On the northern side of France, Belgium is at the crossroads of Western Europe with the majority of West European capitals within 1,000 km of Brussels which is Belgium's capital city and the seat of both the European Union and NATO.

When it comes to Belgium there are no better words to sum up the locality than food lovers’ heaven. Enjoying a fiesta of mussels in Brussels, a meaty main and, on the dessert menu, there’s the option of the famous Belgium Waffles found at the street stores. Want more? Sure, take a day trip down to the small town Brugge - every chocolate lover’s heaven where you’ll find unlimited supplies chocolate in all sizes and shapes which can be enjoyed with a glass of mulled wine.

Apart from food there’s also plenty to do: you can enjoy the sites, cathedrals and if Venice is too far, then a ride down the canal in Brugge is just as romantic.

Until the 25th October 2007, you can take a short trip to Belgium to eat and see it all, because Novotel Brussels Centre Tour Noire Hotel is currently offering 3 nights accommodation for the price of two AND a hot buffet breakfast for two. Prices start from 76 Euros per night.
