TMJ Apartment 1 Overview
First Impressions
Walking up to TMJ Apartment 1, you’ll notice it doesn’t scream “hotel” in the traditional sense — and that’s actually part of its charm. This four-star property sits right on Kölner Straße in the Oberbilk district, and honestly, the location alone makes it worth considering. The building has that solid German residential feel, which means you’re staying somewhere that feels more like a local neighborhood than a tourist bubble. I mean, when couples are rating the location 9.4 out of 10, you know there’s something special about where this place sits.
The Oberbilk Advantage
Here’s what I love about staying in Oberbilk — you’re close enough to Düsseldorf’s center to get there easily, but far enough out that you’re not dealing with the constant tourist crowds. Kölner Straße is one of those streets where you’ll find actual locals going about their daily business, which gives you a much better sense of what the city is really like. The transport connections are solid too, so getting to the Altstadt or the shopping districts is straightforward. You know what’s nice? Walking back in the evening and actually feeling like you’re coming home to a neighborhood rather than just another hotel strip.
The Apartment Experience
The setup here is more apartment-style than traditional hotel rooms, which explains a lot about why guests seem to love it so much. You get more space to spread out, and there’s something refreshing about having a bit more independence during your stay. The 7.8 rating suggests they’re doing the basics well — clean, comfortable, functional — without trying to be flashy about it. I appreciate that approach, honestly, especially when you’re spending most of your time exploring the city anyway.
Getting Around Düsseldorf
From this spot on Kölner Straße, you’re well-positioned to explore different sides of Düsseldorf without feeling like you’re constantly backtracking. The Rhine isn’t too far if you want to walk along the water, and you can reach the business district pretty easily too. What I find particularly smart about this location is that you’re not stuck in one of those areas where everything shuts down after business hours — Oberbilk has its own rhythm that continues into the evening.
Why Guests Love It
That 9.4 location rating from couples tells you everything you need to know about TMJ Apartment 1’s main strength. When you’re traveling with someone, you want a place that feels comfortable and gives you options — whether that’s finding a good restaurant nearby, taking a quiet walk, or easily getting to wherever you want to explore. The apartment-style setup means you’re not cramped into a tiny hotel room, and being in Oberbilk means you get to experience Düsseldorf more like locals do. It’s not the fanciest place you’ll ever stay, but sometimes that’s exactly what makes a trip memorable.

What could be improved: Hard to find parking, Tv has no sound and has been locked.Very nice place, but the hosts don't respond when something needs to be fixed, what a pity – Marianna from Israel – 18 July 2023 (6/10)
The place is nice, even though it's not big. Its near the tram that will bring you fast to the central station.
What could be improved: The hosts didn't respond to queries. They said we can come at 13:00, then we found an unclean place, and only after 15:00 did the cleaners come. The TV didn't work, and they didn't respond. Something was broken in the bath, and they didn't respond, rtc.it is Ok – Elmabruk from Germany – 6 May 2023 (7/10)
