Hi, we are a group of "older" ladies considering Dusseldorf for the Christmas markets. I have had a look at the hotel reviews on TA but there are so many hotels! Has anybody any recommendations for the area around the Marktplatz and Konigsallee. Nothing too fancy or expensive! Any help in drawing up a shortlist appreciated and we can then narrow it down with the help of the reviews on here.

Welcome to my world ... !

Us "older ladies" always stay in the Hotel Alt Graz (I've posted a review) when we go to the xmas market in Dusseldorf. It's a lovely small family hotel (about a 15 min walk to the Ko), but on the plus side, it's 2 mins walk to the train station. If you're going with ryanair, this is also where the bus drops you off and picks you up to go home. The public transport links are great, so if you don't fancy the walk, there are plenty of options.

Proximity to the station also gives you the chance to use the great rail link to go to Cologne or Essen which also have great markets and are only about 30 mins away.

Send me a PM if I can be of any more help... and wherever you end up, you'llk have a fantastic time.

Ally

Thanks Ally and Andie for your replies. The Alt Graz isn't a hotel I have come across so far so will certainly check it out. A few of Andie's are on my short (but getting longer) list. Will check the others out. Yes Cologne and Essen are on the agenda too so it will be handy to be near the station too. We are not flying Ryanair so don't need the pick-up point. What a shame! Thanks again for your help.
