This hotel is well located - a 15 minute (albeit sketchy) walk from Brussels Nord train station. It was good price for money in the sense that it wasn't too expensive for a decent property. The room was clean and serviceable. The staff was great!

At check in, receptionist (Kaan) was so kind and helpful. Staff was fine during the stay. Room is clean, effective and warm. Location is very good near Botanique and 20m from Gillon tram station.It’s something minor but for me the bed could be a little better. Price is acceptable.

Retro Hotel provides value for money hotel accommodation, small rooms with a comfortable bathroom. A bit more attention to the housekeeping could improve the service quality

There were no hangers for towels and lack of space for bath equipment. But the rest was great. We enjoyed the stay in this hotel.
Tatiana

The property had a comfortable, good sized double bed, with nice memory foam pillows. The shower was excellent with good pressure and hot water which can be lacking at some cheaper hotels. There was a shop just outside the entrance which was convenient. The surrounding area was sketchy, and the walk from the north station was not family friendly. the windows were not remotely soundproof and there were trams passing all night which made for a rough nights sleep. Overall did what it needed to do, a place to sleep and shower but wouldn’t recommend to a friend.
