Apartments in Brussels: your own kitchen and more space

Brussels has more than 250 apartments — almost half of all the accommodation in the city. These 7 are spread across Ixelles/Flagey, Saint-Gilles, and Schaerbeek, with reviews from verified guests. Heads up: unlike hotels, the price here doesn't always show up months in advance — we explain why below.

Is this category for you?

An apartment makes sense if you're traveling with family, in a group, or staying more than 3 nights: your own kitchen, more space, and sometimes a washing machine. If you're traveling solo or as a couple for just a few nights, a 3★ or 4★ can be simpler — no need to coordinate check-in with a host or think about grocery shopping.

EU Quarter — EU headquarters, ideal for business trips.
Saint-Josse / Rogier — Close to the centre, a good budget base.
Schaerbeek — Residential area to the north, lower prices.
Ixelles / Flagey — Neighborhood life, local bars and restaurants.
Louise — The shopping avenue, elegant and well-connected.
Saint-Gilles — Art nouveau and a young vibe, close to Midi.
Midi — Next to the station, convenient for Eurostar/Thalys.
Anderlecht — The most affordable: worth choosing carefully.
Molenbeek — Across the canal, the lowest prices.
Etterbeek — Residential, right next to the EU Quarter.
Watermael-Boitsfort — The greenest, next to the Sonian Forest.
Uccle — Quiet and residential, in the south of the city.

Distances for each neighborhood are measured in a straight line from the Historic Centre (Grand Place) — walking or public transport always takes a little longer.

Étangs d'Ixelles, the ponds of the Ixelles neighborhood in Brussels

1. Ixelles / Flagey Neighborhood life

Ixelles is one of the neighborhoods with the most apartments in Brussels — around one in ten — and the area with the most neighborhood life, near Place Flagey and its bars and restaurants. A good base for anyone who wants to experience the city like a local, not just the tourist circuit.

2. Saint-Gilles Close to Louise and Midi

One of the neighborhoods with the most apartments in the city, between Avenue Louise and Midi station. A neighborhood with its own character (a mix of art nouveau and an alternative vibe), well connected by public transport.

3. Schaerbeek Residential and affordable

Good apartment supply in the residential neighborhood furthest to the north. Lower prices, but worth choosing carefully: a quarter of this area's inventory belongs to a single operator with very uneven scores (from 1 to 8 out of 10). The two we recommend here are consistently well rated.

How apartment pricing works

Brussels apartments work differently from hotels: many hosts only open their calendar when the date is close, so the price appears once you choose your specific dates on Booking, not as a yearly average. As a reference point, a chain aparthotel like Citadines Toison d'Or starts at €99 a night with a full calendar, and a well-rated apartment like Modern Apartment First Floor held steady at €210 over the coming months. For the rest, we show you the most recent rate we found available — use it as a reference, not a fixed price.

Frequently asked questions

Why don't some apartments show a price for the whole year?
Unlike chain hotels, many owner-operated apartments on Booking only load the calendar a few months in advance. The real price appears once you choose specific dates on Booking, not as a yearly average.
Do Brussels apartments charge a separate tourist tax?
In many cases yes, and it's not always included in the price Booking shows. It's worth checking on each listing before booking.
Do all the apartments have a kitchen and a washing machine?
A kitchen is standard in this category; a washing machine isn't always included, and you have to check the details of each listing. Several of the ones we recommend confirm it in their real reviews.
