Hotel Indigo – Dusseldorf – Victoriaplatz by IHG

Hotel Description

You know what really struck me about Hotel Indigo on Kaiserswerther Strasse? It’s one of those places that gets the neighborhood thing right without trying too hard. I mean, you’re technically in Pempelfort, which honestly most tourists have never heard of, but that’s actually perfect – you’re close enough to walk to the Altstadt when you want that classic Düsseldorf experience, but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the weekend crowds stumbling past your window at 2 AM.

The building itself has this sort of understated elegance that feels very Düsseldorf, if that makes sense. Not flashy like some of the hotels near Königsallee, but there’s attention to detail everywhere. The lobby smells like that perfect mix of clean linen and subtle cologne (very German, actually), and check-in was refreshingly straightforward – none of that overly chatty front desk performance you sometimes get. What I really appreciated was how they’ve designed the rooms with these local touches that don’t feel forced. The artwork references the city’s fashion and art scene, and honestly, after staying in cookie-cutter chain hotels, it’s nice when someone actually thinks about where they are. The beds are proper comfortable too, which – let’s be real – is what matters most after a long day walking around the city.

Here’s the thing about the location that took me a while to figure out: you’re actually perfectly positioned between the Rhine and the main shopping areas, but on this quieter street that locals use as a shortcut. There’s a great little bakery about two blocks away that opens ridiculously early (perfect if you’re dealing with jet lag), and you can catch the U-Bahn at Heinrich-Heine-Allee without much fuss. Parking was easier than I expected for this part of the city, though I’d still recommend the public transport – the connections are actually really good from here. The only minor thing is that some of the rooms facing the street can get a bit of traffic noise during rush hour, but honestly, it’s not worse than any other city hotel, and it dies down completely by evening. I ended up really liking this place because it strikes that balance between being a proper hotel with all the things you need, while still feeling like you’re staying somewhere that actually belongs in Düsseldorf, not just dropped there by a corporate chain.

• Recharge in style in Düsseldorf – Eva from United States – 22 June 2025 (10/10)

  Spacious room with balcony, quiet to the back, comfortable bed with extra comforters, excellent breakfast

• Superb – Louis from Indonesia – 10 June 2025 (9/10)

  The location & access is wheel chair friendly so it's easier for me to walk my big luggage. The room interior is very good too!
  
  What could be improved: The breakfast variation are the same everyday except some pastries is boring for long stay. I stay for 5 night.

• Good value for money – Jarmo from Finland – 8 June 2025 (9/10)

  What could be improved: The staff elevator was just beside my room and in the first night it started operation already at 4 am… a bit difficult to sleep as that elevator is noisy.

• Excellent – Marlies from Portugal – 3 June 2025 (10/10)

  The receiving staff was very friendly and helpful.
  The room was excellent and exceeded my expectations
  
  What could be improved: The late check-in (15h ) is not very good for people travelling. You are on a long haul flight, finally arrive at destination and cannot even freshen up. It should be possible to enter the room way earlier, since check-out is at 12h.
