Antares Apartments Overview
First Impressions
Walking into Antares Apartments on Corneliusstraße, you immediately get that feeling of stepping into something more thoughtful than your typical hotel. This four-star property sits right in Friedrichstadt, and honestly, the location alone makes it worth considering. The building has this understated elegance — not flashy, but you can tell someone put real thought into the design. I mean, when couples consistently rate the location 8.2 out of 10, there’s definitely something special happening here.
The Friedrichstadt Advantage
Here’s what I love about staying in this part of Düsseldorf — you’re actually living like a local rather than being stuck in some tourist bubble. Friedrichstadt has this perfect mix of residential calm and urban energy that’s hard to find elsewhere. You can walk to the Rhine promenade in about ten minutes, which is something I discovered on my second morning there. The neighborhood has these great little cafés and shops that you’d never find if you were staying closer to the main tourist areas. Plus, getting to the Altstadt or the shopping district is surprisingly easy from here.
The Apartment Experience
What sets this place apart is that you’re getting an actual apartment rather than just a hotel room. Each unit comes with its own kitchen, which honestly saved me a fortune during my stay — and let me try cooking with ingredients from the local markets. The spaces feel genuinely livable, not like someone just crammed hotel furniture into a small box. The rooms are well-designed with plenty of natural light, and you know what really impressed me? The attention to small details, like having actual wine glasses instead of those plastic hotel cups.
Practical Comforts
The building offers parking, which anyone who’s tried to navigate Düsseldorf by car will appreciate — trust me on this one. There’s also a restaurant on-site, though I’ll be honest, I only ate there once since having the kitchen made exploring local food spots more appealing. The staff strikes that perfect balance of being helpful without being intrusive, and they actually know the neighborhood well enough to give you real recommendations rather than just pointing you toward the obvious tourist spots.
Why Guests Love It
The 7.4 rating might not sound spectacular on paper, but here’s the thing — this place delivers exactly what it promises without any pretense. Couples especially seem to get it, probably because having your own space with a kitchen and separate living area just makes a trip feel more relaxed and intimate. You’re not rushing to get dressed because housekeeping is knocking, and you can actually spread out and settle in for a few days. The location really is the star here though — being in Friedrichstadt means you’re close enough to everything that matters but far enough away to actually get some peace when you want it.

Reviews of Antares Apartments
Nice comfortable stay but can be improved – Etrnlght from Germany – 19 March 2025 (7/10)
Central location and easy access. All amenities were functional and useful as advertised.
What could be improved: Some utensils and floor were dusty. Soundproofing could be better, street was quite loud. Earplugs were provided but it didn't hinder the noise totally but did not affect my sleep greatly.Comfortable – Ángel from Spain – 17 February 2025 (8/10)

There is everything you need for cooking, for hygiene. Clean. Good check in and check out.
What could be improved: Weak internet connection. Not enough space. Noise outside the window because of the highway (but you are given earplugs). Weak soundproofing in the room. No way to regulate the temperature in the room.Review – Daniela from Canada – 22 November 2024 (8/10)
