With the number of hotels that are available in Brussels, there are actually only a select few that make it to my favorites list. There are budget accommodations that I have come to love, that’s for sure; but of course, it really can’t be helped when luxury hotels are on the top of my list — they do capitalize on the utmost comfort and style for their guests!

Read through this detailed guide of the top FREE things to do in Brussels!

So if you’re ever in this bustling city that is called as the ‘Heart of Europe’ and looking for a luxurious stay, consider the legendary hotel in Avenue Louise, the Steigenberger Wiltcher’s.

The Steigenberger Wiltcher Hotel

Steigenberger Wiltcher's

A 5-Star Steigenberger Wiltcher Hotel. Based in Germany, the Steigenberger Hotel Group is one of Europe’s leading hospitality companies, and for over 80 years, the name stands for the top-class European hotels and resorts. The Steigenberger Wiltcher’s is their stronghold in Belgium and it has been more than a luxury hotel — it is a unique experience that holds a historic magnificence!

Historical elegance. In 1911 to 1913, Baron Joseph de Crawez commissioned for Sydney-Charles Wiltcher to work on building an art noveau building, and this is how the hotel first came to place. It was originally signed with Carlton Hotels in 1925, but it was taken over by Steigenberger in 2013 which spurred its popularity.

Accessible location. It is conveniently placed in the elegant Avenue Louise which is Brussel’s golden shopping mile in the Ixelles district. The city’s main attractions are not so far away either as they are just a few minutes away. Rest assured, the tram and metro are just a stone’s throw away from the hotel for your ease of travel within the metropolis.

As for business people like me, you’re sure to be treated with a decent internet connection in every room; so no worries for that!

    wow – that hotel is gorgeous. We went to Brussels a couple of years ago with our kids, we rented an apartment though as that was a bit easier for us.

      I can understand that apartments can be better for families, but this hotel also has bigger rooms and suites. If you’re ever looking for a more luxurious option, this could be it :)
