Introduction

Dating back to 1908, the Crowne Plaza Brussels City Centre,'Le Palace' has a long and distinguished history and has been at the heart of Brussels daily life since the day it opened.

This summer the guest rooms are fully refurbished. The architect, Karin Espinosa Morel, turned to the Art Nouveau lines and curls of Gustav Klimt (1862-1918) for inspiration, echoing Le Palace's (1908) original turn-of-the-century style. She combined this with a cool modern touch and the latest comforts such as air conditioning, a strong streaming shower, data lines, a working desk with suitable lightning.

So stay in the very heart of Brussels, just a short walk from the tourist centre Grand Place and the train station. Beside the botanical gardens and close to the main shopping area, you can easily reach major exhibition centres and the European institutions.

Nouveau Taste

Something new, something different - definitely not a typical hotel restaurant!

In a city like Brussels with such an abundant choice of restaurants it is absolutely necessary to stand out, to offer something different.

Service, interior, music, lighting, decoration and table settings are all simple yet well thought through. The Nouveau Taste Team ensures a perfect service but has left the white gloves and the typical hotel restaurant uniforms aside for a more relaxed look.

'Innovative and just that little different' is what we could call the presentation of the different dishes, the main aim being to offer you a moment of fun, discovery and taste.
