Technogym cardio equipment and weight benches sit on the first floor behind ornate white-framed mirrors.
Mister Blue Bar
Royal blue velvet armchairs sit beside the bar, where an illuminated surrealist mural spans the wall.
Restaurant
Maison Louise
Chefs work in the open kitchen of this Belgian-French brasserie, where chevron parquet floors run past a modern fireplace.

Le Jardin Suspendu spans a 400-square-metre courtyard garden, where guests take drinks beside a sculptural water fountain.

The building spent three decades as a formal Sofitel before a 2022 overhaul remade the interiors in tribute to Brussels surrealism.
