The Hoxton, Brussels
Expert reviews
“The Hoxton’s arrival marks a rebirth for Brussels’ once dreary and office-heavy northern business district. It occupies a chunk of Victoria Tower, a futuristic structure built as IBM’s Belgian headquarters in the ’70s.”
“Why, when in Brussels, should you choose to stay at The Hoxton? Well, because the Belgian outpost of this cool international chain is fun, stylish and well-run, with plenty of youthful energy. The views are impressive, too, and the ground-floor restaurant serves a great line-up of Peruvian dishes.”

All you need to know
Rock up to The Hoxton Brussels and it’s clear straight away this isn’t a boring sleep-and-dash hotel.
Set inside a bold brutalist tower right by the Botanical Gardens, the place leans hard into cool 70s vibes. Think bold stripes, graphic rugs, colourful velvet and warm wood everywhere. It feels retro but still fresh, like someone really nailed the balance.
You can choose anything from snug Cosy rooms to seriously spacious Biggy ones, and they all sit high enough to serve up big views across Brussels. Down in the lobby, things are always buzzing. It’s the kind of spot where you grab a coffee, hang out for a bit, or half-work half-chill in the quirky co-working corners.
Food and drinks turn into a mini adventure of their own. Cantina Valentina downstairs brings modern Peruvian flavours that might make you skip breakfast altogether, while the rooftop bar Tope is all about punchy tacos, cocktails and wide-open city views.
It’s especially good when golden hour rolls in and you suddenly forget about leaving.

A really great hotel
One of the best hotels I've stayed in for sure. It was very clean and comfortable, really nicely decorated (the room, the hallway, the restaurant, the bar area, and everything), in a bit of an art-deco style, the staff was very friendly, the breakfast was great, and the drinks at the bar also really good. The location was also great, with botanical gardens right next to the hotel, very central and close to anything you might need (bars, restaurants, public transport). The city view from out window was really nice, and the room was very quiet. All in all, a really great hotel!
I would have liked to have two chairs with a backrest in the room (next to the table), since now one of us had to sit on the stool without the backrest when having coffee/tea/etc., which was not very comfortable.

Great food not only for breakfast. I like the combination of retro, latino and brutalist style in the room and whole building. Staff was very nice as usually.
The location and mainly evening returns from other place are not the best due to the location.

Gym was poorly maintained and contained minimal equipment. Key card deactivated well before check out time which was quite annoying.

We loved everything from the lobby to the bar, restaurants and the room. We were upgraded to an upper floor room which I would recommend for everyone. The staff was also excellent, friendly and well trained.

Great view and déco but late check-in
The view from my room on the 16th floor and the « déco rétro-chic ».
The late check-in only from 2:30 PM (I arrived around 10 AM with the expectation to access my room right away for a shower and a nap).

Really cosy and comforting stay.
The Hotel was extremely comfortable and beautiful. Our room was the one with the bathtub and it was lovely. The bathtub was really big and had a good view of the city. The interiors of the hotel was very beautiful and had a nice warmth to it. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.
The location was a little far from the main touristy spots and because it was quite cold it was difficult to walk it off but on a good warm day you can easily do that.

Would definitely recommend
The upgraded room was excellent. View was magnificent
Rooftop bar was closed when we attempted to go but that was a sunday so half expected as much.

Great stay and value for money. Location felt slightly unsafe however getting a taxi solves this.
Lovely hotel. Rooms and reception area were lovely! We ate at Topo the mexican upstairs and food and service was great. Breakfast downstairs was also very nice and the coffee in reception. Staff were very friendly.
Location - getting off the train felt very uncomfortable. Hotel is located five minutes from the train station which you quickly cross over the road to the modern business area. However wouldn’t reccomend walking from the hotel, I would recommend a taxi.

Great stay for one night before heading to the airport.
The hotel was beautiful, lobby bar, breakfast restaurant and room! The front desk was very helpful with guiding us for a dinner reservation.
The pillows were almost completely flat, the bed was a little uneven.

The interior was unique, the view was beautiful, the tea quality was very good, and the staff were helpful.
It would be practical to have a luggage rack in the room. It would also be nice to include some bathroom essentials and hotel slippers. Finally, a bit more attention to cleaning would be appreciated, as there was some dust in places such as the lamps.

Funky vibes in a great location for business or vacation stays
We had the most helpful and friendly front desk staff and really enjoyed the vibe at The Hoxton - all the quirky little details were super fun. Our room was beautiful - floor to ceiling windows with amazing views of the city and gardens, spacious with comfortable beds. We were within walking distance to the train station and the Christmas Markets and main square so the location was also perfect. Highly recommend!

About 15 mins walk into main centre of Brussels, very easy to find. We booked the corner skyline view room, excellent views of the city and all the Christmas lights. Spacious room, lovely bathroom. Both rooftop and main restaurants served delicious food and the lobby bar in particular has a great vibe with fab music
nothing, everything was fab.

Lovely hotel. Reception staff amazing. Very comfortable room and great rooftop bar/eatery.
Room was cool design. Rooftop bar we loved.
Downstairs bar terrible. Sat for half an hour and got no service and this was after the bartender telling us one of his staff would be over to take our order. Left as was very disappointed. Also 21st floor a bit noisy with bar directly above.

A truly relaxing and enjoyable stay!
Very clean, loved the decor and the open spaces. Our room was massive and had great views of the city!
Only thing was we wanted to go to the rooftop, but sadly it was closed on the Sunday which we hadn’t realised until we tried to head up there - our error really for not checking beforehand.

Nice experiance , check how far the places you want to visit are from the hotel.
Stayed in a corner room , was a spacious room. The restaurant and bar downstairs was lovely.
Unusual not not have a smart TV in a hotel like this , would have been nice to have that.

Superb stay for Xmas market
Location & quality of hotel. Very friendly & helpful staff team
The carpark is located underneath & not part of the hotel . As we walked out from the car park to the hotel kids threw large metal disc over which literally missed us - very dangerous. So walk by near wall side , we reported to hotel although not their responsibility but they said they would report to carpark company

Lovely comfortable stay at a great hotel.
Loved the decor. The rooms were really spacious, we got an upgrade which was fantastic. The beds and bedding were so comfortable. The views were amazing. Room 1322. Very helpful staff. Loved the vibe in the rooftop bar on a Friday night.
The service at breakfast was a little slow and a bit pricey for what you got.

Just excellent, we fully enjoyed our stay. Very romantic and gorgeous decor, the view was spectacular. Good choice of places to eat in the hotel.
Signage on the outside wasn't too obvious. It would have been nice to opt in to have the bed made without having the sheets changed.

Good hotel
Breakfast o.k. , Surroundings. All members of the staff were polite and helpful even without being asked.
Too little vegetables. The coldest space in a room- bathroom. In the upper floor noise from heavy engineering equipment. Room was without shelves, wardrobe, pants hung over coffee machine . I was forced to ask to change the room.

Great stay in modern & comfortable hotel
Relaxed. Aesthetically pleasing. Great staff and super cocktails. Very secure lift/room entry service.
Limited room service menu and no mini bar

A well-located hotel with a very nice room. Improvements to be made on room service and cleaning.
The corner room (#1404) with the view and all the windows was a pleasant surprise. I will ask for the same next time I come in November, to be on the safe side (I peeked into another room and it was not spacious at all).
I did not have breakfast, but I used the room service in the evening. There were a few mishaps: On one occasion, I ordered a burger and a salad, and I got two burgers instead. I did not complain, because I was too hungry. The second night I ordered the same, and only the burger came. When I told the staff member, she said that the salad cannot be ordered on the app, but that she would bring me one! I DID order it on the app, so it makes no sense, and if I had not said anything I would have had an incomplete order. In addition, I find the menu for room service very, very limited. Also, I find it odd to be asked upon arrival if I want my room cleaned or not: this should not be optional and gives the impression that the hotel is trying to save costs wherever possible. The "eco-argument" is not convincing.

Even though there was a great TV, it was impossible to watch Netflix or YouTube on it.

Very good option for Place Charles Rogier
The location was perfect for where I needed to be for a meeting. The staff at reception were excellent: very helpful and on the ball. The room was nicely laid out with a view from the upper floors.
The hotel is on the edge of a not very nice neighbourhood, but feels shielded from that. The main bar area feels a bit soulless. The separate bar/restaurant on the rooftop is lively, but it seems to cater largely to non-residents on the weekend and getting served can be a challenge. The hotel is certainly not cheap, but then this is Brussels.

A nice place to return to after a busy day.
A lovely modern hotel right near the historic area. Great staff who won points right away by upgrading our room. friendly and knowledgeable.

The room was nice with a great view of the city, and the bed was very comfortable. Central location with easy access to the center.
The lobby and the restaurant were nice, BUT the music was always so LOUD. We couldn't sit in the lobby or have breakfast with a peace of mind. It would have been much more comfortable if the volume had not been so loud. There was no luggage rack in the room. I hate to put my luggage on the floor. We had to place it next to the coffee machine, which was not convenient at all.

Nothing not to like.
