We arrived about 8:00 pm. The office was closed and our key was waiting in a drop box as expected. Our cute LITTLE chalet was very basic with two hard backed chairs and a very small uncomfortable. After a long drive the first order of business is the bathroom. The worst I have ever seen! Someone had been sick and it had not been cleaned. No office staff and the need for quick relief meant I had to clean the toilet with wet toilet paper and bar soap. GROSS1 The carpet was stained, one bed had no linen (not the main bed), the fridge was frozen over. The balcony had a great view, but the plastic chairs were covered with mold. An old building in need of lots of work. And a no refund policy. One of the two worse hotels we have ever visited. Big M

We recently spent 3 glorious days at the Roaring River Chalets. It was just what we needed for a relaxing and quiet vacation. We were in the three bedroom unit and it was wonderful. It had a large living room, dining area, and kitchen stocked with all pots and pans, dishes, etc. This is one of the newly renovated and decorated units and it was quite lovely and clean. My favorite part was going out onto the deck each morning with my cup of coffee and book for quiet solitude. All the chalets have decks over the river with the forest beyond that. While secluded the chalets are a short drive into the wonderful little town of Blowing Rock which has wonderful little shops and lots of great restaurants. If you want a little more excitement (we didn't), Boone, NC is only 8 miles away. While there, X, the new manager, walked us around to show us the changes they have made and continue to make. They are upgrading and redecorating all the chalets and replacing old carpet with new hardwood floors, curtains, paint, etc. Some of the one bedroom units will soon have fireplaces and whirlpool tubs that look right out onto the river! All in all it was a wonderful visit and we hope to return.

Comfort Inn Erasme

Comfort Inn Erasme

The Comfort Inn Erasme is an excellent hotel suitable for business travellers and families alike, located 12 miles southwest of central Brussels in the neighbourhood of Erasmus. Only 200 meters from the Erasmus metro station, the hotel is almost directly connected to all parts of Brussels by a 30-minute ride into central Brussels.

The hotel is located near the Erasmus hospital, in a quiet area with little-to-no traffic noise. Upon entering the hotel, you will be greeted by the kind Belgian staff, who will promptly check you in and lead you to your room.

I arrived to a very nice, modern room with two twin beds. The bedding was comfortable, but there were no extra pillows or bedding for those who prefer more. The beds were also very close together – only a foot or so of space apart. Since I was staying with my Grandmother, this made our night a bit too close for comfort!

The bathrooms were spacious and clean, and we experience no problems with any of it. The showers were warm and efficient, and there were complimentary toiletries (a godsend for anyone backpacking in Europe).

The television hosted a good selection of channels, both in French, German, Flemish, and English. CNN International was also present, meaning we could easily keep track of events going on back home.

The views from our room were poor, mainly because there is nothing of interest to see from the second floor looking out to Erasmus neighbourhood besides trees and a highway off in the distance.

One drawback to staying here was there was no table and chairs! This meant that we had to eat our take-out dinner on our beds, which was a bit messy. There are only beds, a couple shelves, a television, and a luggage rack in the room.

The hotel’s redeeming feature is its luscious, far-from-English breakfasts, featuring delightful Belgian cheeses, scrumptious meats, warm French bread, freshly-squeezed grapefruit, orange, and apple juices, an array of yogurts and cereals, as well as buttery croissants. It is served buffet style in the restaurant adjacent to the lobby. The breakfast is included in the hotel rate, which are around $60 for a room at the time of my travel in May 2005.

I would highly recommend this hotel to all travellers. Aside from the few dismal discrepancies in the room, the hotel has great service, a delicious, moderately-priced on-site restaurant, and provides a very good value for backpackers and all travellers. It’s a great convenient location, too, meaning less wandering around and more time sightseeing in the beautiful Belgian capital.
