When I booked my stay at the nhow Brussels Bloom, I was eager to experience what I had heard was one of the most creative and vibrant hotels in the city. Nestled in the lively Botanique area, the hotel promised a unique blend of art, comfort, and prime location—and I wasn’t disappointed.
From the moment I arrived, the hotel's creative energy was evident. Formerly the NH Brussels Bloom, this art-centric hotel has evolved from a place that hosted the likes of Michael Jackson and President Ronald Reagan into a modern, artistic escape for travelers. The transformation of the property into an art hotel is nothing short of spectacular. Every corner feels thoughtfully curated, with installations that spark inspiration, making the whole space feel like a living gallery.
A Suite with a View: Gallery Suite Experience
I stayed in one of the Gallery Suites, a spacious suite, offering a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and modern design. With 50m² of space, this suite is light, airy, and features panoramic views that overlook the stunning Brussels cityscape. The artistic touches throughout the suite were subtle but effective—clean, minimalist designs that made the room feel both relaxing and inspiring. I appreciated the thoughtful amenities: the coffee machine, extra-wide flat-screen television, and infinity work desk added comfort and convenience to my stay. Whether I wanted to relax or catch up on work, the suite provided everything I needed in style.
The suite boasts a separate living area, giving you ample space to unwind after a long day of exploring the city. Kick back and relax in front of the extra-wide flat screen TV, or settle into the spacious office area for a productive session. You’ll also enjoy thoughtful amenities like a coffee machine with an integrated water boiler for a fresh caffeine boost, as well as a laptop safe for peace of mind during your stay. To top it off, cozy up in your personal bathrobe and slippers, and let the hustle of the city melt away.
The bathroom, styled like a sleek photography darkroom, was particularly interesting and unlike anything I’ve seen in other hotels. It is a true showstopper, making you feel like a celebrity preparing for a red carpet moment. The spacious bathroom features a huge mirror framed with Hollywood-style lighting, creating the perfect ambiance for getting ready in style. Whether you're indulging in a self-care routine or preparing for a night out in the city, you'll feel pampered with the luxury self-care amenities provided, ensuring every moment in the suite is as glamorous as it is comfortable.
Dining: A Feast for the Eyes and Taste Buds
If you're a foodie, you’ll love the dining options at the nhow Brussels Bloom! Breakfast is a must, with the diverse buffet catering to different food preferences and an Instagram-friendly Waffle Bar where you can build your own waffles—such a fun and delicious way to start the day! Whether you like to start your day with a nutritional egg breakfast with a fresh-pressed juice and fruits or a variety of fresh pastries, sweets and champagne, they got everything to cater to every palate!
In the evenings, the hotel's restaurant offers an exciting menu of street food, and the bar is a cozy yet luxurious spot to unwind with a cocktail or a glass of wine. It’s not just about the food—the atmosphere in both the restaurant and bar continues the hotel’s creative and artistic vibe. Even if you're in a rush to explore the city, the Grab & Go shop makes it easy to pick up a quick bite and drink before heading out.
Location: A Cultural Hub in the Heart of Brussels
One of the biggest advantages of staying at the nhow Brussels Bloom is its location. Situated in the Botanique area, the hotel is surrounded by art galleries, museums, and lush green spaces. It’s also within walking distance of iconic attractions like the Grand Place and Rue Neuve shopping district. Exploring the city was a breeze, whether I was indulging in waffles, visiting concert venues, or taking in the sights.
Final Thoughts
Staying at the nhow Brussels Bloom was a refreshing experience that felt more like stepping into an art gallery than a traditional hotel. Whether you're a business traveler, a globetrotter, or a local looking for a staycation, this hotel offers a blend of creativity, comfort, and convenience that makes it truly stand out in Brussels. From the Gallery Suite to the innovative dining options and the prime location, it’s a place where you can relax, be inspired, and soak in the best of what the city has to offer.
If you're planning a trip to Brussels and want a hotel that blends style, creativity, and comfort in equal measure, the nhow Brussels Bloom should be at the top of your list!
