Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Moresnet

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Moresnet

Moresnet lies 127 km (79 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the typical driving time is 1 h 23 m. The route runs east across Belgium towards the German and Dutch borders, so it is a proper long-distance ride rather than a quick hop. Morning and late-afternoon traffic around Brussels can add time at the start of the trip, so allow some extra margin if you have a connection or an appointment at the other end. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request just like any other.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For couples, solo travellers and small families, a private taxi is the simplest option: one version seats 1-3 passengers, the other 1-4. If you travel with several suitcases, the 4-seat version is not a bad idea even for three people, as it leaves more room for luggage. Larger groups can choose a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, which suits family gatherings, wedding parties, sports teams and company outings. Everyone then travels together in one vehicle, which also simplifies arrival at a small village.

Moresnet and Where to Stay Nearby

Moresnet is a small village in the municipality of Plombières, in the province of Liège, close to the borders with Germany and the Netherlands. It is a quiet, green corner of eastern Belgium, and visitors usually come for the countryside or to visit family, or use it as a base for the wider border region.

Moresnet itself has little in the way of large hotels, so many travellers stay in nearby Aachen in Germany. Well-known options there include:

• Pullman Aachen Quellenhof, a long-established hotel near the city centre
• Mercure Hotel Aachen Europaplatz, a convenient mid-city base
• Hotel Aquis Grana Cityhotel, located in the old town

Please confirm your exact drop-off address with your booking so the driver can take you straight to your door.
