Hotel Le Place d’Armes is the most charming place to stay in Luxembourg City. It sits on the Place d’Armes, the lively square at the heart of the upper town, yet its terraces and courtyards make it feel like an island of calm. The hotel has 28 rooms, 12 of them suites, each with designer toiletries, a minibar and a desk, and service runs around the clock with 24-hour room service. As a member of Relais and Châteaux it puts dining at the centre: La Cristallerie, the hotel’s refined French restaurant, is one of three places to eat and drink on site, and there is a bar and lounge for an aperitif. Parking is available, which is rare in the old town.
Living in it: step out onto the square and you are minutes from the Grand Ducal Palace, the cathedral and the Corniche. The courtyard rooms are the quietest, and the hotel suits a romantic weekend or a special occasion.
Trade-offs: rates are at the top of the Luxembourg market and breakfast is charged separately. The square is busy with cafés and, in December, the Christmas market, so ask for an inner room if you sleep lightly. Book La Cristallerie well ahead.
