Thon Residence Parnasse

Thon Residence Parnasse is a four-star apartment-style hotel on Clos du Parnasse in the Léopold Quarter of Ixelles, Brussels, Belgium, close to Luxembourg station and the European Parliament. The Léopold Quarter sits just below the European Quarter and includes Place du Luxembourg, a square popular with EU staff for after-work drinks, as well as the Parc Léopold, the Solvay Library and the Natural Sciences Museum with its dinosaur collection. Luxembourg station offers trains to the airport and the centre, and Trône and Maelbeek metro stops are within walking distance, bringing the Grand Place within about ten to fifteen minutes. The Avenue Louise shopping area and the Sablon are also reachable by a short tram ride. The residence is part of the Norwegian Thon Hotels group, and its apartment-style format suits longer stays, with space to cook and spread out compared with a standard hotel room. Room types are listed as Standard and Superior rooms, with rates typically around €110-190 per night in low season and €125-210 in high season. Listed facilities include Wi-Fi and a staffed reception; kitchen details are not specified, so guests wanting self-catering should confirm in advance. Dining nearby is plentiful, with the cafes and brasseries around Place du Luxembourg and Place Jourdan and a range of Italian and Belgian restaurants in the quarter. The service character suits EU delegates, consultants and families on extended stays who value apartment-style space and a practical location. Weekends are quieter, when the quarter's office workers leave, and the Parc Léopold offers a green space for walking.
