Meliá Düsseldorf

Top Lage und nettes Personal gerne wieder

Very impressed with the staff and quality of this lovely boutique-style hotel. Boutique-style, but with a strong bang, including a lovely restaurant/bar, sauna, and a wonderful and fully stacked lounge with drinks and snacks and tapas all day. Excellent location as well, so amazing to just spend a couple of days completing work and also taking time to relax and see Dusseldorf. The rooms are a little but on the smaller side but are wonderfully kept and have all the amenities one requires including excellent mattresses and pillows and lots of water and coffee. The staff are PHENOMENAL. I had my toddler and wife with me on this trip and they went out of their way to accommodate us. At the restaurant they brought my daughter toys to play with, and the food was fantastic (highly recommend the club sandwich). I congratulate the management on a job well done and as I am coming to Dusseldorf repeatedly for work I have my place to stay now.

Stayed here for a few days in room 606 Outside temperatures in Dusseldorf were around 27c and sunny. The room decor is very dated The TV had no physical media connectivity so you couldn't connect any devices to it. The TV apparently had Panasonic Viera for screen mirroring. However, that requires that the TV to be on the same WiFi as your device and I don't think it was. TV is locked down so was unable to confirm this but either way it didn't work. Tested with 3 devices and none of them could see the TV to cast to. No English TV channels, not even news. No USB sockets in the room Aircon is non-existent, I don't know if it's an EU directive to save Energy, but I recently stayed in a hotel in Hamburg which also had the same system, a little dial on the side that does literally nothing to the A/C. I asked reception if there was any way of making my room colder, they said yeah we can do that. So they can control individual room temperatures but we can't? Anyway, they said they'd make it colder but whatever they did, if anything at all, it didn't work. The minibar was broken, the light inside was strobing and was warmer than the room. The bathroom was nice although I don't like the open shower design as it always splashes water all over the floor. The bed and pillows were nice, shame I just spent the whole night awake and sweating. There were a total of 3 hangers in the wardrobe

Rooms decent, could do with some modernising. Breakfast is poor. Location is ok about 15 minute walk to centre. Not much lounge areas in the hotel if you are checking out early. Room relatively clean. Rituals in bathroom is a nice touch. Quite dull colours in hotel.

The Melia Hotel has deeply disappointed me and I cannot emphasize enough how much I despise this kind of unprofessional behavior. If such treatment were to happen in America, it would be unimaginable and would have immediate consequences. The observations I made at the hotel were anything but fair and friendly. It was clear that the staff was not only dishonest, but also intentionally trying to deceive the guests. This is unacceptable in any way, and I can only hope that the hotel is aware of the consequences. In the future, I will definitely avoid the Melia Hotel as well as all other hotels in this chain. There are so many other alternatives that care for their guests and maintain an authentic relationship with them. An institution like Melia should not be supported if they practice such tactics. There are truly better options that deserve to be supported.

Overall, the hotel is a decent business hotel with modern rooms, a good breakfast at a nice location in Düsseldorf. You can hear the noises of a major thoroughfare and the heavy trams which use this thoroughfare in the rooms towards the back of building . So, if you are noise sensitive like me, the rooms in the direction of the park should be your preferred choice as they are perfectly quiet. The reason for the low evaluation is the following incident: when I arrived at the hotel in the evening after a long day and a business dinner, I had to find out that my room had already been prepared for the next guest. None of my personal belongings were left in the hotel room! As the reception had correctly confirmed my departure date during check in, there must have been obviously a miscommunication within the hotel about my departure date. I can accept that such miscommunication within a hotel can happen. However, what I cannot accept is the fact that my personal belongings could actually not be found any more in the hotel on that evening after I did inform the reception about my problem. I was provided that night with a toothbrush, a shaving kit and some other bathroom utensils. In the next morning, my belongings still had not surfaced so that I had to go to my business meeting with the same clothes that I had worn the day before. Right before my meeting started at 9:00 in the morning, I received a phone call from the hotel that my personal belongings had been found and were ready to be picked up at the hotel, 15km away from where I was at that point. After an intervention of the corporate travel manager, the belongings were carried to my meeting location by taxi and arrived before noon that day. On the positive side, the reception staff was very friendly and I was actually offered a monetary compensation for the lost clothes (something I declined, as I was certain that the belongings would surface at some point again; as I had to leave for my business meeting at that point in the morning, there would have been no time to buy new clothes. And buying clothes at 08:00 in the morning in Dusseldorf is a difficult undertaking anyhow). However, being “nice” only goes so far for a business hotel. For me, it is plainly unbelievable that the personal belongings of a hotel guest can just be removed from the hotel room and disappear for some time. I have now waited ten days for an official response from the Melia management, but as this response has not been forthcoming, I feel I would like to share this experience. May be there will be a reaction based on this post. If there will be, please do not tell me that you are "committed to meet and exceed the expectations" of your guests. At least in my case, these expectations were not met.

Just a 1 night stay. Nice modern city centre hotel with attractive park next door and (not too noisy) trams out front. Check in was fine and the room a good size, modern and in excellent condition. Very comfortable bed. In room payable mini bar options but a shame they don’t throw anything in on a complimentary basis. Breakfast area next morning was nice (with also some limited outside seating. Food choice and quality was OK. Shame the juices are not freshly squeezed. Feels like a place that will do a job for most visitors.

The Melia is located near to an U-bahn station and about 15 minutes walk through a park from Dusseldorf old town. The hotel is a standard chain hotel with good facilities and efficient service. The rooms are reasonably good although we had a lot of noise from the adjacent main road as our window didn't close properly on the first night and we had to get the hotel maintenance team to fix this on the next day. There was a good quality buffet breakfast.

Very happy with the hotel for its service, cleanliness, location, room size and amenities . The Tesla charger was a special touch! If I have to give feedback - just a recommendation to increase the vegetarian options at breakfast and at Level. Overall, a lovely stay!
