* Luxury Big Room - Apple Store building (Ixelles)
The apartment was in a great location and Dan was quick to respond to any questions or concerns that I had. I enjoyed my stay and would recommend this listing!

Apartment raised basement
The flat has a lovely layout for one or two. The heating is up to snuff. What an amazing dvd and vhs collection... e.g. twin peaks on vhs, 11 tapes. Great books too, literature in French and English... comic books too -- the belgian experience. Yes, the shower and bathroom were sparkling clean. Washing machine was top-notch, and when I mentioned that I didn't have detergent Christine responded within minutes and provided a cup of it. complete privacy, felt sheltered from the street surprisingly well

Lovely two bedroom apartment
Marie was very friendly and helpful. A pleasure! Thank you, Marie!

Spacious apartment minutes away from the center!
We booked this place for traveling during Christmas holiday, it's closed to the Christmas markets. The apartment is located in peaceful area but still in a walk distance to the centre of the city. The living room and pantry are spacious, suitable for a group travlers. Maryse, the host, is very nice and helpful. We had some incident during the stay and Maryse helped to sort it out so quickly.

Very nice place, well equiped and very quite. I highly recommend it.

numa | Deluxe Room in Central Brussels
The apartment was lovey, and bigger than we expected. The soaking tub was fabulous after long days of walking in the cold. Having the second room was helpful, as our toddler had his own space to sleep. The fully digital check-in and key system made everything simple and clear. Very walkable location. We would definitely stay again and recommend Numa Lief to anyone!

Spacious apartment in the heart of the great square
We stayed a couple of nights at Alya’s and had a wonderful stay. It is so conveniently located. The apartment is spacious and the bed is comfortable. We would definitely stay here again. The only thing to note is the steep flight of steps leading up to the apartment. Also, the bedroom faces the main street so if you are a light sleeper, bring ear plugs.

Olives Garden - Comfortable studio
Location was very good and practical. We could walk to most of places. The outside was a little loud because of the week just before Christmas, but generally no problems for sleeping. Grégory was also nice in messages. Thank you very much!

Studio with separate room
Brigitte Studio in Rixansard is the best affordable apartment studio in the area. Well located, fully furnished, all kitchen appliances available to use. Brigitte is the best host ever, she offered my 21 months son a baby cribs, she always check on us daily to make sure we don't miss anything. She even went above and beyond to give us a free private parking to make sure our rental car is always safe. The apartment is old house, but Brigitte tried her best to fully furnish it and kept it clean. I will definitely come back. Thank you Brigitte

Ixelle Studio of 17 m2 3min from stephanie 1 pers
I chose to stay at Hassan's place once again because the first experience was really good, both Rabia and Hassan are super reactive and accommodating and the studio is perfectly located so that you can reach important neighbourhoods of Brussels . Highly recommend it!

Apartment with a hot tub
Very cozy and spacious apartment, in fact more than in the photos. The apartment has absolutely everything for a comfortable stay. A separate delight is the bathroom with a jacuzzi - very relaxing after a hard road. The apartment was quiet, we slept very soundly, also comfortable pillows and blankets. Rome allowed us to leave things earlier and gave us coffee after the road, very nice, thank you very much. The apartment is close to attractions, as well as shops, fruit shops, bus and metro stop nearby. We'll be back! Thanks for being a great host

We had a great holiday at Nancy’s house, it was really stylish and well equipped accommodation, with some lovely touches and everything you need for a comfortable stay. Nancy was really helpful in the lead up to our trip and showed us the house when we arrived. The location was perfect for exploring Brussels and beyond and we would love to return one day.

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.
