Advantages: Close to the main station, impressive entrance hall Disadvantages: design of the rooms
The NHDusseldorfCity is a functional business hotel which is quite close to the Dusseldorf main station. It can easily reached from there by foot or a very short taxi ride. There is also an underground station right in front of the building.
