Gibraltar of the North

While Luxembourg City boasts the shiny headquarters of several European institutions and EU offices, it is also home to a beautiful old town that's designated as a World Heritage Site. Situated between (and well connected to) Frankfurt, Paris, and Amsterdam, this city thrives because of its great central location, also drawing tourism with its easily walkable compact size. Visitors enjoy walking along the promenade day or night and taking in views of the Alzette and Petrusse river gorges. Explore a wealth of attractions, from underground passageways and Roman remnants to museums, cathedrals, memorials, and the Grand Ducal Palace. Luxembourg City is in Luxembourg District. Use our online itinerary creator: Luxembourg City and all its delights await.

Where to stay in Luxembourg City

©
With 24 districts making up Luxembourg City, you might have a hard time choosing what neighborhood you like best. For starters, look at accommodations in Ville Haute, the medieval center, where you’ll be at the heart of the city and within walking distance to main attractions as well as public transportation. If stunning views are what you’re after, look into Ville Basse, a central neighborhood in the city’s gorge. Gare is also well-located, home to the city’s main train station as well as many lively restaurants and cafes filled with locals. Whether you stay in one of the city’s few hostels or a hotel, be prepared for high prices.
