About the place

Hostel
Very good 7.1 star expand_more

Generation Europe is right at the thick of the action, just a 15-minute walk from Grand Place and a 10-minute stroll from the atmospheric Place Saint-Géry, Place Sainte-Catherine and the Dansaert district.

Perfect for partying, doing a spot of tourism and exploring new things!

The hostel is the ideal base for the Iris Festival, the Brussels Summer Festival, Couleur Café, Belgian Pride, Rock Werchter, Tomorrowland, the Flower Carpet, the 20 km of Brussels, and much more besides.
And while you’re here, why not take a trip further afield to visit the Lion’s Mound and the battlefield of the Battle of Waterloo (only 20km from Brussels)

The hostel is open to solo backpackers, friends, families, and groups of all shapes and sizes.

Very good
Good luck for the host team!

The staff is welcoming and attentive. The rooms are spacious and functional. The kitchen area is very nice. The fittings - bar, terraces - are very nice for breakfast or coffee. Organic breakfast and local produce: what more?

Good
very clean, friendly and good atmosphere

When we arrived we had a problem with the administration and we were at least an hour and a half waiting to be given our room. Less that we were very comfortable, the mattress was very old and we changed it.
