Lonely Planet review

Right on central Burg Square, this modern international hotel has all the usual business trimmings. In addition there are some surprisingly quirky historical details. Certain rooms have magnificent views towards the Belfry.

Architecturally this modern building isn't a beauty but tiled roofing and exposed brickwork help it blend somewhat with the local environment. Most rooms are typical of business hotels apart from the devil-may-care use of turquoise bathroom floor tiles. However several south-facing rooms have recycled a lot of old wooden beams to create a convincing aged effect. West-facing deluxe rooms have the best views. The large, airy foyer displays splodges of abstract art. The heritage-effect bar area is particularly popular with businessmen during the 17:00-19:00 happy hour. Hidden unexpectedly downstairs are some old vaults that were once the crypt of a cathedral. Exhibition cases here show a selection of archaeological discoveries from the site. On the 8th floor there's a windowless small swimming pool and a cramped fitness area.
