The Usual Brussels

The Usual Brussels is a boutique hotel in the heart of the city, designed around the belief that great hospitality, considered design and sustainability belong together. Set within a thoughtfully restored building, the property combines contemporary comfort with a sense of place, offering an experience that feels both familiar and quietly distinctive.

The hotel features a range of room types, each finished with the same attention to detail. Beds are dressed with 100% organic bedding, Auping mattresses designed for circularity and Yumeko pillows filled with recycled down. Private bathrooms include generous rainfall showers and 100% vegan amenities as standard. Smart room controls, energy-efficient air-conditioning, high speed Wi-Fi and LED televisions with casting bring the technology you need into a calm, design-led environment.

At ground level, The U Bar is the social heart of the property. Serving locally inspired food and drinks throughout the day, the menu is plant-forward, seasonal, and sourced as locally as possible, with bold flavours and a strong point of view. Open from morning coffee to evening drinks, with no reservations needed, The U Bar welcomes both hotel guests and locals alike.

Sustainability runs through every layer of the building. The Usual Brussels is certified BREEAM In-Use Outstanding, placing it among only a handful of hotels worldwide to hold this rating, with exceptional scores across Health and Wellbeing (88.37%), Resources (100%) and Land Use and Ecology (100%). The property is also Green Key certified, off the gas grid, powered by 100% certified renewable energy, and equipped with rooftop solar panels and water-saving fixtures throughout. Single-use plastics have been eliminated across operations, with seven recycling streams in place across public and guest areas.
