What do I need to bear in mind if I want to visit the city by coach ?

Leuven has a circulation plan and not all streets in the city are accessible to coaches. For more information, please visit this site: https://www.visitleuven.be/sites/visitleuven.be/files/documents/2020-01/By%20coach%20to%20Leuven.pdf

The coach must provide a seat with microphone for the guide. The coach will not leave the site until the guide has given instructions.

Are all the buildings in Leuven always accessible?

It is always possible that a building will be closed to visitors (e.g. due to an event or restoration work) In this case the guide will always suggest an alternative.
