Hotel Lessing

Hotel Lessing is a mid-range hotel at Volksgartenstraße 6 in Düsseldorf's Bilk district, a lively quarter south of the city centre in the North Rhine-Westphalia capital, Germany. Bilk is known for its student population around Heinrich Heine University, its mix of cafés, bars and restaurants, and the Volksgarten, a park that gives the street its name. The district is linked to the Hauptbahnhof by tram and S-Bahn, which allows guests to reach the Königsallee, the Hofgarten and the Old Town on the Rhine in a short ride, and the Messe Düsseldorf fair grounds and the airport can be reached with connections via the station. Bilk has a more local, lived-in character than the station quarter or the Old Town, and the area around the hotel offers a good choice of everyday restaurants, bakeries and pubs. The hotel is a mid-range property with single, double and twin rooms, and its rates of roughly EUR 80-180 per night reflect that positioning. Listed amenities include Wi-Fi, a staffed reception and breakfast. No restaurant, spa, pool or fitness room is listed, so evening meals are typically taken at nearby Bilk venues, where Italian, Turkish, Asian and German kitchens are all represented. The service character is that of a conventional city hotel serving business visitors, trade-fair guests and leisure travellers who prefer a neighbourhood setting to the busier centre. Visitors can find information and book through the hotel's website at hotel-lessing-duesseldorf.de or by telephone on +49 211 97700. Prices vary with Düsseldorf's trade-fair and events calendar, so reserving ahead is sensible for peak weeks. Guests should expect straightforward, comfortable accommodation, with the Volksgarten and Bilk's cafés on the doorstep and the city's main attractions a short public-transport ride away.
