ReviewsReviews for the rail journey from Brussels to Paris

The customer opinion was acquired via Cimenio. Cimenio incentivises its users for giving an honest opinion and proving the booking with a photo of the travel ticket.

Pros

Punctuality

speed

Cons

None

The train was very punctual and within a short time (approx. 1:30h) you cover a distance that would take about 4 hours by car. The price of €99 is absolutely fine. The cleanliness of the train is also impressive. There are enough sockets on the train to charge your mobile phone.

Pros

Direct connection

Design

speed

Cons

limited wifi

Insufficient luggage areas

I travelled on the Thalys 9448 first from Cologne to Brussels and then the last stretch from Brussels to Paris. On this route, the train accelerates to over 300 km/h, so the journey takes less than an hour and a half! The train was on time and I found the red-coloured design of the train particularly appealing. The seat was comfortable and offered me good opportunities to work thanks to the power socket and wifi (which is quite limited in second class). The toilets, which were formally separated by gender, were cramped but clean. The luggage racks by the doors were also a bit cramped, although I was lucky as there was still enough space in Cologne. I had only bought my non-cancellable ticket a month beforehand, so the journey wasn't a bargain, but it wasn't overly expensive either.

Pros

Short journey time

Cons

Expensive

Overcrowded

Unfortunately, the train was very crowded with passengers on the journey from Brussels to Paris. The price wasn't exactly the cheapest either, in my opinion. Nevertheless, I was able to book the ticket very easily online without any problems. I really liked the fact that I arrived at my destination very quickly and didn't have to change trains. I liked the well-maintained toilets and the very good wifi during the journey.

Pros

Beautiful view

Good hygiene

Cons

Expensive in terms of price

I travelled to Paris on the Eurostar 9302. The journey from Brussels offered a very nice view and the hygiene on the train was also very good. Everything made a freshly cleaned impression. Unfortunately, there was hardly any service, but at least the on-board bistro was open, where I got something to eat. The train's wifi also worked without any problems and all in all I was satisfied with the journey

Pros

Fast drive

Cons

Expensive in terms of price

I travelled to Paris on the Eurostar 9302. As I was travelling from Brussels, I had a new experience on my journey. I had never seen a view like this before and luckily the weather was fine. The service was very nice and the hygiene was also in good condition. Unfortunately, the on-board bistro was not open, but I didn't need it for the short journey. The price was a little too expensive for the relatively short journey.
