A great place to stay in Brussels.
Everything was very good except for the fact that I could not get into the hotel upon arrival. Evidently I was supposed to receive a code but never got it. Thankfully, the owner/manager answered the phone and was able to buzz me in. I should add that the breakfast was astonishing. In short, one mix up but a high level of hospitality. I plan to go back, making sure to get a code to get in. Outstanding location too!

Cute boutique hotel. Similar to an airbnb. As long as you expect that, then your expectations will be met. Sophie was fabulous and breakfast was delicious. Lovely distance to the heart of the city and quiet place to sleep. Lovely place

Great position
Location really close to city centre. Everything walkable. Property fab and Sophie was lovely. Nothing too much trouble. Only issue was the small square opposite which seems to attract lively young drunks at 3 am.

Put up a sign showing where the keypad is!
It is difficult to find the key code pad as it is hidden behind the grill. Fine if you know it is there, not so good if you don't. This meant needing to phone up to get directions on how to get in the building. Not great, if you just want to get it. Otherwise, a comfortable stay.

Central location and friendly service
Good and very friendly service. The room was clean, tidy and well organised. If you have a heavy luggage you may need help to carry it upstairs. Great location and in walking distance to transportation and most major attractions.

The place is in the heart of Brussels, 5 minutes walking to grand place. The hostess was very nice and friendly. I truly enjoyed staying at this hotel. You can barely know there’s someone else in the other rooms because is very private.

Lovely stay
Happy Guesthouse was a terrific surprise. I booked because of its central location, and I was delighted by the service. This was a return trip to Brussels, and Sophie pointed out some new places farther afield for me to discover. As for the room it was clean, welcoming and exactly as pictured. Breakfast was thoughtfully prepared and very tasty with local ingredients and always with fresh squeezed juice.

A VERY cute hotel- walking distance to the city center and train station. The furniture and the little details of this place really make it unique. (However, note there are narrow stairs to the rooms!) The breakfast was delicious!!! Sophie was so sweet and even marked our map for us to show us the best sites of the city. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful Room & Host
Sophie is the sweetest! She welcomed us with a city guide to all the best places to see in Brussels. The room was immaculate. We did a Euro trip including 4 cities and HAPPY Guesthouse was by far our favorite hotel.

Nice quirky boutique hotel
A bit of an odd arrangement due to not having a front desk or staff there all the time, but it worked for me. The owner and the staff I did meet were all excellent and helpful. The wifi is very good, and (although this will only be useful for a few people) the rooms are large enough to unroll a yoga mat despite the smallish size. There's no elevator and the stairs are narrow, which might be a problem for some people getting luggage up to their room.

This is a nice place, but probably better for a single person with smaller luggage. We were a couple on a long trip with big suitcases. The stairs up to the rooms are very narrow and steep, the room and bathroom/shower is quite tight/small ("cozy"). Also, the location is rather noisy as we had the room on the first floor. On the bright side, the host Sophie is very friendly, and the breakfast was wonderful each morning.

Charming guesthouse with a perfect location
My husband and I stayed at Happy Guesthouse over a long weekend in celebration of my birthday. It was our first time together in the city and we felt like we hit the jackpot with this place. It's in a great location just a few mins walk to Grand Place and city centre but also it's just nestled right near the lovely area of Sablon. There are only a handful of rooms with one suite on each level of the guesthouse (so if you can't climb stairs, it's probably not a great option for you). The staff is incredibly attentive, flexible and willing to help. We adored the breakfast every morning in the bright and open sitting area with some homemade, local treats as well as standard European breakfast staples. The room itself (we were on the top floor) was spectacular. A large, comfy bed, a desk a dressing area and a modest but well laid out bathroom made it a great spot. The roof is pitched but there was a skylight that was great for seeing a view of the area as well a small terrace for reading or catching some fresh air. Overall we loved this spot, wouldn't hesitate to come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and cozy stay in the centre city of Brussels!

スタッフの方がいつも笑顔で朝も出先から帰って来たときも気持ちが良かった。 近くで工事をしていたけれど、基本的に夜は静かなのでゆっくり滞在することができた。 朝食はシンプルでフルーツやヨーグルトはなし。ブリオッシュがとてもおいしかった。 階段がとても狭いので大きな荷物がある人はちょっと大変かもしれない。
