Luxembourg

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

All youth hostels accept payment by credit card (Visa, Mastercard or V Pay) or in cash. Unfortunately, cheques are not accepted.

Guests can leave their luggage free of charge, before or after check-in, at all hostels. To take advantage of this service, simply ask at reception. This option is only available on the day of arrival and/or departure.

The hostels in Beaufort, Echternach, Larochette and Luxembourg City have their own free car parks for cars and coaches. In Esch-sur-Alzette, Lultzhausen and Vianden, paid car parks or covered car parks are located in the immediate vicinity of the youth hostels. Free car parks are available in Hollenfels and Remerschen.

Only guests staying overnight have access to the rooms. It is strictly forbidden to let outsiders in.

All youth hostels have free Wi-Fi. It works in common areas and in some rooms.

The rooms at the youth hostels in Beaufort, Echternach, Remerschen and Esch-sur-Alzette all have private showers and toilets. In the youth hostels in Luxembourg City, Larochette and Lultzhausen, only some rooms have private bathrooms. In the other rooms, showers and toilets are located in the corridors. In Vianden, none of the rooms have bathrooms; showers and toilets are located on each floor.

The rooms at the hostel are simply furnished. Upon arrival, our guests are given sheets so that they can make their own beds. Unlike hotels, our rooms do not have hairdryers, towels, soap, shampoo or televisions.

However, if you have forgotten your toiletries, you can purchase soap, shampoo, a toothbrush and toothpaste on site, as well as hire towels and a hairdryer for a small fee.

Luxembourg’s youth hostels are much more than just places to stay. In addition to accommodation and catering, most of them have ideal facilities for organising meetings, conferences, congresses and seminars. Many hostels also offer leisure activities for groups, families and school classes. Other facilities include a climbing hall in Echternach, a bowling alley in Beaufort, and indoor playgrounds in Beaufort and Lultzhausen.

However, animals are not allowed inside the hostels. Dogs are welcome on the terraces with their owners. Assistance dogs are permitted in the rooms, but only upon prior request.

The youth hostels in Beaufort, Echternach, Esch-sur-Alzette, Lultzhausen, Luxembourg City and Remerschen are partially or fully accessible to people with reduced mobility. Those wishing to book an adapted room should contact the hostel in advance.

Online bookings are possible for a maximum of seven nights. If you wish to extend your stay, you can do so directly on site. However, your stay cannot exceed 30 days per year in the Luxembourg youth hostel network.

There is no longer a curfew in youth hostels, as there used to be. As almost all hostels have a card reader system, it is possible to access rooms 24 hours a day after check-in. In Luxembourg City and Esch-sur-Alzette, the reception is even open 24 hours a day.

Um wie viel Uhr kann man ein- und auschecken?

As a general rule, youth hostels sell beds rather than rooms. If you book a place in a multi-bed room, other guests may be accommodated in the same room. Families, on the other hand, are allocated a private room. Other guests can book double or single occupancy, subject to availability and at an additional cost.

Young people aged 16 to 17 travelling alone are welcome. However, parental authorisation is required for any unaccompanied stay. Children and teenagers under the age of 16 cannot stay alone in a youth hostel, but only when accompanied by an adult. However, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that the measures in force for travel abroad may vary from country to country. For more information on the declaration of consent, see: guichet.public.lu.

No, there is no age limit. Children, young people and adults of all ages who enjoy the atmosphere of youth hostels are welcome.

Membership cards displaying the Hostelling International logo are valid at all affiliated youth hostels worldwide: www.hihostels.com.

A membership card can be purchased from the national youth hostel federation. Luxembourg residents can obtain this card via our online registration form or at the youth hostel of their choice.

If your address of residence is abroad, the membership card must be ordered from the national federation or online: www.hihostels.com.

Youth hostels are a non-profit association (ASBL) that is also a member of the international youth hostel federation ‘Hostelling International’, which brings together more than 2,600 hostels in over 57 countries. It is therefore necessary to have a valid ‘Hostelling International’ card from your national youth hostel federation. People who do not have a membership card and who do not live in Luxembourg can purchase a day pass on site for €4 per person per night, which allows them to become a member for one night.

Annual membership entitles you to a €4 discount per adult per night in Luxembourg youth hostels, as well as numerous discounts on admission fees in Luxembourg and abroad, and a discount of at least 10% on the price of a night’s stay in more than 2,600 youth hostels worldwide. What’s more, as a member, you contribute to the qualitative development of youth hostels in order to meet visitors’ expectations.
