Hotel berhampiran Parc Backes, Sanem

It is a good hotel: rooms are spacious and clean. Rooms have the necessary comfort if you travel on business: there is a kitchenette, which may be very helpful. The wi-fi is very good and there are enough conditions if you need to work. The staff is kind and helpful. If you drive there, then the hotel has a parking area. If you travel by public transport, then you have to walk either a few hundred metres to more than a km. depending on whether you travel by bus or by train. Also, it is not so easy to get a bus straight to the centre, although it is only 2 km far away- Currently breakfast is served at the brasserie (arbre du pain), next door. The offer is so broad there, mainly with Portuguese pastry, that there is no need to purchase the breakfast at the hotel. Opposite the hotel there is a cosy Italian restaurant - Dimmi si.

Overall we had a very pleasant stay and would definitely recommend and/or stay again. In detail: - My partner and I stayed here during summer holidays. It was a mixed business & leisure trip. I worked in the lobby/restaurant for 2 days and Wifi was great throughout the entire hotel (no glitched, no loss of connection during conference calls). - All staff was very friendly and helpful. From the people at the reception, to the cleaning personal, as soon as we had a question, they helped us. - The rooms are also very modern, clean and with quiet AC(airco). I would even suggest to the hotel that it’s not needed to renew all towels every day. I’m ok with using my towel for a few days. ;) - Breakfast is ok. It’s all there (cheeses, meats, fruit, yoghurt, cornflakes, coffee, tea, milk, juices, eggs, toast & croissants.). It is fresh and tasty, but don’t expect a lavish brunch. I read some of the previous reviews and sometimes people need to manage their own expectations. ;) As it is a new hotel, some suggestions I would like to bring to hotel management: - I was missing a tiny fridge in the room. Luckily the staff stored our food in the kitchen, but I felt a bit guilty asking for it every morning. - I would invest in an AC in the breakfast room. It’s a very nice space, filled with light, but that also means that during summer it gets quite warm. Nonetheless: definitely worth a stay when visiting Luxembourg! Extra tip! Go visit the brewery next door + tasting and ask for Eric. Eric was our tour guide. He’s very knowledgeable and like to share his stories, which for us made sure we had a great time! Also the beer is good (bonus, haha). :P

Da wir die typischen Hotelservices praktisch nie nutzen, passt ein Appartement mit Kitchenette besser zu uns. Und das Residhome in Belval ist das bisher Beste, das wir gebucht haben. Die Ausstattung ist komplett, auch mit den wichtigsten Küchenutensilien und Geschirr, so daß man nichts mitzubringen braucht. Das Bad ist ziemlich groß mit ebenerdiger Dusche, was wir persönlich lieben. Ein großes Fenster lässt sich richtig öffnen, obwohl eine Klimaanlage vorhanden ist, das ist auch sehr angenehm. Das Personal ist durchweg freundlich und aufmerksam, man fühlt sich richtig willkommen und das auch noch 24/7! Ganz klare Empfehlung, wir werden beim nächsten Besuch wieder hier wohnen und freuen uns schon darauf.

We were touring by car and didn’t want to take it into the city, where parking is scarce and expensive. This very modern hotel is located on the main road into the city centre from the west. It is between two close-by bus stops with frequent buses into the city centre that are all FREE! There were several restaurants and a small supermarket within easy walking distance. The room had metal blinds to keep out the light and air conditioning, which was just as well as opening the windows would have let a lot of noise in from the main road. The room was very clean with a nice modern bathroom and would have been even better had it had tea/coffee making facilities and perhaps a small fridge (or an ice machine in the lobby). The door to the bathroom was weird, being just a sliding door with absolutely no privacy because it didn’t block any noise! Also, the inside of the door didn’t have a handle. Breakfast, included in the price, was really very good, with excellent coffee, juice, cereals, fresh fruit salad, yogurt, cheese and cold meat, boiled eggs, bread, pastries and preserves.

Ich war mit meiner Frau für einen Kurztipp in diesem Hotel. Als Zimmer bekommt man das was man erwarten kann. Das wichtigste Kriterium hat dieses Hotel aber absolut erfüllt. Abgesehen vom Rauchmelder an der Decke (geschenkt) war es picobello sauber. Besonders loben möchte ich das Team. Alle unheimlich nett und hilfsbereit. Wirklich super. Einen Stern muss ich jedoch wegen der Lage abziehen. Eine Anreise ohne Auto ist wegen der eher unpraktischen Lage sollte definitiv unterbleiben. Fazit: Wir bedanken uns und gerne wieder

Stayed here for 3 nights as part of a coach trip. Check in was quick ( mainly done by the coach driver). There are only 2 small lifts so waiting time can be long, no stairs to use! We asked where the stairs are as only on the 1st floor, was told we had to go outside and a member of staff would have to open a door! The room was cold on arrival but did warm up with the heater on. Twin room but beds pushed together and no room to separate them. No tea/coffee facilities, limited storage and space. Small but adequate bathroom. Shower was good, spacious and hot. Basic toiletries offered. and one towel per gest, no hand towel. Breakfast was OK, usual offerings, limited hot food but enough to have some choice, not laid out very well, with the que for coffee in the way of the cold selection. Evening meal was provided as part of our coach trip, no choice offered, salad to start, which was very nice, chicken and tinned potatoes as a main and artic roll for dessert, no water provided so had to buy drinks. Overall, disappointed as very basic, Ok for few nights, would not have wanted a longer stay.

We stopped for lunch on the way to Switzerland. My husband ordered vol aux vent and I ordered a chicken burger with onions and fries. The vol aux vent was only luke warm and tasteless the puff pastry stone-hard. When you order a chickenburger you would expect a piece of braised chicken ( breast) and fresh fried unions. What came was an unidentified circle of some kind of meat out of the deep fryer and some ready bought fried union crumbs out of a bag. We would have eaten better ( and cheaper) if we would have stopped at the local snackbar ( frituur). Afterwards my husband was feeling sick the rest of the day and following night! This is the second time that we tried to eat at this van der Valk hotel and the second time that the food is disgusting. I don’t understand why, in other van der Valk hotels it is ALWAYS good. You would think that this van der Valk couple running this hotel was placed here in exile as a punishment by the rest of the van der Valk family or they just don’t care! i guess the latter.

J'ai passé un agréable séjour à Bivius hotel. Endroit idéal pour un passage au Luxembourg, A la réception, M. Ousman est très à l'écoute, serviable et professionnel. un arrêt de bus à moins de 100m de l'établissement, on peut laisser sa voiture au parking de l'hotel et rejoindre le centre de Luxembourg pour travailler tranquillement. J'y étais pour la première fois et je reviendrais à la rentrée :-)
