Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Bomel

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Bomel

Bomel lies 65 km (41 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the journey typically takes around 46 minutes. The route heads south-east towards Wallonia, and the last stretch leads into the Namur area. Weekday rush hours around Brussels can slow the start of the trip, so it is sensible to allow some extra time if you have a fixed appointment or a train to catch. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other transfer.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Solo travellers, couples and small families are well served by a private taxi, available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Larger parties with suitcases are better off in a private minibus. The 8-seat minibus suits a family or a small group, while the 16-seat option works for a team or extended family. For bigger groups, minibuses with 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats are available, which makes it possible to keep a wedding party, a conference delegation or a tour group together in one vehicle.

Bomel and Where to Stay Nearby

Bomel is a district within the city of Namur in Wallonia, so most visitors use it as a base for the wider Namur area rather than as a stand-alone destination. I cannot name established hotels within Bomel itself with confidence, so here are two well-known places to stay in the nearby city of Namur:

• Hôtel Les Tanneurs in central Namur
• Château de Namur, a hotel set near the Citadel

Both are a short drive from Bomel, so they are easy to reach if you want to stay in the city centre.
