In Brussels the main stations are, from North to South :

Brussels Nord
Brussels Central
Brussels Midi (also known as Brussels Zuid)

All domestic trains stop at all three stations on their journey through Brussels.

The exception to this are the international trains (Eurostar to London, Thalys to Paris and Amsterdam, and most trains to Germany) which use Midi ONLY.

If you travel to Brussels on one of the hourly local trains from Amsterdam, it will call at Central where you alight for le Meridien.

If you are travelling in from Amsterdam on the Thalys, you will need to take a local train back 1 stop to Central from Midi.

Leaving Le Meridien, join any local train at Central and travel 1 stop to Midi for your Thalys train to Paris.
