Hotel Chelton

Hotel Chelton is a three-star budget hotel at Rue Véronèse 48 in the Squares district of Brussels, Belgium, on a quiet street within a short walk of Merode and Schuman. The Squares district is a residential area of 19th-century townhouses and green squares, including Square Ambiorix and Square Marie-Louise, laid out in an ornate style with ponds and gardens. Merode metro station, on lines 1 and 5, and Schuman station, serving the European institutions, are both close, giving fast links to the Grand Place and Brussels-Central. The Parc du Cinquantenaire, with its triumphal arch and museums, is about ten minutes' walk away, and the Berlaymont and European Parliament are also nearby. The hotel is an inexpensive property with a simple character, so guests should expect modest rooms. Room types are Standard rooms and Twin rooms. Guide rates run from about €70-110 per night in low season. Wi-Fi and a staffed reception are listed among the amenities, and guests should check whether breakfast is included. The service character is practical, suited to visitors with business at the European institutions, budget travellers and couples who prefer a calm residential setting to the busy centre. The neighbourhood has many Art Nouveau and eclectic facades, and the Cinquantenaire museums, including the Royal Museum of the Armed Forces and Military History and Autoworld, are close. Evening dining is available in brasseries and cafés around Place Jourdan, known for its frites stand, and the Schuman area, though it is quieter at weekends. There is no pool or spa. The hotel is a sound option for travellers who want low prices and good metro access in a pleasant area.
