Prachtig decor, warme ontvangst

Ons verblijf in het Train Hostel was fantastisch! Het hostel is prachtig ingericht en het thema is bijzonder mooi uitgewerkt. Er zijn enorm veel verschillende opties voor verschillende soorten kamers, dus er is voor elk wat wils. Een bijzonder warme ontvangst en erg schone kamers.

Really cool place full of train history and kitsch

The hostel is a really cool place; I wish we had stayed longer to explore it more. The breakfast was lovely; the neighborhood interesting but a bit sketchy.

Un voyage au pays des songes...

Une immersion dans le monde des trains qui fait de cet hôtel un lieu vraiment atypique et original. Le personnel est top! manque quand même la climatisation même si il y a un ventilateur disponible.

No lo recomiendo!!

Buena ubicación a una cuadra y media del metro. Precio elevado vs calidad. Habitación con mantencion deficiente. El desayuno, un desastre, solo tienen lo mínimo, incluso menos (sin mantequilla).

設備は給水器があるだけで、ポットなどはありませんでした。 Wi-fiも少し弱めで、共有スペースなら問題ないですが自分の部屋でインスタなどを見る時はちょっと大変でした。 とにかく安く泊まりたい方にはおすすめです。

2/10 Poor

Best avoided

Extremely rude staff who treat you like you're a criminal before you've even said a word, dark rooms with wafer-thin, uncomfortable bedding, sewer smell coming from the bathroom... The train theme is unfortunately not fun enough to make up for the shortcomings of this hotel. Nice restaurant though, with friendly staff who seem just as confused as the guests by the behaviour of the hotel management team.

長期滞在の人で自炊をしたい人はキッチンがないのでおすすめできません。お湯を沸かすものやフォークやスプーンもないので、完全に外食になると思います。

ドミトリーは三段で中段と上段は特に狭く感じます。さらにハシゴで登るのですが、難しいです。また、時間帯によるのか夜はwifi がかなり繋がりにくいです。コンセントは各ベットにあるわけではなかったので、あるといいと思います。さらに私が利用させていただいた部屋の他の人が友人を朝早くから連れてきて、洗面台で化粧をしていて困りました。

As a family with three kids we experienced a pleasant stay in one of the bigger family rooms. Located next to Schaerbeek railway station it does not only fit in the neighbourhood, but is also a practical location for visiting Brussels with kids. A visit to Train World cannot be missed and public transportation is nearby. The hotel itself has a nifty designed interior with model trains and railway signs representing Belgian train history. The rooms are neat and sturdy, beds are clean, but here and there some maintenance could improve the overall quality of our room. Best of all the friendly and cooperative staff made our experience light-hearted.

Cute hostel

Overall this is a good hostel. The decor is really cute and the common areas are really nice. The breakfast is a bit pricey at 8 euro, and during the day you can’t really be in common areas because it looks like they’re doing renovations , but in general it’s a decent place to stay if visiting Brussels

This place is a bit far from city but easily commutable. It was very neat and the staff were friendly. Would recommed this place if you are okay to stay a bit far from city. It has a nice bar just 5 mins walk from the hostel and the area was also secure.

Interesting theme for kids and train lovers

My child and I got to stay in an empty dormitory room instead of a twin room. Bunk beds made us feel like sleeping in the overnight train and it was fun. But the bed was very narrow and sealing was too low for adult. At least, children must love it.

C'est bien, propre, bonne literie. chambres originales. Petit déjeuner 8 euro tout à fait honorable. Le gros défaut, c'est une amende de 20 € si vous arrivez tardivement. C'est beaucoup et c'est injuste pour une chambre déjà payée, alors qu'il y a encore des gens un peu partout dans l'hôtel et quelqu'un à l'accueil. A changer rapidement.
