Travel Information:
Car: Faculty Club (and the adjacent hotel) are situated along the ring road of Leuven, just off the E40/E314 - only a 15-minute drive from the airport by train or car - 20 minutes from Brussels.
There is ample parking space at the hotel (for guests only). We've made arrangements with the hotel, so parking is included in the room rate.
The venue itself has 250 parking spots. You do need a code to enter the parking lot however. For the week of the event, this parking code is 1177.
In the confirmation you will receive a few weeks before the event, this code will be mentioned again.
Air: It is relatively easy to get to from the Airport of Zaventem (Brussels).
Train Airport - Leuven - Luik: exit the train in Leuven. Takes 15 minutes. there is a train every 30 minutes.
From the station to the venue is about 2 km. You can take a bus (nrs. 2 or 600), or a taxi (about 7 EUR).
You can also take a taxi from the airport. This is more expensive of course. Could be up to 70 EUR.
You can book a taxi up front. This will be about 36 EUR: www.taxi2brussels.be
Some people prefer to fly into Amsterdam, as they sometimes offer cheaper flights. From Schiphol, you can take a fast train to Antwerp: www.thalys.com/fr/en/timetables. It stops at Antwerp Central station. From there you can take a train to Leuven.
Railway: Train to Leuven.
From the station to the venue is about 2 km. You can take a bus (nrs. 2 or 600), or a taxi.
