Hotel Weidenhof Düsseldorf City Center — Hotel in Dusseldorf

Not much to say here beyond practiced thievery. However, I am treating this experience as a lesson to allow these types of antiquated and subpar establishments die the slow death their proprietors seems to wish for. I actually did not check in till nearly 5:30pm. First move was to go to my antique closet with a large, actual key. ( how quaint!). Open my tablet to connect and experienced terrible wifi. Tried repeatedly as I am a technology Support Specialist, so I do not immediately jump to conclusions. The young man at the desk kindly rebooted their router and had me try again. Slightly better results for all of a minute. An owner/manager then “tested” the connection “just fine” yet it is still unclear if she was solely on wifi or cellular and cant tell the difference. I could see they were not going to acknowledge the issue and began inferring it was my device. I let them kmow Ive been on the road for seven weeks including wild areas of north Portugal with no issues whatsoever, so I asked for my cash refund so I could look elsewhere. THIS is when the gypsy style haggling began. Initially they only wanted to refund me half of my payment because I used the room. I pulled out a chair and sat in it. Nothing else in the room was even touched. Covid excuses came up, room cant be sold now, all deflections, although I do believe that they believe in the pandemic theatre. I could not get them to budge from 2/3 of my initial payment, so that third has now gone to my education and also bought them an accurate review here. Money well spent. Do not create more hassle in your travel lives by trying to save twenty to thirty dollars a night and giving these dying breeds of hotels a benefit...

My goodness!!!! It’s my tenth time in Dusseldorf and I have Finally found a hotel after my heart!!! Location is really a great bargain. You are not only 5 minutes on foot from the train station but are also in the heart of Chinatown, abneighborhood, that has so many asian restaurants with the best sushi I have ever tasted. Plus the hotel is 3 minutes from a renowned “Schumacher Alt” (the oldest and the best german cuisine in town). 20 minutes to Bolker strasse with all the pubs and nightlife. As you see, the location is unbeatable. Then - staff. This hotel definitely has the most sympathising and kindest people in the neighborhood. You just feel that they are happy to see you. ATTENTION! Plus they also sold us a day-ticket for 3 euros. You can ride trains and buses all the way to Bochum, Essen and more for ONLY 3 euros. So make sure you take advantage of this offer. You have to admit it is very kind of them and they dont have to so that but they DO care. Rooms are typicall german. Warm. Clean. Have all you need. Just enough. Breakfast was great. Good variety and (as always) great coffee. Wifi was superstrong and, again, the best I had in Germany. So. Book it. Book it. And book again! Thanks for your kind heart,...

We stayed here for 2 nights to take in the Dusseldorf Christamas market and the hotel ticked all the boxes.||Firstly its a minutes walk away from Ostrasse ubahn staion, very handy.||Check in was straight forward, we requested a quiet top floor room and that's what we got. The room was smallish but the bed was comfy, the central heating and shower worked fine and there was a free safe and tv as well.||We were bed and breakfast and the food was lovely. You had the usual bread and cereals and also hot scrambled eggs, sausage and bacon. Lots of coffee and orange juice to.||We enjoyed Dusseldorf, we took in a Fortuna game on the Monday night(17 euros each!!!) and a had lovely walks around the old town seeing the Rhine Tower and the river itself. And the Christmas markets are great too.If you land at Dusseldorf airport, get the S 11 train from the airport to the main station, Dusseldorf Hbf, it costs 2.70 euros each and you can buy the tickets from the platform machines, they are touch screen multi...
