Liège Airport: where to stay, areas and recommended hotels
Liège-Bierset airport lives mostly off night cargo flights and a few low-cost passenger routes, and it sits about 12 km southwest of the city center. Those with a dawn flight or who just need to stop for one night find it more convenient to stay near the terminal; those who want to see Liège, with its Calatrava-designed station and historic center on the Meuse, do better to choose a hotel in the city, keeping in mind that on weekends there's no bus to the airport.
