Travellers to any unfamiliar city will often feel a long way from home, however far it actually is in purely geographical terms. But it need not feel that way. Whether 100 miles away or a thousand, often what can make the difference to the mood of a traveller is the vibe they feel when they come to stay. If they feel relaxed, comfortable, well fed and caringly looked after, they could be a million miles away for all they could care – because they feel at home. Le Place d’Armes Hotel in Luxembourg specialises in making guests feel just this way, wherever they have travelled from and whatever the reason for their visit. The hotel is located in the pedestrianised section of the city centre, with a valet service provided to ensure any car drivers are taken care of. Guests will walk past the Post Office to reach the entrance.
The lack of traffic will do much to help create a peaceful atmosphere, yet the city centre’s various business locations, cultural attractions and places of entertainment and fine dining will still be close by. Of course, peace and comfort is what the rooms are all about, with large beds, individual decoration, free internet access, a flat screen TV, minibar, laptop safe and mini-dryer, plus a 24 hour room service menu. All that will lend itself to great comfort and a sense of being at home, but what really makes the difference is the spirit of the hotel. This is not something ethereal; instead, it is a commitment to ensure every guest feels valued and welcomed. It means displaying warmth and homeliness, charm and grace.
Everyone is made to feel privileged when they arrive, and the interior and exterior of the hotel both offer endless fascination, with quirks like its various patios, terraces and snug corners conveying the vibe of a private residence. Indeed, so much will guests feel at home in Le Place d’Armes, the only downside will be when they have to leave.
