A new tourism-focused hotel venture on the shores of Upper Sûre Lake is steadily progressing as the government unveils its comprehensive feasibility study.

The Ministry of Tourism recently presented the findings of the study, highlighting a highly promising and unparalleled project for Luxembourg.

Examining various infrastructure possibilities across the slightly over one-hectare site, the study proposes the construction of a 12-bedroom hotel and 24 cabins accommodating up to six people each.

With this new establishment, approximately 120 guests can be accommodated, while adhering to specific criteria: minimising the impact on nature and seamlessly blending into the scenic landscape.

As a result, rather than sealing off the land, the project intends to maintain flexibility by arranging the cabins on different levels. Minister for Tourism Lex Delles elaborated, "the land will allow natural water drainage during rainfall, resulting in the formation of small trenches between the dwellings. The water will then be collected in a small pond."

In addition, the 1.10-hectare site can also be connected to Lultzhausen in the future through a dedicated cycle bridge over the N27, allowing visitors to easily access other tourist attractions in the region.

The project also includes plans for green roofs and sustainable infrastructure constructed using locally sourced materials, reflecting the region's heritage and character.

After assigning the site to the Ministry of Tourism, the upcoming stage involves seeking legal guidance to initiate the tender process, as the State will not act as the primary contractor. Private investors or operators will have the opportunity to construct the project in line with the specified criteria.

The authorities aim to establish a model for the future, showcasing the feasibility of creating sustainable projects that enhance the region's appeal to tourists.

Local stakeholders and producers will be involved in helping visitors explore the diverse facets of the region.
