Wonderful service

The hotel is in a great location, but is definitely leaning more towards dated. The price is somewhat reflective of this though. While is it more dated, the service is superb. Janis was very accommodating, friendly, and eager to help. Overall a really great location, great service, and average hotel room.

I had a wonderful stay at Le Châtelain. The hotel combines elegance with comfort offering a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The location is excellent, close enough to explore the city easily, yet it’s tucked away in a quiet area that makes it feel like a retreat. The staff are attentive and professional and the room was spacious clean and very comfortable. Overall it was a brilliant experience and I would happily stay here again.

Stayed here during the Belgian Grand Prix and the service in particular was excellent. Big shout out to Salvadore the barman and all the staff on front desk during daytime and night hours. Really made the stay an experience to remember.

Located in a safe and quiet area of Brussels close to a grocery store and some restaurants. I stayed here with my kids for 6 nights and the walk to the main square was too far for them to do by foot. We tried taking public transit but there wasn’t a direct route so timing connecting bus or trams often resulted in us opting to take uber for 15-30 Euros. Staff were very nice. The hotel is older, no casting options so we used our iPad. The one bedroom had frosted glass which was hard to get kids to bed if I wasn’t ready to sleep too. Kind of defeated the purpose of a one bedroom unit for me. I’d likely get a hotel closer to the train station or the main square in future so we are closer to the tourist attractions.

Le Chatelain is in a great location but the rooms and common areas are dated, worn and not the most convenient. I understand its an iconic hotel but it needs to be updated. The furniture in my room all looked a bit shabby and some had visible stains. The bed was a queen although there was plenty of room for a king. The room had lots of natural light but poor lighting for after dark, worse than candle light. I had to use my travel book light to work or read. There were no convenient outlets for charging devices of the modern era. I ended up unplugging the alarm clock and draping my laptop cable across the room to reach the desk. The shower was really small and had no place to put toiletries so they went on the floor but then there wasn't enough room to pick them up easily. I'm in my 30s and was traveling for Business.

Exceptional service, great room, cosy restaurant with good food. My only complaint is I don’t think the AC worked that well. Fortunately it was cool outside so we were able to keep the windows open. Not real close to the major sites but only a short tram ride away. Some people like us might like that however.
