Ibis Brussels Centre Gare Midi

You can see it as soon as you exit the Midi train station. The room is spacious, and the twin room has a large bed plus a small bed. It's about a fifteen-minute walk to the city center. If you're taking the Eurostar to London, it's best to arrive an hour early for security, as you'll depart from this station, so staying nearby is very convenient.

Conveniently located directly opposite the South Station, with metro, tram, and bus access. It's incredibly easy to get around, even for trips to Luxembourg or the Netherlands. The room was spacious and comfortable for a good night's sleep. Plus, there are plenty of restaurants and a supermarket at the train station.

I was in Brussels for a ten-day business trip, and this hotel is really close to Midi (South) Station, just a few minutes' walk across the road. The front desk staff were nice. Just a heads up, there's a city tax that needs to be paid upon arrival. There's a small restaurant on the ground floor where guests were having drinks and beer. Breakfast is served on the other side of the elevators, but we didn't opt for it as it was a bit pricey. Luggage storage is self-service in the basement. The large lockers can fit two 24-inch suitcases plus a backpack or two. I think it was €10 for the day, and you can access your luggage multiple times. It has a dual password setup, with both numbers and a pattern. Check-in is at 3 PM. You use your card to access the upper floors. Once in the room, the space was decent and had everything we needed. As is typical in Europe, you'll need to bring your own toothbrush, toothpaste, and slippers. There's no complimentary bottled water, so I'd recommend buying some from the supermarket nearby. The Carrefour inside South Station has large SPA mineral water bottles for under €2. The overall accommodation environment is as shown in the pictures. The bed was quite large; two of us slept comfortably without feeling cramped. Oh, and the shower room comes with shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner, which is a big plus! They change the trash bags and tidy up the bedding daily. We left our suitcases in the room without any valuables inside. The lock I bought beforehand didn't really come in handy (I'd heard about safety concerns around South Station before coming, but our actual experience was quite good).

The hotel is a 10-minute walk from the South Station. I arrived an hour early and was able to check in ahead of time. The room was spacious enough and well-equipped. However, you'll need a taxi to get to the city center. Overall, it's pretty decent.

The room was a bit small, and felt a little cramped for two people, but the location was great. It's right by the train station, super close to the old town, and convenient for lake tours too.
