There currently are a variety of options to travel by night train from Berlin (Germany) to Brussels (Belgium), taking between approximately 9 and 15 hours: Namely the ES 452 and the NJ 424. These lines are operated by European Sleeper and ÖBB.
European Sleeper is a young Dutch startup connecting several European cities in Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and the Czech Republic with their "Good Night Train". The sleeper cars offer comfortable and lockable compartments for one, two or three persons, each equipped with a washbasin. The service includes bedding, towels, toiletries and breakfast. A wake-up service is available. The couchette cars come in two variants: standard (6 people) and comfort (5 people, air-conditioned). Both include bedding, blankets and pillows. Comfort compartments can be booked as private or women-only compartments. The compartments can be locked from the inside. As the most economical option, seating cars with 6-person compartments are available. Seat reservations are included in the price. Drinks and snacks can be purchased from the train crew.
The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) operate the Nightjet and Euronight trains (the latter together with other national railway agencies). The ÖBB usually offer three types of carriages in their night trains: seats, couchettes, and sleepers. While seats are only for the bravest, couchettes and sleepers offer a more comfortable journey. Couchettes accommodate up to six people, while sleepers are private compartments for one to three people. They may include a private bathroom or shower, or sometimes just a sink.
