Lufthansa Senator Lounge

Lufthansa Senator Lounge – Dusseldorf, Germany (DUS)

The Lufthansa Senator Lounge at Dusseldorf airport serves Miles and More Senator members as well as Star Alliance Gold passengers flying within Europe’s Schengen zone. Business class passengers who don’t hold any of the aforementioned statuses have access to the nearby Business Lounge.

Located on a mezzanine above the concourse area, the Senator Lounge is nestled between a staircase and a hallway. As such, it doesn’t feature direct views over the tarmac. Instead, small windows look out to the hallway, which in turn looks overlooks the airport grounds. Some daylight bleeds in, but the space is somewhat dark overall.

The lounge sports Lufthansa’s former generation design which is functional and but rather industrial looking. While the lack of sunlight accentuates the utilitarian look, the dimensions of the lounge – surprisingly large for a non-hub airport – make the space feel welcoming. Indoor plants provide a touch of freshness and color, which contrast with the otherwise bland design.

The seating area features Lufthansa’s signature deep armchairs. Every seat comes with a side table, a lamp and a power outlet. The spacious layout provides patrons with a comfortable amount of privacy. Coat hangers are located throughout.

By the reception desk is a dining area with dining tables as well as table top seating. It’s unfortunate that none of the tables in the area are outfitted with power outlets, though.

The buffet offers a selection of soft drinks and mineral water in glass bottles, espresso and tea, as well as beer on tap and a broad selection of wines (including sparkling wine), as well as liquor and spirits. The food spread includes German fare such as mini schnitzels, potato and garden salad, pasta, desserts, and fruit. Overall, the food selection at Dusseldorf airport is a bit weaker than at other Lufthansa Senator Lounge locations, yet there is still more than enough for a substantial snack or a light meal.

The elegant and spacious bathroom features separate areas separated by an automatic door. Shower suites are available, and towels and bath amenities are provided – a luxury for intra-European travel.

A spacious smoking room with table top seating is located immediately when entering, to the left.

In the back is a small business center with a number of small work cubicles outfitted with power outlets.

Other amenities include a selection of newspapers and magazines, as well as lockers in the reception area.

Lufthansa Senator Lounge DUS bottom line

Overall, the Lufthansa Senator Lounge at Dusseldorf airport is a peaceful and well-appointed lounge. While the design won’t earn any awards, the breadth of amenities is notable considering that the club is dedicated to short haul flights within the Schengen zone. The lack of views, and daylight to a certain extent, is the only lowlight of this otherwise solid lounge.
