Brussels Itineraries

"The square is paved and level; stick to the outer edges where there are benches and fewer crowds.If walking is tiring, sit at an outdoor café (covered if needed) to admire the square—many cafés have step-free access.Bathrooms and taxi ranks are close by on Rue des Harengs and surrounding streets—keep a small card with the hotel address for easy taxi returns."

"Visit Grand Place with a stroller but avoid the very center if events are set up; stand near the edge to let kids watch pigeons safely.Manneken Pis is a quick stop; pick a less crowded side street for photos and be ready for brief queues.There are nearby public toilets and baby-changing facilities inside larger cafés around the square — ask staff politely."

"Reserve a table or arrive early to nab a terrace spot — perfect for group photos and people-watching.Share a few main dishes and starters rather than individual mains — more social and easier to split the bill.If someone prefers low-key, the interior has quieter corners; ask staff when booking to accommodate both lively and quieter friends."

"Ask for a high chair and a simple kids' option (pasta, chicken or fries) — La Roue d'Or is used to families and flexible with requests.If someone has allergies, mention them when ordering; the kitchen is accommodating and can advise on safe choices.Reserve a table in advance when possible (early dinner slot) to avoid waiting with tired kids — table by the window is often slightly calmer."

"Choose upstairs seating or ask for a quiet corner table to avoid standing in the shop area while sampling chocolates.Staff can pre-select small tasting boxes for minimal decision-making and easy transport back to the hotel.If mobility is limited, request assistance at the entrance; the Sablon shops are near several taxi stops for a short ride back to your hotel."

"Reserve a table in advance and request step-free seating near the entrance for easy access.Ask the staff for a smaller portion or a split dish if you prefer lighter eating; they’re used to accommodating dietary and mobility needs.There are accessible restrooms; mention any mobility aid so staff can guide you to the most convenient entrance."

"The museum provides elevators and benches on each floor—plan for a seated visit and request an elevator key at the cloakroom if needed.Audio guides are optional; if you prefer less standing, ask the staff for the quietest route and sit between rooms to break up the visit.Book tickets in advance for timed entry to avoid queues; the museum also has accessible restrooms and staff trained to assist visitors with reduced mobility."

"The arcade is flat and covered—ideal if it’s drizzling; benches and café seating are available every few minutes for rests.Visit the lower-level galleries and the chocolatiers early to avoid crowds; there are ramps/elevators for step-free access to most shops.If you prefer minimal walking, sit at a café (e.g., in the arcade) and enjoy people-watching—ask staff for a quiet corner table."

"Reserve a small corner table when booking for a cozier, more private experience.Share a starter and main so you both get to taste multiple local specialties without getting too full.Ask the waiter for a wine suggestion to pair with the house specialties — a small boutique bottle often elevates the meal."
