Charleroi Airport Brussels South (CRL) to Woluwe-Saint-Lambert

The Drive from Charleroi to Woluwe-Saint-Lambert

The route covers 65 km (40 miles) and typically takes about 56 minutes. Woluwe-Saint-Lambert lies on the eastern side of Brussels, so the final stretch runs through city traffic. On weekday mornings and late afternoons it is sensible to allow extra time, especially if you have a meeting, an appointment or a train to catch.

Meeting Point at Charleroi Airport

Your driver waits at Starbucks holding a personalised name sign. The spot is easy to find once you have collected your luggage.

Choosing the Right Vehicle

For solo travellers, couples and small families, a private taxi is available for 1-3 or 1-4 passengers. Groups can choose a private minibus with 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56 or 64 seats. When picking a size, count your luggage as well as your passengers, because suitcases, sports equipment and strollers take up space.

Woluwe-Saint-Lambert as a Destination

Woluwe-Saint-Lambert is a largely residential municipality of the Brussels-Capital Region, known for its green spaces such as Woluwe Park and for the Saint-Luc University Hospital. It also has a university medical campus and a well-known shopping centre. Several metro stations on the line running east from the city centre serve the area, which makes onward travel simple once you arrive.

Where to Stay Nearby

I cannot name long-established hotels in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert itself with confidence. Nearby central Brussels has several well-known ones: Hotel Metropole, a landmark on Place de Brouckère dating from the 19th century, Hotel Amigo, close to the Grand-Place, and Le Plaza Brussels, a classic hotel near the Botanique. All are a short ride from Woluwe-Saint-Lambert. If your accommodation is in Woluwe-Saint-Lambert, simply give the driver the exact address when booking.
