Spacious House

Hotel Description

You know what caught me off guard about Spacious House? The name actually delivers – and I mean that in the best way possible. When you’re rolling your suitcase down Pestalozzistraße in Heerdt, honestly, you’re not expecting much from a 3-star place. But this spot genuinely surprised me with how much room you get, especially compared to those cramped city center hotels where you can barely open your luggage.

The location is sort of perfect if you know Düsseldorf at all. Heerdt’s this quiet residential area that locals love because it’s got that neighborhood feel without being stuck in the middle of nowhere. You’re actually just across the Rhine from the old town – maybe a 10-minute tram ride to all the action on Königsallee or the Altstadt brewery scene. I found parking way easier here than anywhere in the main tourist zones (which, let’s be honest, can be a nightmare during trade fair season). The street itself is pretty typical German residential – tree-lined, clean, with that solid, no-nonsense architecture you see everywhere in North Rhine-Westphalia.

What really works about this place is how it feels more like staying in someone’s well-kept apartment than a generic hotel room. The spaces have character – high ceilings, decent natural light, and you can actually spread out your stuff without playing Tetris with your belongings. Sure, it’s not going to wow you with fancy amenities or Instagram-worthy design, but sometimes you just want a clean, comfortable base where you can decompress after walking around the city all day. The 7.4 rating makes sense to me – it’s solid, reliable, does what it promises without any major surprises (good or bad). I appreciated that check-in was straightforward, no weird fees or confusing policies, just the kind of efficient German hospitality you hope for. The neighborhood gets pretty quiet at night, which is great if you’re a light sleeper but might feel a bit too sleepy if you’re looking for nightlife right outside your door. For the price point and what you get, especially that extra space to breathe, I’d definitely consider staying here again when I’m back in Düsseldorf.

Reviews

• Very good – Hugh from United Kingdom – 25 November 2024 (8/10)

  Hosts were great, very responsive and supportive.
  
  What could be improved: Downstairs bathroom basin had a small leak

• Good place to stay – Bilal from United Kingdom – 16 March 2025 (9/10)

  Lots of beds, large rooms
  
  What could be improved: Located in industrial area

• Passable – Sandro from Belgium – 9 December 2024 (5/10)

  What could be improved: Property description is incorrect. It says 4 bathrooms but in fact in the apartment there is only 1 bathroom and another separate toilet. The other shower room and separate toilet are outside in the common area. Besides, a tiny room with toilet and sink only is not called a bathroom!! Not to mention that what you flush in toilet comes up from the sink!!
  Not convenient for 19 people. Not even a sofa and absolute lack of furniture. One bedroom without heating.

• Very poor – Angiel from Germany – 11 June 2023 (2/10)

  There are plenty of plates, glasses and bowls, the fridge cooled our groceries well. The TV worked well (smart TV, Netflix and co.). There were cleaning supplies in the kitchen cabinet, which is important if you need to do some quick cleaning.
  
  What could be improved: Where do I start? We traveled with two small kids, and I thought I booked a place with a bath tub. We received "Apartment 3", which had only one shower (no tub) that had dirty tiles (the shower needs deep cleaning or renovation) and a tiny shower head (the big shower head you see on the photos was gone). I don't think the bathroom was cleaned before we checked in, either. I cleaned it myself with cleaners that were there. So no comfort for us in the bathroom.
  The kitchen was poorly equipped, if cooking is something you would like to do at least once on your trip.
  There is only one pot with a missing lid, a heavily scratched pan that is not meant for use anymore,
  The hallway coat rack is damaged so that it can easily fall on you.
  Generally, things that are not intact should be replaced, regular cleaning is also important to avoid mold and stains in the bathroom. It depends on what you expect when you travel, but if people are paying to stay at an accommodation and seek comfort and relaxation on vacation, this place is not it.
  Finally, Apartment 3 needs updates and a light renovation.
  The location leaves a lot to be desired. The house is in an industrial area.
  The next tram stop is a 15 minute-walk and there is nothing close by where you can go out to eat.
  Generally, this place is suited for large groups.
  For a normal vacation with a few people, I recommend staying elsewhere.

• Had a very long and bad stay. – Uday from India – 13 May 2023 (1/10)

  What could be improved: I will not suggest this property for family travel / holiday, its a make shift apartment which owner of the property have created, building looks like it was a office. This so called residence property is in center if industrial area, hence its very much cutoff & isolated from the main road / street. They have just loaded all apartment rooms with only beds, there are total of 15 beds in total 2.5 rooms. Other big minus point is that there is only single shower & toilet which need to be shared.
  
  Rooms do not have any cupboard, mirror & other base facility, also shower room cabinet is also very very poor and lacks all basic facility.
  
  Property host were just not co-operative, we had to actually beg & pay for the housing keeping, for our 12 days & night long stay only 3 times housekeeping was done, for which we had to pay 100% in advance.
  
  I have gone to Germany for 4 times in past, but this time stay & property was worst.
  
  Finally, Booking.com should do proper due-diligence, before on boarding hotel / property, for this property I guess booking.com has not done proper on ground validation / survey. Would strongly recommended booking.com to de-list this property from their platform.

• Oké appartement voor vriendengroepen van 12 personen – Maud from Netherlands – 12 September 2022 (7/10)

  Snel contact met eigenaars
  Goede locatie
  Goede indeling van appartement met vriendengroepen met 12 personen (2 slaapzaaltjes)
  
  What could be improved: Op de foto’s leek het appartement mooier en de keuken groter.
  Verder zaten er veel vliegen in het appartement en was het bestek en borden waren ingericht op 12 personen.

• Good – Weiß from Germany – 6 December 2024 (7/10)

  Gruppenzimmer waren cool
  
  What could be improved: Duschen waren kalt

• Pleasant – Martijn from Netherlands – 14 July 2024 (6/10)

  Goede communicatie met de host
  
  What could be improved: Op booking staat vermeld dat er 3 badkamers zijn. Maar er is maar 1 douche en 1 toilet voor 14 personen. En een gedeelde toilet en douche samen met andere appartementen.

• Very good – Tom from Netherlands – 13 February 2023 (8/10)

  Parkeergelegenheid was perfect. Ruim voldoende gratis openbare parkeerplaatsen. Sleutel gemakkelijk te vinden in het kluisje/kastje. Bedden waren netjes, schoon en lagen goed. Keuken heeft goede koelkast, oven. Qua omgeving is de locatie ook goed, niks te doen, maar wel goed om met een groep te zetten.
  
  What could be improved: Koffiezetapparaat is waardeloos. Duurt heel lang voordat de koffie doorgelopen is. 2 douches is wat weinig voor 22 personen. Redelijk stukje uit het centrum. Met ubers en taxis wel goed bereikbaar.

• Goede prijs met niet zo goed appartement – Ingmar from Belgium – 19 September 2024 (6/10)

  Is een goedkope plaats met genoeg bedden die comfortabel liggen. De bedden waren proper (de wc’s wat minder). Er waren juist genoeg stoelen en plaats om de tafels te arrangeren zodat we samen konden zitten maar er is heel weinig plaats over het algemeen.
  
  What could be improved: Er was maar 1 kookpot, pan etc wat koken dus onmogelijk maakt voor groepen van 9 man wat ambetant is aangezien het zo voor groepen geadverteerd is. De douche beneden (gedeeld) en boven zijn een ramp. Beide douches lopen heel erg over waardoor heel de ruimte vol met water staat. De douche beneden is ook heel slecht te regelen en is of kokend heet of koud. De website is misleidend want het mixt de twee appartementen.
