Dusseldorf, Germany, is one of Europe’s most popular tourist destinations. More people are traveling there than ever before. For a very long time, tourists have prioritized destinations like Rome or Milan, mainly due to the warm weather that’s prevalent there. People have curved Germany and other Northern European nations because of how cold and wet they can be. However, things are changing. Trips to colder parts of Europe are becoming the norm. It’s worth noting that in summer, Germany can get very hot, too. This post will explore this topic in more detail and offer some guidance on why now’s the time to visit Dusseldorf.
Comfortable Hotels
Hotels in other parts of Europe are notorious for being uncomfortable and sometimes unclean, especially if your travel budget isn’t large enough to justify a stay in five-star accommodation. When searching for places to stay in Dusseldorf, however, you have an unlimited number of very nice options. The standards of hotels in Germany are very high. It’s rare to find one that isn’t worth the price the hotel is charging. Of course, just to make sure you are getting a good deal and the hotel you are planning on visiting is the right one for you, read reviews. A hotel’s reviews will tell you everything you need to know and help you to decide if it is right for you or if you should avoid it. As well as reviews, check out your chosen hotel’s Trustpilot rating. Trustpilot is one of the web’s leading review authorities and gives travelers insight into what the hotels they are planning on staying at are really like.
Interesting Architecture
Dusseldorf’s architecture is a mix of classic and new, with some fantastic examples of brutalist design. Brutalist design is not everybody’s favorite, but to those with the right eye, it is unique and impressive. If architecture doesn’t interest you, there are many other interesting historical and cultural sites for you to visit. Dusseldorf abounds with museums. Those interested in visiting museums (or any ticketed sites) should book an entry several months prior to their visit. Dusseldorf is seeing more tourists than ever before, which means cultural and historical sites are getting booked out weeks in advance. Booking entry months prior to your visit is the best way to ensure that you aren’t turned away upon arrival. You may want to consider booking your hotel rooms in advance, too.
Enjoyable Activities
Whether it’s cycling around Dusseldorf’s bustling streets or rowing down one of its rivers, there is so much to do there. A good way to see the entire city is to take a tour. Tours are ideal for travelers who are visiting and have time constraints. A tour guide will take you to see everything that is worth seeing in the city. Tour guides should be booked in advance, just like hotel rooms and event tickets. Most tour guides charge very reasonable rates for their services, so you will have no trouble getting a good deal.
Dusseldorf is one of Germany’s most vibrant cities. In addition to everything above, consider checking out some of the city’s famous raves, dance clubs, and bars. Germany has a strong drinking culture, so there’s nowhere better to party.
