Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Holsbeek

Meeting Point

Your driver waits at Starbucks at Brussels South Charleroi Airport, holding a personalised sign with your name. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage.

The Drive to Holsbeek

The route covers 93 km (58 miles) and typically takes 1 h 8 m. Holsbeek lies in Flemish Brabant, just north of Leuven, so the final stretch leaves the main roads and runs through quiet residential streets. Morning and late-afternoon rush hours around Brussels and Leuven can slow the journey, so add some extra time if you have a meeting, a check-in deadline or a train to catch.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is the natural choice, with options for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Groups with more luggage or more people can choose an 8-seat minibus. Larger parties such as school trips, sports teams, wedding guests or company outings can be matched with minibuses from 16 up to 64 seats. Tell us your passenger count and how many bags you are bringing, and we will help you pick the right size.

About Holsbeek

Holsbeek is a small municipality of villages and countryside in the Flemish Brabant province, close to Leuven. It is a green, mostly residential area, which makes it a calm base for visits to the university city and the surrounding Hageland region. Have the exact street address ready for your driver, as many roads here are narrow and house numbers can be hard to spot.

Where to Stay Near Holsbeek

Holsbeek itself has limited accommodation, so many visitors stay in nearby Leuven, only a short drive away. Well-known options there include:

• Martin's Klooster Hotel, a hotel set in a former convent building
• Leuven Marriott Hotel, close to the city centre
• Park Inn by Radisson Leuven, near the railway station

Your driver can drop you at any of these or at a private address in Holsbeek.
