Lufthansa Charles de Gaulle Senator Lounge (Pre-COVID)

The Lufthansa Senator Lounge at CDG is a solid, if unremarkable, stopover for frequent flyers. The classic buffet and familiar Lufthansa décor deliver exactly what you'd expect — nothing more, nothing less. Its greatest asset is the proximity to the gates.

3.3 / 5

Sicherlich keine Glanzlounge der Lufthansa Gruppe, aber nunja immerhin eine Lounge. Manche nennen es auch den „Bunker“ ja und hin und wieder werde ich diesen Eindruck auch nicht los.

Location

Nach der Sicherheitskontrolle in einem der unzähligen „Fingern“ folgt ihr einfach dem Schild zu der Lufthansa Lounge (gleichzeitig Star Alliance Gold Lounge). Diese ist aber bitte nicht mit der offiziellen Star Alliance Lounge zu verwechseln, denn diese erreicht ihr erst nach der separaten Passkontrolle.

For reference, the SAS lounge is also located upstairs, right next to the Lufthansa Lounge.

Lounge with tables and bar stools in modern design

Access

Once you’ve taken the elevator down one floor (or the stairs), you’ll find yourself at the lounge entrance. Your boarding pass is quickly scanned, and the staff — quite politely — points out the two sections of the lounge.

Amenities

This lounge follows the classic (or rather, older) Lufthansa lounge design. That means a tidy buffet and a mix of standing tables, chairs, and armchairs in the familiar Lufthansa style.

Food & Drinks

Here too, the lounge sticks to the standard Lufthansa selection. Nothing spectacular, but perfectly adequate.

Nur um es sicherzustellen, ich meine das echt nicht negativ, in meinem Fall war es mehr so nach dem Motto “ ich weiss was ich bekomme“.

Bathroom

The facilities are not inside the lounge itself but shared with the Business Lounge. No issue, though I don’t have any photos of them.

Verdict

For a short pre-departure stop, this lounge is perfectly fine. Don’t expect anything out of the ordinary, but the offering is at least solid. I certainly wouldn’t arrive extra early just for this lounge, but the proximity to the gates is a genuine plus. And since security wait times can be hard to predict, it’s at least a decent spot to unwind for a bit before your flight.
