For the third time, the European Nuclear Assembly (ENA) will be held at the Marriott Hotel. The location has indeed established itself as the perfect venue for a top-level conference like ENA. It is one of the most prestigious and luxurious hotels in Brussels, located in the heart of the city, close to the "Bourse” (the Brussels Stock Exchange). From there, it is only a 2 minutes walk to the beautiful "Grand'Place", the famous central square of Brussels with its 17th century houses, and a stone’s throw from Brussels' most famous tourist attraction, the “Manneken Pis”. The European district with its EU institutions’ headquarters is just a 5-10 minutes taxi ride away.

The Marriott's conference facilities are second to none and perfect for such an important event. This conference venue offers a large ballroom, a business centre and four meeting rooms. A separate entrance to the first floor ensures easy access to the conference area.

The hotel also provides a range of high-quality services. The open circular lobby lounge, the “Bar de la Senne” and the executive lounge are ideal for an informal get-together. Those who need to keep in touch with their offices can make use of the fully-equipped business centre.
