Hotel Residence Le Quinze

Brussels


With a location right on the fabulous Grand Place, Le Quinze offers recently revamped, budget-boutique-hotel decor. Views from the front rooms are truly breathtaking, but bear in mind that you’ll also share the sounds of a square that remains alive with activity (and occasional full-scale rock concerts) till the wee hours.
