Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to 9Hotel Chelton, Brussels

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House holding a personalised name sign. The location is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can walk straight there from baggage reclaim and look for your name.

The Drive from BRU to 9Hotel Chelton

The route covers 12 km (8 miles) and normally takes around 15 minutes. That makes it a short hop, and one of the quicker ways to go from landing to hotel check-in in the city. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other transfer.

Traffic is the main variable. The approach roads into Brussels and the ring road can slow down on weekday mornings and in the late afternoon, so it is sensible to allow a little extra time if you have a tight schedule, such as a meeting shortly after arrival. Outside peak hours the trip is usually smooth and quick.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice: one option seats 1-3 passengers and another seats 1-4. If you travel with several suitcases, it helps to pick the larger of the two.

Groups of up to 8 can use the 8-seat private minibus. For bigger parties such as school trips, conference delegations or wedding guests, minibuses are available with 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Choose the size that matches your group, and everyone arrives together at the hotel in one vehicle.
