Waffles aren't just breakfast here – they're an art form, best enjoyed while admiring La Grand Place's gilded guildhalls that seem almost too ornate to be real. The Manneken Pis statue proves even national monuments can have a sense of humour. Duck into the Musical Instruments Museum where vintage saxophones and strange medieval contraptions await behind an Art Nouveau façade. The Royal Museums of Fine Arts houses Flemish masterpieces that make art history textbooks come alive. Chocolate shops offer free samples with such casual generosity you'll wonder if they've miscalculated their profit margins. After dark, tiny pubs serve hundreds of beer varieties, each in its own specially shaped glass – a ritual bartenders take very seriously indeed.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Brussels

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The best time to visit Brussels for those on a budget is during January, February, and August, when hotel prices tend to be lower.

During your visit, you can explore a variety of historical sites, museums, and architectural wonders, as well as enjoy live music, tours, and shopping that reflect the rich heritage of Brussels. This approach ensures great value for money while immersing yourself in the city's vibrant history and culture.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to Brussels on Hotels.com, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute DealsOpens in a new window sections, where you may discover discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches.

This way, you're more likely to seize the opportunity for a last-minute getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on various factors, including the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates may help you find a better deal on your stay in a Brussels hotel. If you're interested in unique accommodations, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and can sometimes offer better value.
