The Lufthansa business class lounge in Terminal 1 is located “airside”, i.e. after the security checks, and therefore concerns passengers departing from gates 60 to 68 in satellite 6.

Once the security checks have been passed, an elevator takes the passenger to the first floor (provided that the signage is found in this very busy satellite).

In fact the lounge is divided in two.

1°) The business lounge for passengers …. travelling in business, without special status.

2) The senator lounge for “Senator” members of the Lufthansa Miles&More program and Gold members of a Star Alliance member program.

It is this first lounge that we will discover today.

At the entrance, depending on your status and your ticket, you will be directed to one part of the lounge or the other.

As soon as you enter, you find a work space. Not a lot of privacy but it has the merit to exist for those who need it.

Then….the lounge part itself which, without being ugly, looks more like a cafeteria than a premium airline lounge.

Further on, a part that finally resembles a lounge and allows to settle down comfortably in a quiet place.

It’s clean, it “does the job” as the saying goes, even if it doesn’t make you dream. A useful or even utilitarian lounge, but forget any expectation in terms of experience. A blind lounge is never pleasant, but it is more the way the terminal is designed that is to blame, not the airline.

The restaurant offer is much more interesting (this article was written during a mid-morning visit).

An interesting offer of bread and pastries and, it seems to me that it is quite characteristic of Lufthansa, sweets!

Surprisingly, the cheese offer is also quite substantial.

Disappointment on the hot offer.…unless it’s my time of passage (I’ve only been to this lounge in the morning until now) that explains it.

On the other hand the cold buffet is very nice and varied.

On the drinks side there is the traditional hot corner as well as an alcoholic drinks corner…

Bottom line: a no-frills but solid service.

The lounge’s setting is not dreamy, but Lufthansa is making the most of a building designed at a time when passenger expectations were not the same. A blind lounge is never pleasant, but given the design of the terminal, it is impossible to do otherwise.

If not luxurious or really beautiful, it has the merit to exist for passengers who generally do not have to stay there too long.

As for the food, there is nothing to be ashamed of compared to what is offered in their medium-haul lounges by airlines that are well established at Roissy.
