Jam

THE STORY: Tucked away in a former art school from the 1970s, smack dab in the middle of the Châtelain district and run by the Nelson hotel group, the Jam hotel is dusting off classic Brussels accommodations with its version of brutalist interior design! The bedrooms? They all feature a very industrial style of course – Tolix chairs, brick walls, concrete ceilings – ranging from the simplest single room to the big dormitory, not to mention the “ultra” room for groups of four and the “mega” room for six-person families… Overall, it’s the perfect spot for a good night’s sleep before heading to the rooftop for a swim in the long, heated pool, the Kaiju restaurant for a few delicious Asian plates, or even a cocktail at the rooftop bar Perché, with picture-perfect views of the city below… I wanna jam it with you! Double room starting at €149 a night. // Eddie Muffin
