Compliance Summary

General Overview

The Crowne Plaza Brussels Airport hotel is a 4-star business hotel that overlooks a 3-hectare park and attracts both business and leisure guests. Due to its airport location and 17 meeting rooms, the hotel principally positions itself as a business hotel with a significant focus on meetings. With 315 bedrooms and flexible meeting spaces with a capacity of up to 350 theatre style, the hotel offers a range of spaces for the different types and sizes of meetings from the healthcare sector.

 

Location

The hotel is centrally located in a business district, 5 minutes from Brussels International Airport, and offers guests use of a complimentary airport shuttle that takes 5 minutes to and from the airport. Train connections are available at the airport or within 10 to 15-minute walking distance in the village of Zaventem. A private car park is present in front of the hotel and holds 170 parking spots. Part of the parking can be reserved for meeting delegates upon request. The car park is payable but can be negotiated and included in day delegate rates.

 

Design

The venue’s website shows a genuine representation of the modern styling and décor of both the interior as well as the exterior of the hotel.  The hotel has an impressive atrium, bringing light into the spacious lobby. This area can be used for small exhibitions (200m²) but cannot be privatised.

 

Meeting Space

The meeting space is offered on two main meeting floors, both with a central foyer where coffee breaks are served. The ground floor holds 4 meeting rooms and a co-working space, with the largest meeting room Merode, holding up to 350 guests in theatre style but can also be divided into 6 small or 3 mid-size meeting rooms. 

At the park level, there are 8 further meeting rooms that can be divided into smaller meeting rooms.

The restaurant holds a private dining room, which can also be used for informal meetings and is soundproof to avoid disturbance from the main restaurant. 

All meeting space has natural daylight, is functional, and business-like, and could be described as traditional in style. 

 

Bedrooms

315 guestrooms are available across 5 categories and 6 floors. There are 258 standard rooms, spread over the first 5 floors, and vary in size between 26m² and 30m². All rooms offer a laptop-friendly safe, coffee/tea facilities, an iron/ironing board, a working desk, and a seating area. All guestrooms are designed to be functional with wood accents and muted colour schemes throughout. There is no attempt to provide luxury touches or technologies.

 

Restaurant

The hotel’s restaurant, open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, is located below the ground floor, overlooking and giving access to the park. It provides a buffet breakfast, a la carte lunch, and dinner options for individuals and groups. Restaurant Craft was renovated in 2021 and can seat up to 100 guests in a modern setting as well as an additional 44 in the private dining room. The restaurant can be privatized upon request.

 

Experience

Brussels is the location of many Global healthcare companies; therefore, the hotel has experience in holding many internal as well as HCP-focused meetings for the healthcare sector.

 

Fitness

Located on the lobby level, only hotel guests have access to the fitness facilities, which include free weights and fitness machines, a sauna, and a steam bath.

Compliance Hotspot

This venue is located in a city renowned for its historic and leisure attractions however, the hotel is located some distance from these areas and has minimal impact on the venue’s business proposition.

To attract the weekend leisure market this venue may promote its leisure facilities and nearby activities. These supplement its business services, which can stand alone and are only modestly impacted by facilities and activities aimed toward weekend guests. 

The fitness center is located at the lobby level, however, is not visible from within the lobby or meeting areas. Whilst described as their 'On-Site Spa', there is no pool, and individual spa treatments are not available.
