Mr and Mrs Christo Check In!

After a hectic day at work, Blair and I caught the Eurostar for a weekend trip to Brussels.

Having lived in Brussels for several years, this was almost like going home for me and I was really looking forward to showing Blair all of my favourite places.

As I never had to use a hotel in Brussels before picking up the right one for this trip was going to be tricky. Too much information is not always a good thing and after spending days fretting about the right location and ambiance Blair finally had enough and took matters into his own hands picking the Jolly hotel du Grand Sablon (http://www.jollyhotels.it/eng/ALBERGHI_scheda_master.asp?Obj=1295).

What a hit! The hotel was beautiful, our room was absolutely huge and the breakfast was excellent. Indeed, the hotel was so perfect that Blair was willing to overlook the fact that he was referred to as "Mr Christodoulou" by the reception staff!
