Apart from the upper sphere, which is accessible by lift, the rest of the Atomium is not easy to access for people with restricted mobility, and unfortunately it is not suitable for wheelchairs
There are 80 steps to walk up and 167 steps to walk down, and it is impossible to avoid this
You are advised to visit when the attraction opens and to avoid peak time (between 10:00 AM and 3:00 PM) when there is a large influx of visitors
After 3:30 PM the flow of visitors tends to reduce
During the holiday periods, the attraction can be very crowded which can cause longer waiting times
You are invited to check the activity provider's Facebook and Google pages which shows the number of visitors in real time
Due to COVID, your admission time may be somewhat delayed due to slower lines for the elevator

It’s old and not worth paying for the entry
beaucoup d'attente pour peu de temps
Es Muy buena pero hacia un calor infernal dentro y con toda la gente se intensifica. Lo Ideal es visitarlo en otoño o invierno.
Style original et sympas à faire je conseille cette activité
Visita obligatoria cuando vienes a Bruselas. En la parte superior hay un restaurante. Genial para tomar algo( un poco caro pero es normal que tenga estos precios, estás en un sitio privilegiado)
Esta muy bien porque te evitas las largas colas de entrada.
Non c’è niente da vedere
