Firstly, the staff are lovely and the building is a lovely looking building. No complaints there, nice and clean.
But, it has a big problem. The hotel sits right on the train line heading into Düsseldorf. The passenger trains are fine, but the freight trains are the loudest thing on earth, and they pass right by the window, which you must have open, because there is no Air-conditioning. And they pass at whatever time of night they want. So 11pm, midnight, 3am 5am. Yes all of those, I did not sleep well at all, and the curtains don’t cover the whole window, so, 5am, woken by the sun. We were given our 2 beers for the previous night for free as some kind of compensation, but be warned this is not a good hotel for sleep. If I had paid more than €50 I might have demanded a full refund it was that bad, but it’s not the reception staff’s fault so I didn’t, and the rest of the room was fine. Will not be going back. Car park is down the side. Seems safe enough.
