Departure Bus Station: Buses from Paris to Brussels leave from Bercy, La Defense, and the Gare Routiere Gallieni. Gallieni is the most convenient departure point for those in eastern Paris, and is best reached via Gallieni Metro station. La Defense is in Paris' western suburbs, and is connected to the center via trams, Metro and RER overground rail services (expect RER or Metro transfers to take 10-15 minutes). Bercy is the most central of the various departure points, and can be found at the intersection of Metro lines 6 and 14. So getting there won't be too challenging.

Arrival Bus Station: Most buses from Paris will arrive at either Brussels Midi or Brussels Nord (both are major stations on the city's rail and Metro network). Midi is connected to Brussels Midi Station, which offers easy connections to Brussels Airport, and is situated in one of the city's most popular accommodation districts. Nord is located in northern Brussels, and is less convenient for reaching major attractions or hotels. However, it is right next door to the Brussels Congress conference center, so may suit business travelers. A few buses also stop at Louvain Diestspoort 5275, in the attractive university city of Leuven - a few miles east of Brussels.
