Budget & Tips Luxembourg-Ville
The cost of living in Luxembourg is significantly higher than in France. However, cigarettes and fuel are less taxed than in France and the cultural offer as well as public transportation are much more accessible
The largest part of your budget will probably be for accommodation. Its cost is quite prohibitive, especially in the capital, except during weekends, during which important reductions are often granted, or when booking by Internet
Luxembourg offers restaurants for all budgets, even if prices are often higher than in France. It is not uncommon to pay 50 € per person... Many establishments offer a menu or a dish of the day at lunchtime for a small price. Many chains are also present in the city center or near the train station and allow to eat at reasonable prices.
Considering the cost of accommodation, the average daily budget tends to climb quickly for the average tourist. Count on an envelope of about 150 € per day and per person for a night in a 3 or 4 star hotel with breakfast and lunch and dinner. To avoid unpleasant surprises, the prices that we indicate in priority are those usually charged during the week and do not take into account the discounts, sometimes important, also obtained by Internet
Passport and visas Luxembourg-Ville
As Luxembourg belongs to the Schengen area, it is possible to travel there from France with only your identity card. There is therefore no need for a visa or to show one's passport, except in the event of reinforced border controls, as was the case during the terrorist threats
Health Luxembourg-Ville
However, from February to November, in the heavily forested areas of the Ardennes, Moselle and Mullerthal, beware of ticks that may cause Lyme disease or tick-borne meningoencephalitis, although the cases recorded are relatively rare. As a preventive measure, do not hesitate to use repellents and to wear headgear and long-sleeved clothing when hiking.
Mandatory vaccination Luxembourg-Ville
The country does not require any vaccine to enter its territory, apart from the traditional Diphtheria-Tetanus-Polio booster and Hepatitis B vaccine, which are included in the French vaccination calendar.
Security Luxembourg-Ville
Assaults, burglaries and robberies, as well as theft more generally, in the city and on transport, are rather rare. The emergency number of the Grand Ducal Police is 113.
Time difference Luxembourg-Ville
Luxembourg is located in the same time zone as France, Switzerland or Belgium. There is therefore no time difference.
Spoken languages Luxembourg-Ville
The three most commonly used languages in Luxembourg are Luxembourgish, German and French. However, English has a prominent place as a professional language, particularly in banks and institutions. Finally, given the large Lusitanian community in the country, Portuguese is also one of the most widely spoken languages.

Most hotels, bars and restaurants offer free access to their wi-fi network. Luxembourg-City and Esch-sur-Alzette are equipped with a free wi-fi system called HotCity. To access the service, you must connect to the "Citywi-fi Free" network and create an account. You will need a valid phone number (an SMS will be sent to you containing your password).
Electricity and measurements Luxembourg-Ville
Luxembourg uses the metric system and the same voltage as in France.
Luggage Luxembourg-Ville
Luxembourg's semi-continental climate can be surprising: whether you go in summer or winter, be prepared for sudden changes in temperature! It is therefore reasonable to bring, in addition to shorts, T-shirts and sandals, closed shoes, a sweater and a waterproof windbreaker. In winter, snow and frost can be a problem.
