Top KU Leuven Hotel Reviews

The Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Large, well appointed hotel. The room was clean and had everything we needed: minibar, safe, excellent shower, large comfortable bed, air conditioning. We swapped out daily cleans for vouchers for the bar and used these to buy cocktails one evening - which are ridiculously expensive (€35 for two!) but very nice. We didn’t eat in the hotel - there are plenty of nearby restaurants. The hotel is about a 5 minute walk from the Louise metro stop and a 15-20 minute walk into the town centre. So ideally located to get anywhere."

Warwick Grand-Place Brussels

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was next to the Brussels central train station which made it very convenient for traveling throughout Europe by train and to the airport. The room was cleaned everyday. The hotel's location was in the city center so we walked everywhere. Staff was helpful and friendly. We also enjoyed the slushies and cold water served in the lobby. Will definitely stay here again."

Park Inn by Radisson Brussels Airport

10/10 Excellent

"On y a passé une excellente nuit. L’hôtel est propre, moderne et confortable. On a aimé la diversité du personnel! Le seul hic est que le staff ne nous a pas bien indiqué où prendre le bus de transfert pour l’aéroport. On a dû appeler et payer un Uber. À part ça, on recommande l’hôtel."

First Euroflat Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very good for the price and the room we stayed in was very big and spacious for the two of us. Staff seemed moody and a big off putting at times. The one night we had to wait about 5/10 minutes to be let back in as they had locked the doors and there was no where to tap your card to open them like other hotels. The room was clean though and you could store your luggage."

Cardo Brussels, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and staff were really friendly and helpful! Stayed for 4 nights and could not make a complaint about any of them. The hotel is close to the centre and right next to the metro. The only issue we had was with the city itself, however that is no fault of the hotel and it’s staff. I would be wary if travelling solo as a women or with just other women, even though the town was easily accessible and a quick walk, we had many issues with catcalling and harassment from men. This happened every day, multiple times. I would stay wary of this, as we weren’t expecting that, especially when the area around the hotel did not appear to be dodgy or shady."
