Hôtel Solvay

A fascinating place, lovingly restored and privately owned. We were allowed to walk the central part of the building for 40 minutes and peek into some of the grand stately rooms. This must be the most magnificent of all remaining great art nouveau buildings in Brussels. Book early as it is usually sold out and be sure to show up on time.

One of the best of the Horta ‘houses’ I’ve been to. The details are magnificent, the stain glass windows stunning.Everything has been restored with such care for the detail. The woodwork and wallpaper is immaculate. They have a very strange policy that you can only take photos in the last ten minutes? Of the tour, while everyone is in the same area so makes it difficult to to do so.

How on earth can a house be so beautiful? - these are my thoughts while on the landing stairs of Hotel Solvay. Of course Horta never disappoints. If you want to be inspired and step back to history on this well-preserved space of luscious metalwork and butterfly canopy, come and have a visit (by reservation) in Hotel Solvay.

Absolute masterpiece and a must-visit place if you're in Brussels. A lot of visitors and taking photos is allowed only 10 minutes before the tour ends( it's 40 minutes overall ). Make sure to reserve a visit on the website.

Uniquely preserved art nouveau house by Horta. This is not a museum, but World Heritage: the house is still in the same condition as it was more than a century go, furniture included

House of super-rich industrialist Armand Solvay, inventor and developer of soda chemicals, designed by Victor Horta, master of Art Nouveau architects in Belgium, one of his early designs in the style. Total work of art inside and out, with no expense spared. Usually the interior is closed to the public, but certain days during the year there are tours, coincident with those of other Art Nouveau buildings in Brussels. Located on grand Haussmanian tree-lined avenue, the façade is not to be missed on any tour of Art Nouveau or architecture in the Belgian capital.

A gem in the heart of Brussels
