Wee have traveled to Brussels every year on thanks giving. The food is is Awesome.

The Hotel Metropole is like stepping into the 1920's with there iron gate lifts. Perhaps Peter lorre ,or Sydney Greenstreet wood be sitting in the Lobby, and the Concierge Msr Dadi offers Impeccable service. Ah, the old world , Brussels!

Brussels is a beautiful city but the food there is terrible especially the spaghetti. The people were rather rude, not helpful at all. I would not recommend Brussels for a vacation spot. There are much better cities to visit in Europe. I like Amsterdam a lot better.... More

I am a USA citizen, living in Belgium for 4+ yrs. I love Brussels, beautiful city with tons of culture. To the person who called Europeans rude: you need to learn about different cultures and understand them. Europeans, as a whole, are NOT rude at all. You get what you give--did you try speaking French or Flemish while you were here? A simple 'bonjour'? Try learning a bit about the history of Belgium and why they seem 'stand-offish'. The Grand Place is beautiful at Christmas-time; every... More
I am a USA citizen, living in Belgium for 4+ yrs. I love Brussels, beautiful city with tons of culture. To the person who called Europeans rude: you need to learn about different cultures and understand them. Europeans, as a whole, are NOT rude at all. You get what you give--did you try speaking French or Flemish while you were here? A simple 'bonjour'? Try learning a bit about the history of Belgium and why they seem 'stand-offish'. The Grand Place is beautiful at Christmas-time; every other year they have the 'carpet of flowers' in the Grand Place which is awesome' in September there is a Belgian Beer tasting festival in the GP--over 400 different beers in Belgium and each one has to be served in it's own glass! So much to do and see in the beautiful city--check out the surrounding area too. Be careful buying 'real' Belgian lace in Brussels...most lace there is made in China. Belgian chocolate is to die for; buy some Belgian cocoa in a grocery store--you'll never cook with Hersheys again! Walk up to the Grand Sablon and have a hot chocolate at one of the chocolatiers-YUM! Travel to Brugges--"Venice of the North". Eat at a restaurant outside of Brussels...and enjoy the 2+ hr long meal..very relaxing. Good site for restaurants: www.resto.be ; can be read in English. Since Jan '07, no smoking in restaurants. Also, Brussels is a good central city to travel out of, easy access to London and Paris. Also, a European 5* hotel is NOT the same as a 5* hotel in the USA; air conditioning is not like it is in the US either. Bon vacance!

We are currently in Brussels and we are just in AWE. It is beautiful. The food is very good, most of the beverages are carbonated, Waffles are not that great as people say, streets are very dirty, a ton of graffiti is everywhere ( what a shame) we have not encountered anyone rude. Everyone is very helpful and nice so far. Plan to do alot of walking, wear comfortable shoes you will need them. It is strange to see the food and how it is packaged. ... More
