Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Stanhope Hotel Brussels by Thon Hotels

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 meet up without searching the terminal.

The Drive from Brussels Zaventem to the Hotel

The hotel lies 14 km (9 miles) from the airport, and the trip usually takes about 20 minutes. The route runs from Zaventem into the centre of Brussels, so the last part of the journey goes through city streets. During the morning and late-afternoon rush hours the approach roads into Brussels can slow down noticeably. If you have a meeting or a connection to catch, allow some extra time at those hours. Outside peak times the drive is generally smooth.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

Solo travellers, couples and small families fit comfortably in a private taxi, which is available for either up to 3 or up to 4 passengers. Pick the 4-passenger option if you travel with a bit more luggage. Groups of 5 to 8 can use the 8-seat minibus. For larger parties such as conference delegations, school trips or tour groups, minibuses are available with 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. Every vehicle is private, so your group travels together directly to the hotel without other stops.
