Serviced apartments in Bruxelles

Cozy apartment
The place was exactly as mentioned in the description. Our host was very responsive and approachable. The place was also easily accessible from the Midi Station.

Numa | Modern Attic Room in the Centre of Brussels
I really enjoyed my stay there. It's really close to all train stations and the centre. Safe, clean and modern! The only problem was that I had a problem with the digital Pin code but they helped me right away.

High standard , close to transport and restaurants
Got to stay here for almost 3 months and he's one of the best hosts ever. Always responsive and made my stay as comfortable as possible. The place was clean, spacious, and had all that I needed. Its also super accessible. I'll definitely be visiting again.

Jardin des Olives - Comfort Studio
Although I was not able to fully enjoy the apartment, I enjoyed this apartment. It is located in a quiet area near a police station. The accommodation is clean and very functional. I got in touch with my hosts Nancy and Gregory who are very responsive and seemed very friendly to me. I would recommend this rental.

Studio with separate bedroom
Brigitte was fantastic, very friendly and always available. Perfect accommodation, consistent with the photos. Everything is very clean and working. Very quiet area.

Ixelle Studio of 17 m2, 3 min from Stephanie, 1 person
Very satisfied with this place, with the plan for my next stay to be able to return to this same accommodation. Very friendly, responsive host interaction.

Cozy, spacious & rooftop terrace
It's a lovely place, and very cosy indeed. The apartment is well situated and calm, with a beautiful terras on the quiet back side. Not the fashionable side of Brussels, but we liked the normality and the 'real feel' of the area with its diversity of people. It's close enough to the centre and well linked by transport possibilities. It's a space that feels very homely, and that means also that not everything is shiny and new, and one or two things need a little TLC maybe, but nothing serious, and we were extremely comfortable. A good coffee machine, really nice plants and a great record collection. The opposite of a sterile hotel environment. Perfect for our 4 day stay.

LUXURY APARTMENT WITH GARDEN - CENTRAL LOCATED
Beautiful apartment on the ground floor in a typical Northern home. Perfect for a long weekend for a couple. The room overlooks a courtyard which makes the space quiet and pleasant. The kitchen is also well-equipped and spacious. We enjoyed our stay and will come back if needed. Thank you

Maison Marguerite Brussel centrum! GREAT location!
What an absolutely amazing place. The photos really don't do it justice. It's close to the busy centre. Very reasonable price when there are a few of you. Very much recommended.

Grand Place Cosy Escape
Antoine was very responsive and recommended lots of great restaurants nearby. The property was within walking distance to all the major attractions, right in the center of Brussels. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby but the property itself is located on a relatively quiet street. Earplugs were provided but wasn’t needed. Everything was nice and clean inside. We had a wonderful stay, will definitely stay here again if I ever visit Brussels again!

*New* Grand Place / Place du Grand Sablon (1BR)
Fantastic apartment and a fantastic host. Great location, close to Brussels Central train station. Great workout with the stairs to the apartment 😊

Cosy flat *Grand-Place Heart of BrusselsCityCenter
Great accommodation, ideally located, in the heart of Brussels. Walking distance to Brussels Midi train station. Khalil offered us a list of restaurants around the apartment. We were only able to test 1, which was great. Thank you Khalil for your responsiveness to each of my questions.

Private artist house (2 floors) with small terrace
Jean’s place was perfect for our short 1 night stay in Brussels. Couldn’t beat the central location, and close proximity to the train. Room was decorated beautifully with art work from the shop below. Jean was a great host!

Beautiful period flat near EU offic
What a top stay. Huge atmospheric, great fancy details in the house: from the four-poster you can look your eyes out to just the decorated ceiling. Really everything is present, Elena always responds quickly and skillfully and we got a lot of tips for the beautiful surroundings (take an art nouveau walk along the European buildings through the Cinch Park along the Triumphal arch, through the neighborhood at great restaurant St. George (tip from Elena and now also from us :-). And then there is also a nice garden with sun (part of the day)! We are SUPER satisfied and would love to come back. Thanks elena and daughter!

HAVEN OF PEACE IN SABLON
Marc was a great host and the space was perfect.

Fully equipped studio - Brussels Expo Atomium area
Perfect for going to the ING Arena, it's essentially right at the end of the street. Cute place, very clean, and I was pleased to stay in a true AirBnB (the owner's first floor, while he was one the second) for the first time in a long time!

Your guide to Bruxelles
All About Brussels
As Belgium’s capital city and the birthplace of Art Nouveau, Brussels has an air of European sophistication that embraces artistic expression. The city is home to numerous fountains, museums dedicated to musical instruments, a theme park with miniature replicas of famous monuments, and a center that celebrates comics and graphic novels. Although the architecture, art, and shopping are world class, the city’s diverse history and magic are best captured in its food. As you stroll down the cobblestone streets in Brussels’ historic districts, you’ll pass chocolate shops displaying handmade bonbons, smell sugary stroopwafels in the air, and spot street vendors selling cones of crispy frites.
The central square, or Grand Palace, in the medieval central district is a great place to start exploring. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site surrounded by ornate buildings from the 17th century. You can also take in the gardens, monuments, and museums of Cinquantenaire Park and the upscale mansions and gothic churches of Sablong. In the hip neighborhood of Marolles, working-class residents sip coffee in unfussy cafes. Along the way you can snag a mitraillette, a Belgian sandwich with meat and fries, a perfect snack to enjoy on the lawn of Duden Park.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Bruxelles
Weather in Brussels is relatively mild aside from its chilly winters. With around nine days of rain each month, it's always a good idea to pack warm layers and an umbrella. If you’re staying during April or May, visit the rare plants and flowers in full bloom at the Royal Greenhouses of Laeken, a 19th-century Art Nouveau complex that spans 270,000 square feet. Locals fill up the city’s squares and beer gardens in the summer months, but you’ll be far from the only one exploring the narrow streets. Between September and November, mussels are in season, but you’ll need warmer layers and sturdy footwear to keep your balance on the city’s wet cobbles.
The cold weather and dark evenings in the winter months do not stop events and celebrations. In the weeks leading up to Christmas, the city is transformed for the Winter Wonders Festival with light shows in Grand Place, a Christmas market with outposts all over the city, an ice rink, a fairground, and stalls selling mulled wine and Belgian beer.
Top things to do in Bruxelles
Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium
In Brussels’ Royal District, you’ll find six stately art museums with more than 20,000 works on display. You’ll be able to view masterpieces from 15th-century Flemish painters, a museum dedicated to the works of Belgium’s most famous surrealist, and influential fin-de-siècle exhibits.
Marché du Midi
There’s a wealth of open-air markets throughout Brussels throughout the week, and you’ll likely stumble upon one if you spend any time exploring the city. One of the largest markets in Europe is Marché du Midi next to the central train station, where you’ll find stalls selling fresh produce, spices, prepared foods, and baked goods. For vintage trinkets, clothes, housewares, and books, check out the Jeu de Balle Flea Market, which takes place daily in the Marolles neighborhood.
Atomium
Originally built for the World’s Fair in 1958, this eye-catching metal structure in Heysel Park has become an iconic Brussels landmark. Head up the elevator and inside through tunneled walkways that look like a science-fiction set and learn about the building’s history via a permanent exhibition before admiring panoramic views of the Brussels skyline through four of its nine sphere-shaped points.
