The staff is great, and the price is great for your budget! You should not expect the "Ritz", but this is one of those hotels that I would seek out as young traveler back in the day! The area is about 10 minutes or less from the train station, and not in the best of areas heading toward the bahnhof... More

I stayed here solo for 3 nights, as a final European stop before flying back to the states. The room was clean and comfortable. Decent bed, with a large window, decent shower, and fridge included. Friendly staff as well. It's about a 15 minute to the "city center" area with nice bars, restaurants, and shopping. Kolner Street itself (where the... More

That was my 2nd stay in the hotel and I can once again say that I was quite happy with the place. I had a late arrival - around midnight - and I was worried how this would go but it was ok. I was expected by the person at the reception. The one thing that I find a little... More

Hotel Famosa is a great hotel for the following reasons: Rooms are clean and moderately sized, bathrooms are newly refurbished, it is walking distance to the city centre, and is of good value for money. It is a basic hotel but this is offset by its advantages. A thing to note though, the street where it is located looks somewhat... More

Dusseldorf was my port of entry and departure. I stayed here after 2 weeks of continuous Eurail travel. I wanted some place to repack for the trip home and to relax before heading back to America. The hotel was easy walk to from the main train station. The room was clean and spacious to redo our luggages. A Netto supermarket... More

No frills, clean, small hotel in a rather seedy area of Dusseldorf. Tiny rooms, polite personnel, friendly prices. Breakfast is simple and a tad less-than-satisfactory, amenities were non existent. Elevator service between 1st and 4th floor only.

It was super easy to get to Hotel Famosa from the airport - it just required one bus and then walking a block and a half from the stop. The hotel had a very good price on a single room, and the room and location exceeded all my expectations. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the room and private bath were... More

Service was fantastic - really friendly, accomodating & helpful staff! My room was great - decent size, fairly basic, but very nice, with a comfortable bed & a big patio (bonus!). About 10 minute walk from train station & about a 20 minute walk to downtown... At first I thought it was too far to Alstadt, but there is shopping... More

I stayed here last year and this visit was equally good (my only ever 5* rating). Perfect cleanliness, simple but good facilities, private bathroom on the floor, no breakfast for 35 euros a night. Its about a 7 min walk from the central station, not the greatest location. A 20 minute walk to Konigsalle, 25 min to the old town,... More
