​Logistics

Airport

The closest airport is Brussels International Airport Zaventem. By public transport, the hotel (red circle) is about 30 min away.

Train from airport
The easiest (as not dependent on traffic) way to get into Brussels is by train: when leaving the arrival area gate, go right towards the staircase, the train station is on the bottom floor. Take the train to Brussels Nord (blue circle), then, it's 9 min walk (850m).

Train tickets can be purchased on the ticket machines at the entrance to the station. If you want to skip the queues, use the SNCB/ NMBS app that you can download on to your smartphone. Please note it takes a moment to purchase the ticket, so best to do it at home.

Bus airport- hotel
Take bus 620 from Perron A at Zaventem, 26 stops, to Botanique/ Kruidtuin and walk 2 min.

Thalys- Bruxelles Midi/ Brussels South
Should you arrive by Thalys, take the metro line No 6 (blue line) direction Elisabeth till Botanique/ Kruidtuin.
