This hotel was so cool! I was worried that it would be loud in our room since we overlooked a very busy street but the windows provided excellent sound proofing. I loved the styling of the rooms and hotel. Bed was comfortable too. Zero issues.

The room is just ok. The arriving experience wasn't good because the arrival hall is a very busy restaurant with alot of parties going on. You have to walk through the loud restaurant to arrive at a very small check in counter. Plus side is, you won't hear the noise in the hotel room.
Location is great

Excellent location , staff, and breakfast!
Crave Hotel is a unique place to stay; walk to most all important sites and easy transport.
Dinner was perfect for light meal or fancy celebration.
Location is just at Grand Place historic district, so taxi gets you almost to the entrance.

Wow this hotel is beautiful and great location... The room was very small but had everything you need. Hallways smelled amazing. It had a ceiling fan and I loved it to sleep. I will stay again comfortable and location is right where all the shopping, museums are everything walking distance.

Lovely hotel walkable from the train. Fantastic art throughout the hotel. A wonderful assortment of breakfast choices with a Mediterranean flair. The roasted veggies were fantastic! Walkable to parks and museums.

We wished we had the opportunity to stay longer than a night because the hotel was in a great location. Shopping and dining was just beyond the doors. Best surprise were the Cuberdon candy left in our room! What an amazing little morsel. Never had such an amazing, delicious candy before. Made my whole trip! So sad we can’t get them in America!

Great hotel in the heart of Brussels. Everything is pretty easy to walk to from the hotel. The Brussels central train station is conveniently close by for a day trip to Ghent. Great staff at the hotel.

A great hotel in the centre. Intriguing layout, decoration, secret passages and rooms (if you're nosy enough), and very quiet at night. Would definitely go back, but probably won't, because Brussels itself is a disappointing, confused and uninspiring mess. That said, if you're there because you have to be, then Craves will not disappoint! And the staff were superb.
