Tips / Destination

Luxembourg City might not be the largest capital in Europe, but it still offers plenty of options for places to stay. To get the most out of your visit consider checking out these hot spots that’ll put you near all the action.

 

Hotel Parc Beaux Arts

The Hotel Parc Beaux Arts is one of the priciest options in the city, but it’s also at the heart of the town and just a hop away from the Palais Grand-Ducal. The rooms here have beamed ceilings and fireplaces, definitely making it worth the hefty price tag.

 

Hotel Bristol

On the other end of the financial spectrum, Hotel Bristol offers little bang for your buck. The amenities are modest, though cozy, but it’ll certainly leave you with extra money to spend in such a wonderful city. As a bonus, it’s only a few hundred meters away from the Luxembourg Railway Station, so you’ll have no problem getting around.

 

Hotel Simoncini

Hotel Simoncini is somewhat in the mid-range price-wise, but it puts you right at the city center while also offering up some unique atmosphere. It’s what locals refer to as an “art hotel,” which basically means the lobby, rooms and hallways are full of colorful modern art pieces to explore.

 

Auberge de Jeunesse

If you’re totally broke or just backpacking and wanting to save money, check out the Auberge de Jeunesse. This low-key hostel is sex segregated and contemporary, providing everything you need including dorms, lockers with keys and laundry facilities. It’s positioned right near a bus stop, so you won’t have much trouble finding your way.
