Hotel Features. The lobby evokes 19th-century grandeur with bronze marble, gold columns, and huge chandeliers. Built in 1895, Metropole Hotel is the city's oldest hotel. The baroque-style L'Alban Chambon restaurant features stained-glass windows, ochre marble columns, and parquet floors. The restaurant serves French dishes like risotto with Saint-Jacques scallops and wild boar in a sesame-seed crust. Champagne is available in the bar. Opening onto a heated, canopied terrace, Cafe Metropole serves light meals and pastries.

Expert Tip. The Parc de Bruxelles' 19th-century formal gardens are a short walk along tree-lined avenues from Metropole Hotel.
This hotel is renovating its lobby through December 1, 2010 (completion dates subject to change). Work will involve art restoration and stained glass, and the bar will be redecorated. The bar will remain open.
