Hotel in zona Playground Hohenzollernstraße, Dusseldorf

The bed was comfortable and the breakfast was adequate. The staff were polite and accommodating as we did arrive earlier and managed to get a room and we were also very kindly and free of charge granted a later check out. The location is certainly central and there is easy access to public transport. However, this is not a boutique hotel, at least in the rooms themselves. While the communal areas looked nicely decorated and stylish, our room did not in the slightest meet the same standard. We stayed in room 336 and allow me to itemise a few maintenance items that need attending to: reading light not working as was damaged; side lamp only had the one bulb, tiles in bathroom about to come loose and clearly a lovely water stain by the air con vent. None of these impeded a comfortable sleep or an adequate stay, however they did make the room look tired and not worth its value. Ah and when got a call to the room we were unable to take said call as the phone cord came loose. We attempted to put it back but still the phone would not work. We were prepared for the room being small and it certainly was small and did the job, Lastly, If parking on site do be prepared for tight corners and bends. Anything larger than a Mini does require some manoeuvring and care, you may well come out of the parking with scratches on your side, as you will notice by the many scratches left by previous drivers on the walls.

Era a Düsseldorf per un concerto al Capitolo Theater. Scegliemmo Leonardo perché era vicino al teatro. Buona scelta. Il personale dell'hotel era amichevole e utile. La camera era confortevole e tranquilla. Il colazione era vario e delizioso. Abbiamo deciso di prendere la macchina, ma se avessimo preso il treno, l'hotel è a cinque minuti a piedi dalla stazione. Possiamo parcheggiare la nostra auto all'hotel per un prezzo ragionevole. In tutto, una grande esperienza.

The location is great and easy access to anywhere. It’s just 5 mins walk to Königsallee shopping area and also not far from Messe Düsseldorf exhibition centre. Will be back again.

Come hotel a breve distanza, tutto è in linea con le mie aspettative. Ho fatto un errore con la prenotazione della stanza, ma l’hotel non mi permetterebbe di passare le date in avanti di un giorno. Ho finito di fare una seconda prenotazione per adattare la data di arrivo. Così ho pagato un giorno extra, che non sono rimasto, che è estremamente costoso. Trip.com ha fatto del suo meglio per aiutare, per il quale sono stato più grato. La gestione dell'hotel ha certamente qualcosa di cui preoccuparsi.

Is my third time stayed in Holiday Inn Express in three different country, I’m definitely recommend it to everyone who looking for a nice and cheap hotel to stay one or two night.

Sono stato molto felice con questo hotel, anche se concordo con altri che non sono 4 stelle è troppo alto. La stanza era una stanza decente, pulita e funzionale e per un cambio aveva un letto doppio, a differenza di due single spinti insieme, che è quello che la maggior parte degli hotel chiamano un doppio. Il colazione era ragionevolmente prezioso, ma non molto sostanziale - fresco e ben visibile, ma solo uova cotte in offerta come cibo caldo - senza uova scramblete, bacon o salsicce, e senza yogurt, solo pane, formaggio, carne fredda e cereali. Dopo tre giorni avrei preferito qualcosa di diverso dalle uova cotte.

Opzich redelijk net hotel. Echter, de kamer waar wij verbleven stonk enorm naar rioollucht. We hadden een flesje wijn gekocht en wilden deze in de koelkast leggen, maar deze zat onder de schimmel. Jammer. Verder prima, maar de lucht verpestte het wel een beetje. Overigens wel aangegeven bij het uitchecken en foto’s laten zien, helaas is hier niets mee gedaan.

First impressions were reasonable, but during our first morning at the hotel, everything soon went downhill. From 8am till around 4pm there were two separate 'evacuations' into the hotel lobby with fire and police services being called both times. After the first evacuation, we went into town, came back 4 hours later, only for the whole hotel to be evacuated again!! Hotel staff were short tempered and nasty, bluntly barking at us to evacuate with hours going by until they finally told us there'd been a water leak. An emergency situation is understandable and I'm not bothered about that event, but the staff's handling of it was utterly poor. A question about needing to return to a hotel room, after several hours of waiting, to collect an inhaler for asthma, was met with grossly insensitive jokes about secretly taking ecstasy and then we were ignored. This whole ordeal largely amounted to the hot water being switched off, which then remained off for several days. One staff member teased we would get 'freebies' from the hotel as a gesture of goodwill for the inconvenience; this did not happen. The main hotel lifts became unusable and after being instructed to use the service lifts instead, a bartender charged towards us screaming and being unbelievably hostile, refusing to let us pass or listen to what other hotel staff had literally just informed us to do. His behaviour was diabolical, but he made no apologies for himself and excused himself from the conversation. It was outrageous seeing the entire hotel be displaced in such a clunky and slapdash way. Most of the hotel staf were rude, blunt and pompous. One single receptionist was polite and friendly, and that was the woman who checked us out. Every three or four hours someone was knocking at our door or entering our room for cleaning purposes; we could scarcely relax. We've never felt so harassed in a hotel. The hotel cups provided were barely fit for a gobful of drink and they even took away our only spoon to stir our drinks. The sanitisation standards of the hotel were inadequate, failing to provide basic antibacterial or hand soaps in rooms; I had to use a face soap to wash my hands and the red seating between the lobby and bar was heavily stained with black marks. The restaurant always seemed closed, tha bar never had more than three tables with customers, the bar layout was so cramped that I banged my leg trying to take a seat and the entire hotel decor was dreary and miserable. Most of the TV channels didn't work either. I think the only positives were having a free apple from the bowl in reception every day and ultimately leaving the hotel forever!

L'hôtel est extrêmement excentré. Cela ne semblait pas être un problème à la réservation dans la mesure où l'hôtel est supposé être plutôt bien desservi par les transports. Cependant, l'hôtel déclare être à deux minutes du métro. Cette station est en effet présente, mais est la dérivation d'une ligne avoisinante. La station est fermée le soir et le dimanche et est désservie une fois toute les 30 minutes. Une autre station à 7 minutes de marche à pied dans un quartier d'affaire et désert le soir (et donc pas très sécurisant) s'impose donc la plupart du temps, et l'hôtel omet cette information de son site. De plus, cette autre station n'est désservie que toutes les 20 minutes. Comptez donc au moins une demi-heure pour rejoindre le centre-ville, ce qui réduit toute possibilité de repasser à l'hôtel pour se changer avant d'aller dîner par exemple. L'accueil est plutôt amical, mais la réceptionniste qui était présente pendant la quasi-totalité de mon séjour semblait de moins en moins sympathique lorsqu'on avait besoin d'elle. Par exemple, je ne parvenais pas à faire fonctionner le coffre-fort et visiblement elle non plus. Aucun mode d'emploi n'était mis à la disposition des clients ni du personnel semble-t-il. Une atre personne est venue voir si elle pouvait faire quelque chose et devait revenir vers moi, mais cela n'a jamais été le cas. J'ai donc dû me débrouiller moi-même. En attendant de trouver une solution le 2ème jour, j'ai dû confier certains de mes effets personnels à la réception afin qu'ils soient entreposés dans le coffre fort central. En raison de clients ayant fumé dans leur chambre d'après les membres du personnel de l'hôtel, le signal d'alarme à été automatiquement activé pendant la première nuit, et nous avons tous dû être évacués, dans la rue, avec une température de 10°C. Je dois dire que j'ai été impressionné par la réactivité du personnel qui à distribué des couvertures aux enfants et qui s'est montré à l'écoute des interrogations des clients en revenant dans l'hôtel. J'ajoute qu'ils semblait bien connaître et appliquer à la lettre un plan d'urgence. Le petit déjeuner était de belle qualité.

La posizione era grande. Vicino a Dusseldorf e Mochengladbach. Un fermo della metropolitana proprio davanti all'hotel. (in loco) Parcheggio non era una questione. Se vuoi entrare durante le ore di partenza, una chiamata/email all'hotel, o l'iscrizione a casa presso la porta anteriore dell'hotel farà. La stanza era pulita e tranquilla. Sì è piccola ma sufficiente per una famiglia di quattro nel nostro caso. Mentre il nome B&B suggerisce letto e colazione, il colazione non è automaticamente incluso ma può essere acquistato sul sito. Ci sono stati gridati perché non abbiamo acquistato il colazione in anticipo e siamo entrati e preparati a mangiare. Ma aspetta! Possiamo sempre pagare per questo (in seguito) giusto? Il personale che copre il turno di mattina quel giorno ha sostenuto che la gente ”normalmente” paga prima (perciò non possiamo pagare più tardi?!) .... Per essere giusti, la zona di cena era pulita e benvenuta, e cibo era li. Non c'erano segni che dicessero: ”Pagate prima di sedersi” o ”Aspettate qui per sedersi”. La linea di fondo è che non c'è motivo di urlare alle persone, giusto? Una semplice introduzione di un conto/controllo avrebbe dato un'esperienza molto migliore. Come ha finito l'incidente? Abbiamo pagato per il colazione, ma non abbiamo mangiato nulla. Andiamo in strada e abbiamo fatto colazione al McDonald's. Non volevamo mangiare in cattivo umore con un staff brutto.
