"The Hotel" was the former Hilton Brussels, it's something of a landmark and views from the upper floors should be spectacular, before they decided to be an independent hotel, it's newly renovated and very stylish. For many The Amigo, it's a Rocco Forte Hotel remains one of the best hotels in Brussels, the location is outstanding and their Bocconi restaurant is very memorable.
The former Le Meridien is now the Hilton Grand Place and the Dominican is a member of Design Hotels.
I might also recommend the following for luxury in Brussels, this hotel used to be the Conrad Brussels and was recently fully renovated to a very high standard, it remains one of the top hotels in the city with a one of a kind heritage, it's actually located near "The Hotel".
