by Sanda Ferreira, Content Manager & Hotel Researcher
Brussels is a fun and multicultural European capital with enticing charms, book-length beer menus, freshly baked waffles, top-tier art exhibitions, and a fascinating dining scene. This city is incredibly inviting during the colder months.


Belgium's capital always has many things to do, but we’re not just discussing the city center. Wander out a little further for hidden gems and beautiful parks. Autumn colors pop out in all the pretty gardens throughout the city, plus local markets and events of the season. 

If you want to have a great time and enjoy Autumn vibes fully, look at one of these cool hotels we picked for you as our autumn favorites.

Zoom Hotel is a 37-room hotel comfortably situated for exploring the thriving Ixelles and Saint-Gilles areas. The guest rooms are all individually designed with a unique photograph of Brussels taken by a local artist as their centerpiece. The theme of photography permeates the entire hotel's quirky design. Another highlight is an in-house bar with a great selection of Belgian craft beers and natural wines.

The 198 cool suites, categorized from 'cozy' to 'biggy,' are decked out in a funky 1970s style. Think velvet sofas, rounded-edged wooden fixtures, and vibrant rugs. A restaurant, bar, and rooftop terrace have great Brussels skyline views.
