Part of the fabric of Brussels for 500 years, Hotel Amigo presides over the city’s charming cultural centre, just steps from the Grand

Place. Looking up at the Hôtel de Ville’s spire, down at historic cobblestone streets, Amigo is the geographic, social and cultural

heart of Belgium’s capital – filled with local life, colour and art.

We invite you to make the most of your stay in and out of our walls. To dine on outstanding Italian food, sip ice-capped cocktails and

listen to live jazz. To host extraordinary events, from elaborate parties and weddings to state-of-the-art conferences; from quiet dinners à

deux to banquets for 100 – all with the signature Rocco Forte service.

To explore Brussels – from the Mont des Arts and Le Sablon district, just by the hotel, to the spectacular surrounding cities of Belgium.

To discover the great art, cuisine and style the city is famed for. And to entrust our dedicated events team and specialist concierges

to make your experience at Hotel Amigo unforgettable.
