Il vantaggio principale di questo albergo è di essere in una zona verde e tranquilla, sui bordi del Reno e di offrire un buon rapporto qualità/prezzo. A parte questo, non vi sono punti particolari di rilievo da segnalare. Le camere sono più che standard: se siete particolarmente sfortunati (come me, per esempio), sarete alloggiati nel seminterrato oppure di fronte al bar esterno (così che se vi spogliate senza ricordarvi di tirare le tende, darete spettacolo di fronte a tutti gli avventori del bar). Le camere non dispongono di minibar, il che, in un albergo a 4 stelle, è abbastanza inusuale. Il ristorante offre piatti tipicamente tedeschi di qualità media. La colazione è accettabile. L'albergo si trova a una discreta distanza dal centro di Duesseldorf, il che è sicuramente uno svantaggio per chi non ha una macchina. Se dovete chiamare un taxi, fatelo con un certo anticipo: essendo l'albergo un po' fuori mano, potrebbe capitarvi di attendere più a lungo del previsto.

Stayed at this hotel for a large conference in April 2005. It overlooks the Rhine river, which is somewhat entertaining sitting on the patio drinking a beer and watching all the ship traffic pass by. The rooms are small but clean, not much storage, bathroom very small, but in all no complaints. Dial-up internet worked fine, and it also has a T-Mobile hotspot. Breakfast was good, but exactly the same everyday - scrambled eggs, sausage, breads, juices, yogurts etc. Again, no complaints. The key to the room is huge, so I recommend leaving it at the front desk when you venture out. It is about a 20 minute walk though the park to the Benrath train station, and from there you can go just about anywhere - Cologne, Dusseldorf HBF, Messe (about 1 hr) etc. If it is raining cabs are available Dinner was fine at the hotel, there is a nice fish house down the street, and its about a 20 minute walk to Benrath where there are many restaurants to choose from. I enjoyed it, being on business and staying in a property different from you standard Hilton, Hyatt, or Mariott.

I have stayed at this hotel two or three times. It is situated on the Rhine river and backs up to the local castle (stately home really) and gardens. There is a running/walking path across the road and next to the river, which is great for a jog or walk. Or you can walk through the castle grounds, which is pleasant. The people are very friendly at this hotel. The rooms are small (European-size), but comfortable. The furnishings are ok, but the bathrooms are modern. There is a decent restaurant in the hotel. I have eaten there twice with good results. There is also a popular fish restaurant just up the road (
