What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Rooms are designed to offer a true escape from modern distractions. Tranquility is at the heart of the experience, which is why electronic devices have been intentionally limited, including television.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
In the Lauterborn countryside on a former mill estate, three kilometres outside historic Echternach.
The rooms
Bedrooms intentionally omit televisions, and windows upstairs look straight out over the bordering stream.
Restaurant
La Table – Archibald De Prince
Chefs cook at an open counter in the Michelin-starred dining room, and tables sit outside beside the stream.
At the table
The vaulted stone cellar holds over 500 wines, with a timber barrel set out for tastings.
How it began
The grounds spent decades as Au Vieux Moulin, a rural mill hotel, before a five-month renovation reopened the estate in 2024.

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.

A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.

Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
