Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Pulheim

The drive from Brussels Airport to Pulheim

Pulheim is 209 km (130 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive usually takes about 2 h 16 m. The route leaves Belgium and crosses into Germany, so a transfer with one vehicle from door to door saves you from juggling several train connections with luggage. This is a less frequently booked route, but it is available on request like any other. Allow extra time if you travel during weekday rush hours, as traffic around Cologne can slow the final stretch. Roadworks near the border can also add some minutes.

Which vehicle fits your group

For one to four passengers, a Private Taxi is the simplest choice. Larger parties can choose a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40 or 48 seats, each available for any group size up to its capacity. A minibus also makes sense for smaller groups with a lot of luggage, such as trade fair visitors or families on a longer stay. For company delegations, school trips or wedding parties heading to Pulheim, the 32, 40 and 48 seat options keep everyone together in one vehicle.

Pulheim as a destination

Pulheim is a town in the Rhein-Erft district of North Rhine-Westphalia, just northwest of Cologne. It is largely residential and suburban, which makes it a calm base for visitors who have business in the Cologne area. The former Brauweiler Abbey, which lies within the town, is one of its best-known historic sites. Cologne city centre is close, so many travellers combine a stay here with trips into the city.

Places to stay near Pulheim

Pulheim itself has mainly smaller, local guesthouses, so many visitors choose a hotel in neighbouring Cologne, which borders the town. Two well-established addresses there are:

• Excelsior Hotel Ernst, a historic grand hotel beside Cologne Cathedral
• Hilton Cologne, a large business hotel in the city centre
