Trains from London to Brussels

London to Brussels takes you under the Channel and across the north of France into Belgium, arriving at a station south of the Brussels centre. It links the British capital with the seat of the European institutions, so it carries officials and lobbyists during the week and visitors heading for the Grand Place, the comic-strip murals and the beer cafés at the weekend.

About the London to Brussels train

Brussels-Midi is where you get off, and it is not the city centre: the Grand Place and the old town are to the north-east, reached by metro, tram or a longish walk. Brussels rewards a base near the centre or in the European quarter around Schuman, depending on whether the trip is for pleasure or for meetings, and it makes a sensible base for day trips to Bruges, Ghent and Antwerp. Departure is from St Pancras International in London. Because the journey leaves the United Kingdom, allow time at the station for the checks before boarding, and have your passport ready. Decide the date and the number of travellers; Brussels to London is covered on its own page on AI Concierge with its own fare. The Belgium eSIM plans linked on this page are for data on the far side of the tunnel, and Where to stay in Brussels is a sample of the hotels in the catalogue.
