Urban Yard

We booked the Superior Quadruple Room at the Urban Yard Hotel after a last minute cancellation by another hotel (inn). We arrived from Amsterdam at the Brussels Midi Train Station. It is a 10 minute walk. However, major roadworks were ongoing in the area which made it a bit confusing to navigate to the hotel. The road is not that easy to maneuver with kids and the bags, and through a small sketchy place that we would not recommend early or late night. You can however take a short taxi ride or more affordable tram from Zuidstation to Lemonnier (no lifts here though so will have to carry bags up/down the stairs). Once you stepped into the hotel it was like a totally different vibe! The room was clean and spacious with all the basic amenities. There was some fair going on so there was street noise but the room is sound proof and we slept well. Breakfast is okay. It is the same menu everyday but the service area is very small. There were many guests and at breakfast time it seemed to be uncomfortable/ congested with guests and staff all walking into each other! They did pack us a breakfast box-to-go on the day of checkout as we had an early train out of Belgium. + Laundermat within walking distance. Local supermarket and coffee shops close by. Great value for money.
