Belgium Honeymoon Vacations

Clean and great breakfast

Excellent hotel, clean and comfortably but surrounding area lets it down

For a Marriot the location is excellent and the staff amazing but there are some improvements to be made.The hotel is in an excellent location, everything is walking distance within central Brussels! Our view especially overlooking the Bourse was wonderful. The room is nice but quite cosy when a rollaway bed is added for our child. Shower strength is very good although the plugs are slow draining in the shower and wash basin. Breakfast buffet is fine - I would say being lactose intolerant that it could be improved with full allergen labelling of all food which is lacking and there is no vegan butter which is disappointing. The reason for dropping the two stars besides the allergen food labelling is the bedding. The first night we went to bed late and to our dismay the topper on the bed felt like sleeping on horse hair - scratchy and fibrous and horrible to sleep on. Incredibly we were told this is standard bedding for the Marriott - its horrifically uncomfortable and then when I peeled back the sheet, found it was stained which was nasty. We were told there was no alternative hypoallergenic topper available as they were all booked out however the next evening we came back to the hotel and found the topper was changed to hypoallergenic feather one and it was like sleeping on a completely different bed. An apology card and some hors d’oeuvres were in the room too which was appreciated.

Hotel was safe wirh parki g facilities Hot tub and swimming pool Place was very clean and tidy. Staff is nice. Hotel was crowded. We had a shrt break with family

We recently stayed at Radisson Blu Astrid Hotel Antwerp and overall had a really great experience. The location is excellent—super convenient for getting around—and the room itself was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. Everything from check-in to the facilities met our expectations. However, there was one interaction that left a slightly sour note. When I approached reception to ask for a recommendation on where to have mussels (as it’s something Belgium is well known for), the staff member directed me to a Chinese restaurant instead. I found this response a bit surprising and, if I’m honest, it didn’t sit quite right with me. I may be overthinking it, but it would have been more helpful (and appropriate) to be recommended a local Belgian spot, especially when specifically asking for a traditional dish. That aside, the rest of our stay was lovely, and the hotel itself is a great base for exploring Antwerp.
