. Overall, we had a great experience and would highly recommend this hotel. We would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

The only thing we didn’t like as much was the size of the first room, which felt a little small and somewhat uncomfortable. We decided to pay for an upgrade to a larger room, which was much better. Aside from that, we had no complaints.

Sehr schön gestyltes Hotel an bester Lage.
Pros:

Ein sehr schön eingerichtetes Hotel an bester Lage. Insbesondere das Restaurant mit Innenhof, in dem auch das ausgezeichnete Frühstück serviert wird, hat uns gefallen. Die Mitarbeitenden sind überaus freundlich. Wir würden ein nächstes Mal wieder dieses Hotel wählen.
