Christmas

Our writer headed to Luxembourg for a festive break filled with fine dining, breathtaking views and top-notch retail therapy, making it a perfect Christmas holiday destination

Luxembourg may be one of the smallest European countries, but its appeal as a winter holiday destination shouldn't be underestimated. With castles, fortresses and charming old towns, the nation offers a fascinating glimpse into its history, while vibrant cultural events and a trendy foodie scene keep things fresh. The chic juxtaposition of chocolate-box cottage charm and contemporary comfort proves that sometimes the best things really do come in small packages, as we found out...

And even more tempting festive treats can be found over at the Christmas markets. With a melting pot of French, German and Belgian influences, the markets strike the perfect balance between cosmopolitan and quaint. And there are plenty to choose from – from the spectacular Grand Ducal Christmas Market in Luxembourg City to the lesser-known stalls in surrounding towns.

An artistic touch runs throughout the lobby, restaurant and bar, and is echoed in all 145 bedrooms with cool, graffiti-inspired monochrome carpets contrasted with soothing pastels and cosy furnishings.

Over in Vianden, situated within a 200-year-old abandoned cinema, you’ll find Ancien Cinema. It’s a super unique lunch spot, with original cinema seats and antique spotlights accompanied by vintage chairs and dining tables from the 1960s. We enjoyed a hearty burger and fries – smothered in Luxembourg mustard, of course – while watching classic cartoons on the big screen.

You'll find Museumsmile on Luxembourg City's fish market. The 'Fëschmaart', formerly the intersection of two Roman roads, surprisingly, doesn't actually sell fish. Instead, the square provides a gathering space for locals and tourists to soak up the atmosphere of the city. Festivals and performances are often hosted nearby, so it's worth checking out what's on during your visit.
