Welcome to Luxembourg-city

The capital of the Grand Duchy is full of contrasts: castle ruins and the Court of Justice of the European Communities, banks and art museums, internationality and traditional markets. The youth hostel is located on the edge of the UNESCO zone, below the Bock promontory.

If you’re planning a visit to Luxembourg’s capital city, affectionately known as ‘d’Stad’ by locals, with its ramparts, numerous museums, shops, squares and welcoming cafés, then our City hostel is the perfect place to stay.

Our tips
for our guests

  • Is it possible to eat at the Melting Pot youth hostel restaurant without staying there overnight?

    Our restaurants are also open to visitors who are not staying at the hostel. A supplement is charged to non-members. Each of our hostels offers a different menu every day. You can view the menus on our website: www.meltingpot.lu.

  • Is it possible to book half or full board?

    Each hostel has its own restaurant called the ‘Melting Pot’, which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. Guests wishing to book lunch and/or dinner can do so directly at reception.

  • Are we allowed to bring our own food and cook it ourselves?

    Unfortunately, this is no longer possible. There are no kitchens for guests in our youth hostels anymore. You are also not permitted to prepare meals in your room. However, we would be delighted to welcome you to our ‘Melting Pot’ restaurants, which offer delicious meals to suit all budgets.

  • Do you need to bring your own sleeping bag?

    For hygiene reasons, guests are not permitted to bring their own sleeping bags and pillows to youth hostels. However, we provide bed linen free of charge for our guests.

  • Is breakfast included in the price? What exactly does it include?

    Breakfast is included in the price of an overnight stay. It is not possible to book an overnight stay without breakfast. The breakfast offering is simple and consists of bread/rolls, cold meats, cheese, spreads, cereal/cornflakes, yoghurt, milk, coffee and tea. Guests who wish to purchase additional drinks can do so in the cafeteria.
