Oasis of tranquility in the center of Brussels
The Dominican is an elegant four-star hotel located on the site of a former Dominican monastery in the beating heart of Brussels . Enter through classic cast-iron doors, walk through the long cloisters along thick walls and imposing columns and feel the past come back to life. Stay in an attractive room or suite that tells you about the rich history of The Dominican on the one hand, but that breathes modern design on the other. Discover the capital of Belgium and return for a delicious dinner in the restaurant in the ancient courtyard. Take a seat on the velvety chairs of the hip bar for a drink before sinking into the lovely fluffy pillows of your comfortable bed and dreaming of the next day in this unique place. Where the world can't find you...
