Hôtel - Restaurant " Victor Hugo"

We had a lovely double room on the top floor (312) which was obviously recently renovated, with a nice view of the river, and also the castle (this latter only from the bathroom however). The room was let down however by poor quality bedding and towels. Be aware if you travel by car that there is no hotel parking, and parking is very difficult in the height of summer. We can't comment on the restaurant as we didn't dine in at all.

The hotel enjoys a central position in the middle of town. There is free parking in a small car park in Rue Victor Hugo about 10 minutes walk from the hotel. Not an especially warm welcome on arrival, there was no one on reception when we arrived outside to get information on car parking locations and it took five minutes to find a server in the cafe. On return the receptionist who had now reappeared was working on her computer and failed to  acknowledge us for what seemed to be several minutes. We choose a junior suite which was in a separate building adjacent to the hotel that is shared with private apartments. This was a large modern room with balcony. Bed was comfortable with good shower although lacking slightly in furnishings given the size of the room. Breakfast the following morning had the usual selection of food, although the only hot option was scrambled egg and unusually nothing much in the way of pastries. It was the only hotel on our trip that charged separately for breakfast so at €12 each, we would only describe the breakfast serving as adequate.

Nice little place. The 1 person room is like a dorm room with 2 twin beds (my company booked us wrong). They felt bad for us and upgraded us to rm 302 after 1 night and it was great! Be prepared, no coffee machine in rooms and be sure to bring your own soap, shampoo and conditioner (provided stuff is Spartan). Traffic and night party noise is intense when windows are open but that’s part of the “atmosphere”. Restaurant is very nice and an older crowd. Overall it is a great stay. We’ll be back.

So! A fabulous setting! Amazing, witty, friendly staff, locals and dogs! Great views, fantastically brilliant food (the cauliflower soup is amongst the best soups I have ever, ever had, including Michelin starred ones, and the traditional smoked pork and beans was utterly, utterly beautiful). They have a couple of electric car charge points too! Please, make a stop to eat and sleep here, you will not, I promise, be at all disappointed.

Nice and cosy hotel in the city center. Rooms are basic but clean. Really good restaurant, excellent choice of dishes and wines, friendly and helpfull staff. Sauna was a lovely surprise. We really enjoyed our stay.

This is a well run family hotel with nice and moderately modern rooms. Also the restaurant is good and can accommodate large groups of guests. Unfortunately the town of Vianden is rather downtrodden, overwhelmed by car and bike traffic. Except for the magnificent castle, the towns’s facilities are shoddy or closed.
