Bottom Line

The InterContinental Dusseldorf is a 287-room luxury chain hotel -- one of Dusseldorf’s largest and most impressive-- with imposing architecture and design. The spacious quiet rooms have underfloor heating, lovely bathrooms, and turndown service, while the priciest have Nespresso coffeemakers and balconies (but many windows face internally). The hotel has an excellent restaurant and bar, and a good breakfast buffet for a fee. The extensive gym, pool and sauna are in a neighboring fitness center, but there’s an on-site spa and a 24/7 business center. Other facilities include numerous meeting venues, valet parking, and free Wi-Fi. Travelers could also consider the Hyatt Regency Dusseldorf, which has a gym, several restaurants, and 24-hour room service, although rates will be higher.

Scene

Stylish, busy property with striking, imposing architectural design 

The InterContinental is one of Dusseldorf’s largest, most impressive hotels, a towering property with striking design throughout. The bright, airy lobby’s glass ceiling stretches nine stories, with murals of well-known German personalities at the top. Down below, the contemporary front desk, with an attractive black countertop, sits beneath a gold-leaf design feature. Retro tub chairs in a mismatch of bright colors provide seating along with a striking green leather couch with a button-tufted back. There’s a large-scale, industrial ambience to parts of the design, such as glass elevators heading up to smart hallways, which sport beige carpeting, striped wood paneling, and floor-to-ceiling windows. Pega restaurant balances a neutral look with suspended red lanterns in the windows, cozy Bar Fifty Nine has seats upholstered in whites and pinks, and the stylish club lounge balcony sports handsome built-in dark-wood fixtures. All of it adds up to a property that's stylish but stops short of being cutting edge.

Location

Charming Old Town location, close to shops, restaurants, attractions, and the subway

On a posh block in one of Dusseldorf’s most affluent quarters, the InterContinental fronts a grass-banked canal on a quiet, tree-lined street. The hotel is in the city’s Old Town on the east bank of the Rhine River, surrounded by high-end boutiques, as well as plenty of cafes and restaurants. Many of the city’s tourist attractions are also within walking distance, as is the nearest subway station.- Three-minute walk to the Konigsallee shopping street

Tastefully decorated rooms with lovely bathrooms -- but many have windows that face internally

Features

Excellent restaurant and bar, separately managed fitness center, plus great lounge, and 24/7 business center

Facilities at the InterContinental Dusseldorf begin with the excellent Pega restaurant, which serves a good breakfast buffet (for a fee), as well as international fare all-day; room service is available, too. The cozy and well-stocked Bar Fifty Nine offers great cocktails, plus light meals until late into the night. In warmer months, an outdoor seating area opens. The hotel does not have its own  gym, but guests can use the neighboring chain fitness center (reached via an elevator from the hotel), with a gym, pool and sauna, at no additional cost. The hotel’s own spa also provides a wide range of treatments. Guests with access to the Club InterContinental lounge get a wide selection of free drinks and snacks, and there’s also a kids’ playroom.
