MORE and more Arab travellers are choosing Düsseldorf as a stop-over destination while travelling across Europe. Home to River Rhine cruises, modern and old architecture, luxury shopping outlets, exhibition and concert halls and Castle Benrath, Düsseldorf’s famous 18th century palace, visitors to this city of culture can wander around one of Germany’s key 20th century art collections at one of the state-owned K20 museums, or simply head out and take to the winding cobbled streets to explore what this romantic city has to offer. The Hyatt Regency Düsseldorf, which opened doors earlier this year, is ideally located in the trendy Media Harbour area of the city. Due to its strategic location close to the Düsseldorf International Airport, the city’s most important exhibition and congress centres, as well as the town centre, the property is a convenient option for both business and leisure travellers. The hotel is located in one of two towers that are linked to the harbour by way of a pedestrian bridge and offers 290 guest rooms, 13 suites, four restaurants and bars, state-of-the-art extensive meeting and conferencing facilities and the Rive Spa featuring five treatment rooms. The rooms are all equipped with entertainment options including flat-screen televisions, high-speed internet access, MP3 docking stations and separate work areas. Large bathrooms, including rain showers and bath tubs, create an in-room wellness experience. A feature of the property is its 9,000 sq ft of event space. The 4,700-sq-ft multifunctional ballroom can easily be converted into two separate rooms and offers venues for all kinds of functions. Meeting and event attendees can enjoy spectacular views of the top of both buildings through a water-flooded glass ceiling. The hotel offers four restaurants and bars, with an open kitchen and views of the Rhine at the DOX restaurant. Situated along the Catwalk, it connects the hotel lobby with the restaurants. The lounge offers coffee specialties, cocktails and light snacks served by the fireplace while Café D offers a choice of healthy breakfasts, lunches, or dinners. The Pebble, located outside the hotel building, offers diners a 360-degree panoramic view of Media Harbour.
