This hotel is located right in the heart of Brussels near the main square. The entry can be easy to miss as it's just a small entry way on a busy street with a long hall that leads to the reception. The location was fantastic -- about 3 minutes walk from the main train station, a few minutes walk to the main square, and just seconds from restaurants, bars and throngs of people. Despite that, the hotel rooms are set back so noise was not an issue (at least for my room which was on the main level facing a garden/courtyard). The hotel is very professional with a front desk staffed 24 hours and people greeting you when you come & go. The rooms were nice, clean, spacious and well-appointed with in-room safe, large bathroom, robes, flat screen TV's with lots of channels, albeit only a few were in English. The bed was large and very comfortable. While the hotel offers a fairly pricey breakfast, in the mornings you can easily find cafes and shops selling all sorts of food items. My only complaint was that given how nice the place was, there was no AC which might not usually be a problem except that we were at the early stages of a heatwave. At night, you could open the windows up top to let in a breeze to cool off the room, but that would then let in mosquitos, particularly if there were any lights on. Overall, the location can't be beat, and the quality, particularly for the price was excellent.

We checked into the Le Dixseptieme after a flat rental fell through, and it was the favorite stay of our 3 week vacation. Great location--5 minute walk from the station and in the heart of the lower town action, tons of bars and restaurants close by--and the room was appointed with a most comfortable bed and luxury linens (ironed pillowcases!), thick bath towels and robes, full toiletries, Nespresso machine, AC, speedy wifi, everything you could want or need. We didn't take advantage of the common areas, but there were several and we felt like we might have been the only people there. We also received outstanding service from Simon who welcomed us to the oasis that is the Le Dix with a smile, helped us figure out the light switches, and mercifully switched to English when he heard my French. We loved Brussels and would go back to Le Dix in a minute!
