Though it occupies a rather monumental Neoclassical building facing the Place des Martyrs, Juliana Hotel Brussels is residential in its scale and its atmosphere.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set on pedestrianised Place des Martyrs, the hotel offers a quiet base within a short stroll of the Grand-Place.
The rooms
Individually styled rooms pair high ceilings or mansard timber beams with Italian marble bathrooms, looking onto the square or courtyard garden.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated turquoise lap pool sits beneath skylights, lined with Brazilian blue marble and a Murano glass mosaic.
The sauna
Tiered wooden benches and an agate stone panel line the Finnish sauna, positioned beside the hammam steam room.
The gym
Cardio machines sit inside a glass-walled studio that looks straight out across the pool.
Dogs stay too.
Restaurant
Fisco at Juliana
Italian and Belgian dishes are served under an Art Deco-inspired ceiling and a decorative Metropolis clock.
At the table
Juliana Bar & Lounge mixes cocktails under murals by Philip and Kelvin Lavergne, framed by gold velvet seating.
How it began

Italian designer Eugenio Manzoni restored the listed neoclassical townhouse, integrating the owner's private fine art collection across all three floors.
