Hotel Max

Hotel Max is a small independent budget hotel at Adersstraße 65 in Düsseldorf's Friedrichstadt district, in the North Rhine-Westphalia state capital in western Germany. Friedrichstadt lies south of the Hauptbahnhof and is a mixed residential and commercial quarter of nineteenth-century streets, with Adersstraße running through its centre. The hotel is within walking distance of Königsallee, the city's famous shopping boulevard, and the Hofgarten park and Old Town are a reasonable walk or short tram ride beyond. The main railway station is south-adjacent and linked by trams and the U-Bahn, which allows easy connections to the airport by S-Bahn and to the Messe Düsseldorf trade-fair grounds. The area is livelier and more local in character than the station quarter, with small shops, bakeries and neighbourhood restaurants. The hotel's web address, max-hotelgarni.de, indicates that it operates as a garni hotel, meaning that breakfast is served but there is no full-service restaurant. Rooms are listed as single and double rooms, and the price range of roughly EUR 60-140 per night makes it one of the more affordable choices within reach of the centre. Listed amenities are Wi-Fi and breakfast, and no bar, spa, pool or fitness room is listed. For dinner, guests can choose among the many restaurants and pubs in Friedrichstadt and the nearby Königsallee area, which range from traditional Rhineland kitchens to international cuisine. The service character is that of a small, owner-managed property: simple, practical and suited to leisure visitors, couples and business travellers who prefer a modest scale to a large chain hotel. Telephone enquiries can be made on +49 211 386800. As with other Düsseldorf hotels, rates rise during major trade fairs and events, so advance reservation is recommended for those periods. Visitors should expect straightforward accommodation whose strengths are price and a convenient central location.
