About

Hotel Asahi

Hotel Asahi sits on Kurfuerstenstrasse, a short walk from Dusseldorf's main train station and the lively bars and restaurants around it. The hotel's name hints at its Japanese influence, which shows in the service style and the popular Japanese-style buffet breakfast. It's a practical base for exploring the city, whether you're here for work or a short break.

The 137 rooms range from Singles to a Penthouse with a balcony, and each comes with thoughtful touches like tea and coffee facilities, a flat-screen TV, and free toiletries. Some rooms, like the Junior Suite and Suite City View, add a coffee machine, and the latter even has its own sauna. Throughout, the atmosphere is calm and efficient, with a 24-hour reception, express check-in/out, and a business centre for guests who need to stay productive.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Central and connected — A short walk from Dusseldorf's main train station, the hotel is surrounded by bars, restaurants, and the Japanese quarter, making it an easy base for exploring or for business.
  • Japanese character — From the name to the service and the buffet breakfast with Japanese options, the hotel offers a distinct cultural touch that guests repeatedly mention as a highlight.
  • Well-equipped rooms — Guests describe the rooms as modern, spacious, and clean, with practical extras like work desks, coffee machines, kettles, and flat-screen TVs.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Basement gym and sauna — The fitness room and sauna are in the basement, and the layout has been called poor, which puts some guests off using them despite decent equipment.
  • Value rating below the rest — The Value score sits at 7.8, a touch lower than the overall 8.0 rating, suggesting that some guests find rates high for what's offered, especially given the starting price of £260 per night.
  • Inconsistent facility scores — Facilities and General categories both score 7.7, the lowest among the categories, pointing to a less consistent experience in shared areas despite the strong room reviews.

“Friendly staff all around – from reception to housekeeping – made us feel at home.”

8Verified guest

“Great location close to the station and restaurants, but the gym and sauna were a letdown. They're in a basement with poor layout, which put us off using them, even though the equipment and sauna were good.”

8Verified guest

“A really pleasant stay on a business trip. Staff were nice, location was perfect – just near the railway station, with bars and restaurants close by. The room was tastefully done and spotlessly clean with everything I needed.”

8Verified guest

“We got a free upgrade to a Japanese-style room, which was a nice touch. It had a work desk, coffee/tea makers, and a TV.”

8Verified guest

“Good value, and the location is unbeatable for the Japanese district. The Japanese reception staff were notably friendly for a German hotel.”

“Rooms are updated and spacious, with two twin beds, a work table, and a Nespresso machine. Nice little details throughout. Excellent service and good facilities, including parking outside.”
