Brussels Zaventem Airport (BRU) to Stein

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Java Coffee House with a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find after you have collected your luggage, so you can go straight there once you are through baggage reclaim.

The Drive from Brussels Airport to Stein

Stein lies 107 km (67 miles) from Brussels Zaventem Airport, and the drive usually takes about 1 h 7 m. The route crosses from Belgium into the Netherlands, so keep a valid passport or ID card within reach. Traffic around Brussels at the morning and evening peaks can slow the first part of the trip, and heavy rain or roadworks can add more. If you have a tight connection or an appointment at the other end, plan a buffer. This route is booked less often than the main airport runs, but it is available on request like any other.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the simplest choice. There are two versions: one for up to 3 passengers and one for up to 4. Check your luggage before you choose, as four people with large suitcases may be more comfortable with a larger vehicle.

Groups can choose from private minibuses with these capacities:

• 8 seats for small groups or families with extra luggage
• 16 seats for business teams or larger family parties
• 24 and 32 seats for tour groups and company events
• 40 and 48 seats for large delegations and organised trips

Stein as a Destination

Stein is a town in the Dutch province of Limburg, in the south of the Netherlands, close to the Maas river and the towns of Sittard and Geleen. It is a fairly small place and is best known as part of the South Limburg region. Many visitors come for business at the nearby Chemelot industrial and research site, others to visit family or to explore the surrounding countryside.

Where to Stay Near Stein

Stein itself has only a few places to stay, so many travellers choose the nearby city of Maastricht, which has a wider selection of long-established hotels. Well-known options there include Kruisherenhotel Maastricht, set in a former monastery, Hotel Derlon Maastricht, and Grand Hotel de l'Empereur. Tell the driver in your booking which address you are heading to, so the transfer ends at your door.
