Michelin Guide "The splendours of the Victorian era are brought to life in this British-style townhouse."
Frommer's "An old convent and some neighboring properties in the upmarket shopping district around avenue Louise and Porte de Namur have been transformed into this graceful hotel." Full review
Lonely Planet "This grand English-style hotel might appear to be a jodhpurs-and-foxhounds type of place, but for all its manor-house grandeur it has a languid, laid-back air." Full review
Travel + Leisure "A haven of calm set between the bustling blocks between the European Parliament and the Royal Palace, the 1991 Stanhope has a decidedly British charm." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Providing deluxe Belgian hospitality in three converted townhouses, the five-star boutique Hotel Stanhope is decorated in English country style and delivers old-fashioned service."

Concierge "The blandest of names gives entirely the wrong impression of this 17-room gem in the Lower City's cute, cobblestoned Sainte-Catherine district."
Fodor's "The rooms, divided into economy, business, and first class, are as comfortable as those in far more expensive establishments." Full review
Lonely Planet "The wooden-panelled reception area does nothing to prepare guests for the full-colour decor in each uniquely designed room transporting you to, say, Tahiti, Congo, Cuba or Zanzibar." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Situated in a peaceful location to the north of Place Ste Catherine (the city’s old fish market), Hotel Welcome sits in the midst of some fabulous fish restaurants."
Frommer's "The name of this gem of a hotel, overlooking the Fish Market, couldn't be more accurate, thanks to the untiring efforts of the husband-and-wife proprietors." Full review
