Staying in Limpertsberg, Luxembourg City

An address near the Glacis gives a different daily walk from one farther uphill around Avenue Pasteur. Check that distinction before booking. The district spreads away from the tram corridor, so a short ride into town can still begin with a substantial walk. Around the Glacis, temporary events can also change how you cross the open space and reach nearby stops.
