The Drive from BRU to La Vieille Lanterne
The route covers 16 km (10 miles) and usually takes about 26 minutes. That is the typical figure in normal traffic. Allow extra time if you travel during the busy morning or late-afternoon periods, since the approach to the city centre can slow down considerably. The last stretch runs through the historic centre, where streets are narrow and some are pedestrian-only, so your driver may drop you at the nearest accessible point and you may have to walk the final few steps.
Meeting Point
Your driver waits at Java Coffee House holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there without searching the terminal.
Choosing the Right Vehicle
For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simple choice, with options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Larger parties can book a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Pick the size according to both the number of people and the amount of luggage. A group with large suitcases will be more comfortable in the next size up.
About La Vieille Lanterne
La Vieille Lanterne is a name linked to the historic heart of Brussels, close to the famous Manneken Pis statue. The surrounding area is full of cobbled lanes, cafés, chocolate shops and small restaurants, and the Grand Place is only a short walk away. It is a lively, touristy part of town, so expect crowds on the pavements, especially at weekends and in high season.
Places to Stay Nearby
La Vieille Lanterne is not a district with hotels of its own, so here are well-known options in the surrounding historic centre of Brussels. Hotel Amigo sits just off the Grand Place, a short walk from Manneken Pis. Hotel Métropole, on Place de Brouckère, is one of the city's long-established grand hotels, dating back to the late 19th century. Both are easy to reach by car from the airport, and a driver can drop you at or near the entrance.
