Hotels near The Rubens House, Antwerp

Pros: - decent location; about 7mins walk from the Antwerp Centraal, and 2mins from Flixbus busstop, though in a relatively quiet corner. - they have a small common dining area on the ground floor with microwave, fridge, kettle and vending machines selling snacks and coffee. the coffee machine needs some upkeeping though, and the snacks vending machine was done during our period of stay. Cons: - if you stay on the lower level floors be prepared to keep your curtains closed - the whole room can be seen clearly from outside the hotel. - room has everything you need but can't help feeling like it's hollow, barren and empty; there's barely any interior works done to the room. - no kettle in the room and you will need to deposit 10euros to borrow one.

Had a nice stay at the hotel. It was clean and tidy. Did not use breakfast service. The only point of criticism was that the use of the car park was not notified in advance by the tour company that it was Euro 19 per day. Paid half in the end. There was also no information bulletin in the room about the facilities in the hotel. (safe/breakfast/telephone/lighting/TV remote control/cleaning)

Friendly counter and allowed to go to my twin room 4 hours early. Very clean hotel with towels and water supplied. No kettle but I think this must Bea Belgian thing. The station is opposite but it is 20 min walk to the old town. Fine for me but some may want to be nearer. The walk there is the main shopping street. Overall I think it was great value. As a note to other guests, and I always write this, please be more considerate when talking in the corridors especially before 8am. Whisper, your voice echoes and sound meds like you’re shouting. And don’t allow to doors to slam shut!!

Stayed in the the Hotel Indigo for 2N whilst visiting Antwerp. The hotel is excellently located, within a stone's throw from the Grand Central Station - so ideal for accessing local destinations. The rooms are excellent quality - with good quality furnishings. The only exception to this is the bathroom mirror, which has a light which dangles from cord in front of the mirror, rather than being placed at a spot where the light effectively illuminates your face as you look in the mirror. Fortunately, I always bring my own illuminating mirror when I go travelling, for this kind of eventuality! The service was very good, and I like the touch where you can opt out of having your room cleaned and towels exchanged if staying 2N or more, in return for a free drinks voucher. The price is good also, was certainly among the more reasonably priced hotels in the city. Would definitely return!!! 100%.

We have reserved this hotel using a Bongo check and we have been pleasantly surprised by this new hotel, very conveniently located within a few hundred metres from the Central Train Station in Antwerp, that provides for everything a traveller needs in terms of accommodation and is at the top of technology as it states: it's connected. The staff is very nice and helpful and we really had a great stay. I warmly recommand it. And, as a little bonus, they are very accommodating when it comes to the four paw members of our families.

Very good, dog is welcome, breakfast is also very good. Nearby center of Antwerp.Service is good. We will stay here again when we go to Antwerp.

Highly recommended for those who want to have a good access to the city centre of Antwerp. The WiFi is great and well connected. The room is very comfortable and clean too. Easy access to the public transport system and restaurants. The convenience store is located on the next door. Enjoyed staying at this hotel.

Really cool place to stay. My teenage lads loved the vibe. Friendly staff. Free coffee in the lobby area which is full of comfy seating and lots of books to read. Excellent brewery over the road for drinks and food. Short tram ride into centre of Antwerp. Would highly recommend!

I had a very negative experience with the front desk staff that checked me in this past week. My husband and I booked a stay at this hotel back in April for 4 nights. They sent me an email stating that they weren't able to charge my credit card on the reservation, which made sense because we had forgotten we had just received a new card to replace the expired one. They asked that I look at my account, so they can charge a new card. If I failed to do that in 24 hours, then my booking would be cancelled. Approx 13 hours of receiving that email, I went in and updated the credit card information on the account and sent them an email confirming I did so. When I arrived at this hotel to check in a month later (which was this past week), the front desk staff told me that the reservation was cancelled. I showed them the email that they sent me and the one I had sent to them. I also showed them my original reservation number. They looked into it for a while, but they told me that ultimately the reservation was cancelled so they can't do anything. They were also all booked up on one of the four nights we were supposed to stay there, so they could only check us in for 2 nights (Thurs-Fri). Up to this point, I was confused but I wasn't upset. I understand things can happen, and I was eager to work this out. However, what really pushed me over the edge was the fact that the front desk staff showed no empathy for the situation I was in. I told them that I never received any email that my reservation was cancelled. I even asked if there were any other alternative hotels, as we were traveling from outside the country and did not know the area well. The staff person I was talking to responded with very little attempt at professionalism, and instead told me that we should solve this ”later” as I was holding up the line. I believe her words were along the lines of, ”you should turn around, look at the line.” When I asked her when ”later” would be, she let out a small laugh which was a very confusing response to what I thought was a valid question. This is when I was starting to feel incredulous. I wanted her assistance, but I got rudeness and condescension in return. I tried my best not to raise my voice even though I was getting frustrated, and I told her that I felt I was getting penalized for something that wasn't my fault. Still, there was no attempt to help me with the situation, and I felt like I was being waved away. At the very end of our interaction, the staff person told me that if there is a room that opens up on Sat they would contact me to let me know. I asked how they would contact me on updates (would it be through the hotel phone? My international number? Call, email, or text?) and I received a very frustrated look and a sigh in return, not a helpful response. I am still unsure why she acted this way, when I genuinely wanted to understand how I would be contacted. (And they never actually contacted me... even to tell me they were still all boo

I have taken a number of business trips and relied on this hotel. It is familiar but more importantly, based on the options I’ve seen, it is one of the best (if not the best) at this price point. Depending on your needs this can be an average or an excellent hotel. I am used to hotel rooms with kitchenettes or at least a microwave. Tip: there is a microwave & washer and dryer in lounge where vending machines are (2nd floor which they call 1st floor; there is a floor zero). Confusing, I know. Also, some rooms have two twin beds pushed together while others have a platform bed with one solid mattress (queen size, I believe). I recommended bringing cleaning wipes to wipe bathroom and other door handles/desk surfaces just to ensure you get the areas cleaning crews often miss. Otherwise the units are kept very neat and clean. There are mini fridges, coffeemakers and ironing facilities in each room. There are 2 or 3 restaurants in the hotel. There are two (slow) EV charges by main entrance. Lots of parking in front on side and behind hotel. Be careful entering and exiting the main lot. Lots of bicyclers and blind spots to even see cars. Despite my “warnings”, this is truly a great place to stay.
