Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Numa Brussels Royal Galleries

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage, so you can meet without searching the terminal.

The Drive into Central Brussels

The route covers 14 km (9 miles) and typically takes 23 minutes. Most of it runs on the motorway into the city. Allow extra time at morning and late-afternoon rush hours, when the approach roads to the centre can slow down. Numa Brussels Royal Galleries sits in the historic centre, near the Royal Galleries, where streets are narrow and partly pedestrianised. Your driver will stop as close to the entrance as local traffic rules allow.

Which Vehicle Suits Your Group

A private taxi works well for solo travellers, couples and small families, with options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Larger groups can book a private minibus. The 8-seat model suits a group with luggage. The 16-, 24- and 32-seat minibuses suit teams and tour parties. For very large groups, minibuses with 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats are available. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other.

Where to Stay in Central Brussels

Besides Numa itself, the centre has several long-established hotels within easy reach of the Royal Galleries:

• Hotel Amigo, close to the Grand Place
• Hotel Métropole, a historic hotel on Place de Brouckère
• Le Plaza Brussels, near the Boulevard Adolphe Max

Public Transport Option

Train to Brussels-Central, then a short walk to Numa Brussels Royal Galleries, no change required, approx. 35–45 minutes total. Trains run from the station under the airport terminal. Brussels-Central is a short walk from the Royal Galleries area, which is helpful if you travel with little luggage.
