Welcome in Vianden

Our youth hostel is located in Vianden, a small medieval town on the banks of the river Our, with its feudal castle overlooking the town. In this idyllic setting, the youth hostel invites you to embark on an exciting journey to discover hidden history.

Ideally located at the foot of the castle, the youth hostel in Vianden can accommodate groups, hikers and cyclists. And that’s not all: in 2026, the hostel will move to a bigger, more modern building!

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.
