We traveled to Antwerp on a day trip from Brussels and this beautiful station was our first…read moredestination upon arrival. First thing we noticed were the multiple levels of tracks built under the steel and glass canopy of the station. As others have pointed out what an amazing engineering design and operational efficiency! The beautiful interior of the station that greeted everyone upon arrival was quite the photo spot. Personally I preferred the departure side which was just as ornate but with significantly less people. Outside, a huge Ferris wheel was installed and blocked photos of the station exterior. Inside expect to find Starbucks and other fast or convenience food options, WCs and ticket office. It was easy just to walk from the station to the historic part of Antwerp through the diamond district or take public transportation. Well worth a visit even if not taking a train anywhere.

If you walk down the stairs, they are behind the stairs. There is no small size. The middle size is only good for a backpacks. For carry on size luggage, you need at least a L size, which is 9 euro for L size. There are bigger sizes, which will cost more. The instructions are clearly stated in the locker room. No staff are there to help you. Credit card is accepted.

I have to be honest - if I was writing this review about the Belgian rails system as a whole I…read morewould likely give FIVE STARS - the prices are VERY affordable (£8 each way to Antwerp which is a 50 Minute ride - so I chose first class for £11 each way), I can buy the tickets using my U.K. Trainline App (which is why I list the prices in £'s), the trains all seem perfectly on time and are clean. The station itself could do with a little spring cleaning and an upgrade on the food offerings. I was alarmed to see FOUR soldiers in full gear all with semi-automatic rifles at the ready this morning at 11am (Sunday) - see pic - Yikes! Review 5 2019

Large train station in Brussels. I arrived here from Paris. There were a lot of moving parts, and…read morepeople, but I'm a New Yorker. Aside from that, I had someone with me, who could speak French. The machines were there, so. Was able to purchase a ticket but nobody took it onboard the train, so it turned out to be for naught. Nonetheless, this was a large station with multiple shops and was extremely neat, I was pleasantly surprised. This station seemed to have local and trains to take you to other European countries.

Slight chaos at this airport with some of the escalators out of service. The taxi service in and…read moreout was quick and not busy, Uber is a horror story in itself. I'm sort of used to airports and expect chaos, although it does not need to feel that way. We were here in Brussels just for the day so we did not have luggage which made it much easier. Every employee was helpful in navigating me through the new routes to my train. Plenty of cafes to choose a good coffee. Eurostar was a delayed disater but not the fault of the train station.

The station personnel were friendly and the shops had a good selection of items to choose from. If you have time stop and take in the station as it's very nice.

The difference is that the other station isn't actually a through station where as this one is. Fortunately you can actually walk between them, and it doesn't take all that long to get there either. It's pretty new, mainly having been built for the high-speed rail, the one that goes to England and also the one between Amsterdam and Paris. It's pretty flash and all that, but I still like the older one.

Lille-Flandres Train Station is the major train station in downtown Lille and is where I took a…read moretrain to Paris on Tuesday afternoon . This train station features a bunch of food options from small baked goods and sandwich shops to a McDonalds that's easily accessible from the main lobby. This train station also has a bunch of shops and vending machines around in case you want some candy, drinks, magazines, or phone chargers before you hop on the train. For the most part, this train station does what it needs to do, it looks fairly nice, was kept pretty clean, and I have no real issues with it. The only thing I will say is that they definitely don't have enough seating around, lots of people holding lots of stuff wanting to sit down. Overall, Lille-Flandres Train Station is a pretty standard train station and serves the city of Lille just fine and most importantly, you can't beat the location right next to the mall.
