4-star hotels in Ettelbruck
Two 4-star hotels in and around Ettelbruck, the rail junction town that works as a base for the Ardennes, Vianden and Clervaux. This shortlist is for travellers who want a comfortable night near the station, the General Patton museum and the Sûre riverside paths.
Staying in Ettelbruck
Ettelbruck is a rail junction town in the north of Luxembourg, home to the General Patton museum and a gateway to the Ardennes. Grand-Rue runs about 400m from the station to Place Marie-Adélaïde and is entirely walkable in under ten minutes. The town suits families more than solo travellers expecting nightlife: the riverside paths and the market are pleasant, and the museum gives children a history hook before a castle day.
The two hotels here sit outside the town centre. Hotel Martha is in Mersch, while Hôtel Restaurant DAHM is in Erpeldange, a village west along the Sûre. Both are 4-star and well reviewed, so they work for couples, families and business travellers who don't mind being a short trip from Ettelbruck's station and restaurants.

Plan your stay
Getting there and around
Ettelbruck is the country's second rail hub. Direct trains run from Luxembourg Gare every 30 minutes, a 25-minute journey, free. Onward trains go north to Clervaux and Troisvierges on the Belgian border. Bus 570 goes to Vianden every 30 minutes, a 25-minute journey. Bus 100 serves Diekirch, Bourscheid and Esch-sur-Sûre. From Findel Airport, take bus 16 to Luxembourg Gare then the train, about 55 minutes total. Once in town, Grand-Rue, the museum and the market square all sit within a 10-minute walk of the station, so a car is only useful for the surrounding villages and gîtes.
When to go
Pack for rain — the Ardennes microclimate is wetter than the capital. The Saturday market is a reason to plan around a weekend, and the Patton museum and riverside walk fill half a day at most. The site context gives no seasonal breakdown, so check conditions before a castle day to Vianden or Clervaux.
