Hotel Taormina Brussels Airport

“Welcoming family run hotel”

I booked one night pre-paid through hotels.com (US$111 plus €5 city tax). I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, the check-in was quick and easy and the welcome warm and friendly. Lorenzo, the son of the family who built the hotel, was great. He apologized that my room (106) was facing the stre... lisää

I booked one night pre-paid through hotels.com (US$111 plus €5 city tax). I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, the check-in was quick and easy and the welcome warm and friendly. Lorenzo, the son of the family who built the hotel, was great. He apologized that my room (106) was facing the street. However, I hardly noticed the traffic on the street outside. The bed was very comfortable, wifi fast, and many stations in multiple languages on the large flatscreen TV. The shower was excellent! Lorenzo booked a taxi that arrived on time. The next time I overnight in Brussels I look forward to again staying at Taormina. It is evident that the family has put their heart into this place. I also had dinner at the attached restaurant and the Lasagna was fantastic. Alan MacDonald

“Pleasant mid range hotel, convenient for Brussels Airport ”

The Hotel Taormina, Zaventem is a small, pleasant hotel within about a twelve minute drive of Brussels Airport. The staff are friendly and charming and the rooms are comfortable. At €137.50 per night it’s certainly not cheap, but that’s probably to do with proximity to the airport. The parking... lisää

The Hotel Taormina, Zaventem is a small, pleasant hotel within about a twelve minute drive of Brussels Airport. The staff are friendly and charming and the rooms are comfortable. At €137.50 per night it’s certainly not cheap, but that’s probably to do with proximity to the airport. The parking behind the hotel and WiFi in the room are both free. A buffet breakfast is available for €15 extra and is served in the associated restaurant, L’Ossobuco. Evening meals in the restaurant are also available to non-residents and there is a pleasant patio area to sit out in if the weather is good. Again, the staff are friendly and welcoming and, as well as being delicious, my portion of duck breast was the largest I’d ever seen!

“Great option for 1 or 2 nights close to airport”

Stayed for 3 nights as a base to explore Brussels and Belgium. Price is reasonable with free parking. Rooms are plain and minimal decoration and furniture, with a smallish wall-mounted TV (which had pretty good variety of programming). The bathroom was large in my room but this is not standard... lisää

Stayed for 3 nights as a base to explore Brussels and Belgium. Price is reasonable with free parking. Rooms are plain and minimal decoration and furniture, with a smallish wall-mounted TV (which had pretty good variety of programming). The bathroom was large in my room but this is not standard. The oddest thing was a mini-fridge inside a floor level cupboard which could NOT be plugged in because no outlet at the back for the electrical plug. I had to move the fridge closer to an outlet which forced it to be either in front of (and in the way of) the desk or wardrobe. Better than no fridge but very silly. Staff at front desk were super helpful and friendly. Bartender much less friendly whom only spoke French. Room door was not squarely hung properly as one could see a sliver of light inside the room above the door. Another negative was only one window that opened outward at the top (about 1 foot max). For a room that can get stuffy without air con. this is inadequate to make the room more comfortable. Apparently some superior rooms do have a/c. Front desk claimed that fans were placed in non-a/c rooms but not in my room. There was significant street noise at all hours even with my room on the side rather than street front, including garbage collection. Rooms with a/c can probably drown out most street noise. Front desk promised 24 hour service but no one was on duty at 4:45 when I departed. Just left without checking on account status. Certainly great for 1 or 2 nights. Any longer is not exactly recommended.

A lot of noise from the road and very uncomfortable bed. Breakfast was ok . No elevator for the first floor as well and very narrow staircase .
