Train Travel & Airport Transfers

Because Maison Trianon sits right on the Franco-Belgian border, your departure station depends entirely on whether you are traveling through France or Belgium. Heading to the correct station will save you hours of unnecessary backtracking.

• Lille-Lesquin Airport (LIL)

  • Duration: ~35 to 45 minutes.

  • Line to take: Take the TER Regional Train directly from Valenciennes toward Lille-Flandres. Most of these frequent services stop directly at Lesquin Station, where a quick 5-minute taxi or shuttle connection brings you straight to the terminal gates.
