Description du poste

Ouvert depuis mai 2025, The Standard, Brussels est le troisième établissement de la marque hôtelière en Europe.

Situé dans le quartier Nord de la ville, The Standard, Brussels apporte en Belgique la philosophie de la marque, axée sur le design, la culture et l’animation.

Avec 180 chambres (et 20 résidences), ce projet contemporain et flambant neuf propose de nombreux espaces pensés pour accueillir la vie diurne et nocturne emblématique de The Standard. Une serre au rez-de-chaussée invite les clients et les locaux à découvrir le lobby lounge, le restaurant et la terrasse. À l’étage, The Rooftop abrite son propre restaurant, bar et jardin — un lieu appelé à devenir une destination incontournable du quartier. Tout au long du bâtiment, des espaces publics et privés supplémentaires sont prévus pour accueillir divers événements.

The Standard, Brussels accueille une nouvelle génération de clients créatifs et dynamiques, en parfaite adéquation avec l’esprit de la marque. À Bruxelles, le mélange caractéristique de The Standard — une hospitalité à la fois ludique, sophistiquée et inattendue — trouvera ses racines et résonances dans la culture locale.

La promesse simple de The Standard est justement qu’elle n’a rien de standard.

Fondée en 1999, la marque a pour vocation de repousser les limites esthétiques et de bousculer les conventions, tout en portant une attention particulière à chaque détail, en s’impliquant dans les communautés locales, en offrant un environnement accueillant et inclusif pour nos équipes et, bien sûr, en garantissant à nos clients une expérience tout simplement inoubliable.
