Located in the centre of Brussels, the charming 3-star Hotel Des Colonies is ideal for both shopping & sightseeing. The Grand Place & famous Manneken Pis are just a pleasant 10 minutes' stroll from the hotel, or a mere two tram stops away. For those wanting to take advantage of the shopping Brussels has to offer, the main shopping street is just 100 metres away. The hotel Des Colonies' public areas have changed very little since the early 1900s, keeping their old colonial charm. Sir Montgomery stayed at the hotel in the 1940s & you can still see the typewriter he used. All 95 attractive rooms are comfortably decorated & although modernised, they still keep the charm of the Art Nouveau days.
