From the airports

From the Brussels National Airport (Zaventem), you can use the public transportation to get to the city or ULB quite easily. The fastest way is to take a train to Brussels Central station from the airport (and then follow the instructions below). Otherwise, at the airport, take bus line 12 (preferably) or 21. They follow the same route, although the 21 stops everywhere whereas the 12 is “express”; however the 12 does not run after 8PM or on week-ends. Exit the bus at the Schuman station to take the subway. If you want to get to the ULB, take line 5 direction Hermann-Debroux, and stop at Delta. Brussels is also served by the smaller Brussels South Charleroi airport. There are buses every 30 minutes to take you from the airport to Brussels South station.

From the train stations

From Gare de Midi/Zuidstation/Brussels South station (arrival by THALYS/EUROSTAR): take metro line 2 or 6 direction Simonis-Elisabeth change at station Arts-Loi to metro line 5 direction Hermann-Debroux and exit metro at station Delta.

From Gare Centrale/Central station you can directly take line 5.

By Bus

Starting from Brussels Central station, there is the bus line 71 which goes through Ixelles (where many hotels are). Take it (direction Delta) and get off at stop Fraiteur.
