Which district to choose when moving to Luxembourg City?

Choosing your accommodation when you move to a city depends on several criteria directly linked to your lifestyle. Here is a look at the main districts and their advantages.

Residential areas

Limpertsberg, Merl or Belair benefit from an excellent geographical location. With their 1930s residences or their contemporary villas, they are an invitation to calm just a few steps from the city centre. There are many parks (Edouard André Park, Merl Park, Tony Neuman Park) ideal for walks with children. This privileged and very international environment propels them into the top 3 of the most expensive price per m2 (12,868 euros for a flat in Limpertsberg in October 2019).

Other residential areas: Cent and Hamm

Lively neighbourhoods

The Grund and the Clausen will appeal to nightlife enthusiasts, while lovers of old architecture will turn to the Upper Town, the capital's centre. The railway station district (Bonnevoie Nord) is characterised by its social mix, its privileged access to the public transport network, its green spaces and its local shops.

The business district: The Kirchberg

With the presence of the European institutions and large companies, this district also has numerous sports and cultural infrastructures. It should be noted that the average price per m2 of a flat is among the most expensive on the market, at 11,159 euros.

The new face of Gasperich

An additional 6,000 inhabitants are expected by 2025 in the Ban de Gasperich with the Cloche d'Or district, an area that has been totally transformed in recent years. Large companies are setting up there (PWC, Deloitte, etc.) and attracting new populations. A direct link to the airport via the tram is expected by next year. In addition, the French primary school and the Lycée Vauban have been located there since 2017.

Average price per m2 for a flat: 8,523 euros (October 2019 prices)

The stadium district: a district in the making

More than 10 hectares belonging to the City of Luxembourg should be transformed in the next few years. Its advantages? Close to the city centre and connected to the main traffic routes. A project to follow!
