About

Made In Catherine

Made In Catherine is a small, characterful hotel set in the historic heart of Brussels. With just 16 rooms, it offers a more personal stay than the typical chain hotel, and its location on the Quai au Bois à Bruler places you within easy reach of the city's main sights.

Every room is individually decorated, drawing inspiration from different countries and regions around the world. The hotel is adults-only, so guests can expect a calm, quiet atmosphere, and the team is known for being welcoming and helpful.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Adults-only policy — The hotel does not accommodate children, so it may not suit families travelling with kids. This is a deliberate choice that keeps the atmosphere calm and adult-focused.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this isn't the place—the hotel's policy is no pets on the premises.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only available from 15:00 to 23:59, so late arrivals after midnight won't be able to check in until the next day. Plan your arrival accordingly.
  • Small scale may mean limited availability — With only 16 rooms, availability can be tight, especially during peak seasons or events. Booking well in advance is recommended.

“My earlier trips to Brussels were nice, but this place went above and beyond. The cozy room was beautifully decorated, and being so close to the Christmas market made it a lovely festive escape.”

“The staff and the owner were genuinely kind, helpful, and welcoming. The decoration is outstanding! We were lucky to get the Tibet room, and the view from the private terrace was lovely.”

“The decoration is fun and kitschy—we had the Tahiti room. The full breakfast buffet was very good, with plenty of tasty options. The staff were pleasant, and it's very handy to the metro. The Grand Place is an easy walk away.”

04 — Location

Getting around Brussels

The property sits in Brussels.

Grand Place: Brussels' famous central square is a 0.6 km walk from the hotel—about 8 minutes on foot. The enclosed cobblestone square is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a must-see.

Place Sainte-Catherine: The hotel sits right on Place Sainte-Catherine, a lively area lined with restaurants, cafés, and bars. It's a great spot for dining and people-watching, yet the quai itself remains quiet.

Metro access: The metro station is just in front of the hotel, providing quick connections to the rest of the city. This makes it easy to reach other neighbourhoods and sights.
