Should be named tiny noisy room but not urban loft

Reviewed By joergmeyer2017

We got a room on first floor front side. No chance to sleep all night. For next night we changed the room. Have a look what you get for breakfast. This hotel talkes about sustainability??? The atmosphere indicates a youth hostel but not a 4 * hotel. Price value relation, we paid 356,-€ for two nights, is awful. Never again!

Lovely weekend stay

Had a great stay at 25 Hours - mega quirky hotel with awesome decor and a great work space in the lobby. At first our room's AC didn't work and it got to 30 degrees in our room even with the windows open. The staff were quick to respond and happy to move us once they realised the AC was broken and moved us to an upgraded room on the same level at no cost to us, as our family so we wern't too far away - that was greatly appreciated. Range of options at breakfast were great but as it got very busy there was often a wait for restocking of cups/tea pots etc. The lunch food was delicious as were the drinks. I would absolutely stay again so thank you for having us! Kristina & Shanta

Modern Hotel in Dusseldorf

Reviewed By zameerupa

This is probably the best Hyatt Regency that I have stayed at around the world. Most Hyatt Regency's are convention type hotels. This one in Dusseldorf is a blend of a business traveler hotel with a more luxurious feel. As a Hyatt Globalist I was upgraded to a suite which was very comfortable. The staff at this property is amazing. They have a make shift club lounge on the first floor where you can get coffee, wine, and snacks. It has a nice view of the water. The primary club lounge on the top floor has a great view but is still not operating as a lounge. Though you are able to use it if you like. As a Globalist breakfast was included and it was one of the best that I had. You can order hot items and indulge in their immense buffet. I believe it was a young man named Andy that had checked me in and he was exceptionally helpful. I would strongly recommend this hotel if you find yourself in Dusseldorf.

25hours Hotel Das Tour

L‘ amour toujours – a very special liaison in the new Dusseldorf district Le Quartier Central. Highlights include the restaurant and bar: The Paris Club extends over two storeys: The restaurant on the 16th floor is the place to meet for lunch or dinner. Visitors to the 17th-floor bar enjoy a spectacular view of Dusseldorf while sampling our range of French highballs. The rooms? Languorous, artistic charm and warm hues in the French Chambres, or straightforward design and clear colours in the German Rooms.

Has its Glitches, but High Quality

Reviewed By JanBerlin

I was surprised about myself: this hotel would normally not be my cup of tea, but I genuinely liked it! My "medium" room looked like a 1990's teen computer nerd room with loads of quirky items and design features. On one hand, function follows form here (not a thing I like), but on the other hand, it made the room incredibly personal and cozy. The numerous light fixtures (I think I counted about ten) could be individually controlled, which was a little challenging, but that added to the cozyness, because you could adjust the lighting to your individual taste. Speaking of function follows form: not single shelf to put shirts etc. on (just a wardrobe rail with a few hangers), not one hook for towels. For a longer stay not sufficient, but for my one night stay not a problem. Bathroom, though I am not a fan of black sinks and toilets, was quite spacious and had a great rain shower. I liked the fact, that the sliding door of the toilet could be used to block the entrance area keeping potential noise from the hallway out (there wasn't any). Be careful when checking out: the many design items make the room a little confusing and there is the risk of forgetting something of our stuff amidst all those quirky cushions, magazines, toys etc. Minibar was free and contained water, local Altbier, cola, chocolate and potato crisps. Breakfast was super! Served in the 16th floor restaurant overlooking Düsseldorf, the buffet was scrumptious, of very high qualilty and offered many French items which corresponded to the hotel's French theme. Made to order warm dishes could be ordered from the staff or directly from the chef at the open kitchen. Staff at front desk and at breakfast were very nice and atttentive. Location, though not in the very center, was good: trains and trams are just a few steps away and bring you in the city center in no time. Bottom line: would happily book a "medium" room again for a one person, one night stay. For longer stays or for two person occupancy , I'd recommend booking a larger room.

Best hotel experience I had in 4 German cities

Reviewed By michaelcB2603WY

The (non-upgraded) room is relatively spacious, well designed and quiet. I'm glad I did not accept a higher cost upgrade option. It was great for a 4-day stay. There's a separate area for clothing and storage, and a small refrigerator. There was a wall of windows, good light and effective blackout curtains. The in-room coffee service is nice - I didn't find this in my other hotels. The breakfast buffet is worth the price, especially considering the quality, and that a single cup of coffee elsewhere can easily be 5 Euros. It's not a train station hotel (one mile away from the HBF and the Dom), but this hotel is in a very nice area, and is convenient to a great many dining and entertainment options for a Cologne tourist. It's not horrible to take the train here (with one connection) if you are reasonably mobile. Public transit options are many once you figure them out. The USB charging outlets are helpful -- and I did not find these in any other of my hotels. Overall, this chain is a significant step up from the likes of Ibis and Motel One. This hotel is very much worth the reasonable premium it charges. Desk staff was very friendly and helpful throughout my visit. I would happily return to this property.

Hotel is located at walking distance from Königsallee and Japanese quarter. A lot of small restaruants in the neighbourhood. Worth staying!

If you love to sweat and be ignored, this is the perfect hotel for you

Reviewed By GoPlaces751734

I haven't been to Germany in 7 years so I was very much looking forward to this trip. The first evening we checked in and noticed the room was hot and stuffy. We opened the windows but too many bugs were flying into the room so we had to tilt the windows and suffer in the heat. The next morning we advised the front desk that the A/C was out in our room. In fact it was out in the entire hotel. The staff didnt' take ownership of the problem. We stayed in the hotel for 4 nights - with no A/C and it was stifling. When asked if they could help address fixing the A/C, they said Sure- we will send someone right up. I waited in the room for 4 HOURS (instead of sightseeing) and NO one ever came. This hotel used to be the crown jewel in Koln and I have so many fond memories, but it is clear from my most recent trip that the hotel isn't being properly maintained. It also is in serious need of updating. I am pretty sure the rooms have the same decor since the 80s- which would be charming if I wasn't sweating like a pig. I felt really bad for the tradeshow vendors that had to set up in the lobby as there was no AC either. Since the hotel has alot of glass it felt like a greenhouse. If you are planning to stay there this summer, I would rebook ASAP or pack cooling towels and portable fan. The only silver lining was the view of the DOM from our window.
