Accommodation in Düsseldorf

Düsseldorf: Rheinpromenade, Kö und die längste Theke der Welt

Düsseldorf balances elegantly between fashion and Altbier: shop windows gleam on the Königsallee, the old town's brewery taverns line up into "the longest bar in the world", and the Rhine promenade turns every evening into a stroll. The Japanese community adds a Little Tokyo flavour no other German city can match.

The places to stay are just as cosmopolitan: 25hours Hotel and AMANO Hotel Düsseldorf Mitte represent the new generation, Avidon Art & Design Hotel the creative one, Altstadt Hotel Barcelona the short walk to the bar mile. Early flyers sleep at Airporthotel Düsseldorf, budget travellers at classics like Airhotel Wartburg.

Must-sees include the Medienhafen with its Gehry buildings, the view from the Rheinturm and an Uerige in the old town. Book directly with the host and your trip stays commission-free – with the tip on where to find ramen like in Osaka thrown in.
