Grand Hotel Cravat, WorldHotels Distinctive

In the centre of Luxembourg City, the Grand Hotel Cravat, WorldHotels Distinctive, Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, is a grand old family-run hotel that has welcomed guests for more than a hundred years, with individually styled rooms, a 1960s look of marble and patterned tiling beside a smart renovated floor, fine dining, and secure Wi-Fi throughout. From the door it is a short walk to the old town, the cliff tunnels and the cathedral, with the railway station close by and the airport about eight kilometers away by quick train or road. Smart shops line the boulevard outside, and green walking paths drop into the valleys just below the streets. Luxembourg City rises on rocky spurs above deep gorges, its old quarters and walls listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Tunnels called the Bock casemates honeycomb the cliffs where the fortress began, a clifftop walkway has been called Europe's most beautiful balcony, and the Grund district sits by the river far below the ramparts, while pavement cafés fill the lively squares above, where market stalls and street music gather on warm evenings. As the capital of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, it is known for its historic old town, dramatic fortifications, and its role as a major center for European institutions, international finance, and a multicultural population speaking Luxembourgish, French, German, and many other languages.
