Canton Mersch Vacations & Trips from $1,410

I'd booked the higher floor terrace flat. There was a really bad smell of cigarettes in the flat - all over the bedding and extremely foul smell in the microwave to the extent that it could not be used. My guess is the flat was used by heavy smokers and drinkers before as there was tissue paper stuffed in the smoke alarms in the bedroom and in the living room to prevent the alarm from going off due to smoke. While the flat itself is new and the amenities are good, there is no governance to make the sure the flat is used by legitimate tourists. Also, something to note - there is no parking, which to be fair was already known to me at the time of booking. They did explain that I could park on the street after 6pm until the morning and then did tell me that the nearest car part was at the station (which is a 10-12min) walk. The biggest turnoff was the severe smoke smell and the fact that they could send anyone to sort out the smell at the night. Net day after two phone calls they did get the bedding changed, but it took three phone calls (one in the night and then two the next day). So not good service. If the management wants, I can provide pictures of the tissue paper which we found stuffed in the smoke alarm when we stayed at this place.

Excellent stay, staff very helpful and great location for the old town but unfortunately, the main restaurant we’re having their annual break so, you need to be aware during mid Aug until 9th September!

The property was conveniently located across the street from bus#9 and several blocks from coffee shop, train/bus station and supermarket. When we arrived the twin bed was broken along with two door handles. The owner was aware but never addressed it. We just received automated messages since they were out of town. We were only supplied with one garbage bag and dishwasher pod. There was no soap, wine opener or wine glasses. Overall the apartment was ok for a few days.

The hotel is a good value and very close to the train station so it makes for a good base when arriving or departing Luxembourg with trams to old town. Room was modern and reasonable size. Staff was accommodating. Short walk to restaurants.
