Although within a short walk of the bustling Grand-Place, the Rocco Forte Amigo is a haven of calm and comfort, and claims to be one of Brussels' most luxurious hotels. Furnished in Spanish Renaissance style with rich tapestries and antiques, the hotel offers a friendly, personalised welcome, a restaurant and cocktail bar, as well as 176 individually decorated rooms. Each room is air conditioned and has modem points and mini-bar. There are also six meeting rooms for up to 100 people and the Salle des Ambassadeurs banqueting suite. These days, the seven luxurious suites are for stars (past guests have included Helmut Kohl and Harrison Ford) but prisoners once stayed here. A prison in the 16th century, the Amigo only opened as a hotel in 1957.
