Brussels and Bruges, Belgium 

Brussels is a captivating city, with the Brussels Marriott Hotel steeped in a rich, diverse culture that has been evolving for more than 1,000 years. With its French & Flemish influences, famed institutions, museums and architectural marvels, it offers vast international appeal. Within walking distance of its most revered landmarks, including the Grand Place & the Mont des Arts, you'll find the Brussels Marriott Hotel. Set where an island once stood in a flowing river, this grand city center hotel now offers luxurious accommodations in a historic building. Here, vibrantly appointed guest rooms feature the plush new Marriott bed with down comforters, designer duvets and fluffier pillows to cradle you each night. From the large work desk, high-speed Internet keeps you connected. For dining, the new 'Midtown Grill' specializes in great steaks, chops & seafood.

Enjoy a site-seeing tour of Brussels on Friday morning and the afternoon free to explore on your own. On Saturday, take a full day guided trip to Bruges.  Known as the Venice of the North, Bruges is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. It was a justified motive that prompted UNESCO in 2000 to include the entire historical city centre on the World Heritage list. Walking along the maze of winding cobbled alleys and romantic canals, it is easy to imagine yourself to be in medieval times.
