Rules abound at this modern HI hostel, with a curfew, lockout between and , and long, institutional corridors colour-coded by floor so you know where you are. But the English-speaking staff are pleasant and helpful, and it's the most centrally located hostel in town.

Tasso
Tasso opened in 2006 as one of the first attractions in the new Tour & Taxis complex. The setting is awesome, but also intimate, and the food is a pleasing world mix.

Le Châtelain All Suite Hotel
OK, so not all the 107 rooms in this five-star establishment technically qualify as suites in that they don't have separated living and sleeping areas, but they're still decadently spacious with ample room to swing a litter of cats.

Hôtel Arlequin
Smack-bang in the middle of Brussels, near the Grand Place, the 92-room Hotel Arlequin is a handy stumble from jazz and Latin clubs (there's one in the basement - Bar Anthanor - that's also operated by the hotel, with free entry for guests), as well as a clutch of cinemas.

Hôtel La Vieille Lanterne
Above a lace and trinket shop which doubles as the hotel's reception, all six cute-as-a-button rooms at the tiny Hôtel La Vieille Lanterne have views of Brussels's most photographed but - let's be honest - underwhelming fountain, Manneken Pis. The solid gold location is matched only by the delightful owners.

Hôtel Amigo
Built in the 1950s for the Brussels expo on the site of a former 16th century prison, this über-exclusive hotel was taken over by Rocco Forte and refurbished earlier this decade. Service is the Amigo's forte, with more permanent staff members (180) than rooms (174).

Kasbah
Next door to Bonsoir Clara, this dark and intimate Moroccan restaurant, with its telltale oranges in the window, is a feast for the senses.

Rue Charles Buls
Leading off the southern side of Grand Place is Rue Charles Buls. It paves the way to Manneken Pis and, not surprisingly, is lined with lace and trinket shops. At the start of the street, in a small arcaded gallery, you'll find an 1899 gilded Art Nouveau plaque dedicated to the city from its appreciative artists. Next to it is a reclining statue of Everard 't Serclaes, a 14th-century hero who defended the city - rub his gleaming torso for good luck.
