Hotel Rembrandt

Hotel Rembrandt is a simple budget hotel on Rue de la Concorde in Ixelles, Brussels, Belgium, on a quiet street just off Avenue Louise. The location is close to Place Stéphanie, the Matongé quarter and the boutiques and galleries of Avenue Louise, and Louise and Porte de Namur offer tram and metro links to the Grand Place, which is around twenty minutes away on foot or less by transport. The surrounding streets of Ixelles contain townhouses, small restaurants and cafes, and the Ixelles ponds and Place Flagey are within reach for a local walk. The hotel is a modest property aimed at travellers who want an affordable base in a good district, rather than a hotel with extensive facilities. Rooms are offered as Standard rooms and Twin rooms, and the twin rooms suit friends or colleagues travelling together. Listed amenities are Wi-Fi and a reception. The hotel does not advertise a restaurant, spa, pool or fitness room, so guests usually eat in the many cafes, bakeries and restaurants nearby, which range from inexpensive Matongé kitchens to brasseries on Avenue Louise and bistros on Chaussée d'Ixelles. Service is simple and practical, with a staffed reception that can help with directions and transport. The hotel suits budget travellers, students visiting the nearby universities, solo visitors and families wanting central access at a moderate price. Nightly rates run about €65-100 in low season and €75-115 in high season, which is notably lower than the chain hotels on Avenue Louise. The quiet street makes for restful nights, but guests with large luggage should check the number of floors and lift availability. Visitors travelling in busy periods, such as conference weeks and December, should reserve in advance.
