Luxembourg City · Where to stay

Staying in Clausen, Luxembourg City

Check whether your accommodation faces Rives de Clausen or a neighboring residential street. The former brewery courtyards draw evening visitors, and the experience can differ sharply over a short distance. During the day, use the river as your reference point: Grund lies along the valley, while routes toward the Bock and upper town gain height quite quickly.
