About Luxembourg
Luxembourg is one of the most surprising places to visit in Europe. Perhaps it’s because of its convenient location at a natural crossroads of European countries, and therefore easy to include in many trips. Partly, too, because of the warm welcome and excellent hospitality always enjoyed there. But mostly it’s because for such a small country, it manages to cram so much in that is worth seeing.
The capital, Luxembourg City, is one of the most naturally spectacular in Europe. It’s built around deep canyons, created by two rivers, and linked by towering viaducts. Basing yourself in the city centre, it’s easy to explore on foot. The Hotel Francais, in the pedestrian area, is one we would recommend. Its not too big, has an excellent restaurant, and on a warm evening its great to sit in the pavement bar and just soak up the ambience of Luxembourg at night.
