Crowne Plaza Brussels Airport
Crowne Plaza Brussels Airport
Index to Genius1 Trip Reports
I stayed for two nights in June at the Crowne Plaza Brussels Airport, and since I took a few photos I thought I'd post them here (if not write a full review). The property is well located just a few minutes' complimentary bus drive from the airport terminal.
I had a booking for two rooms, which may have been the reason why I was not upgraded, despite being Diamond Elite. Despite this, my Standard room (which inexplicably came with two beds for single occupancy) felt spacious, with a view out over the surrounding residential area. Un-refurbished since the property opened in the early 2000s, the room certainly had 1990s vibes, but was in good condition and everything felt solidly good quality. I initially struggled to find any slippers, but eventually located them in a drawer below the TV.
I appreciated the fact that the bathroom had both a bath and walk-in shower. Amenities came in the form of both pumps and individual bottles.
Craft is the hotel's only restaurant, where I found a decent enough buffet for breakfast and perfectly adequate fare for dinner.
All in all, a solid hotel that shouldn't rush to refurbish as the rooms are still more than comfortable despite being visually dated.
