Superb!!!
travelled by Eurstar to Brussels-Midi and walked to the Hotel Jolly Sablon which took about 20 minutes. I wouldn't advise anyone else doing this,I'd recommend you get a Taxi, cost about 6 euro. The reason for this, is that outside the station you come across a very seedy area. dirty old men walking out of strip bars and coming on to women without a care.
However the Hotel Jolly Sablon is a superb place to stay. 10 minute walk to the Grand Place where there are numerous amounts of bars and restaurants. About another 5 minutes around the corner, you have the delight of shopping with great shops for designer clothes.
Don't travel to Brussels without a map, as you will not find the hidden delights. Recommend buying the Rough Guide map to Brussels, which pin points all good restaurants, shopping and places of interest. Try Chez Lyon near the Grand place for a good selection of belgian cuisine.
Hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did.
