This was my first time staying in a hostel, and although I was a little worried at first, everything turned out great! The staff at the reception were super friendly and even helped me with my luggage, which I really appreciated. The rooms were clean and well-maintained. I chose a female-only dorm and had no issues with the other girls. The security cameras in the hallway gave me extra peace of mind, which was a nice touch. My luggage fit perfectly in the large lockers—both my suitcase and backpack had enough space. And the breakfast… was absolutely delicious! There were fresh pastries, cereals, honey, and even desserts. The staff kept refilling. The best part was that I could leave my luggage after checkout, which made my departure stress-free. The whole team was incredibly kind and attentive throughout my stay. If you're hesitant about trying this hostel—I highly recommend it! 😊

All hostels in Brussels

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

I got a wonderful, quiet room, and the bed was a normal one, not a bunk bed. Staff was friendly. Breakfast was good enough (Speculoos Creme :) Tidy and clean hostel. Easy to find, check in. Great location - close to Lidl, interesting district and two steps from the center. My backpack was stored for a few hours free of charge.

I stayed at Sleep Well for 2 night, It was fabulous, the hostel was really clean and safe. I didn't expect hostel will be so spacious and tidy, especiallythe bathroom. The breakfast was amazing, we had bread with different jam and spread, salad, tuna, scramble egg, boiled egg, fried sausage and drinks.... The location was excellent , it is just 5 mins walk from Rogier Metro station and city centre. Sleep Well has lot of qcommunal areas that you can sit and relax. This was the best hostel I have stayed for holiday
