Your typical European hotel. Maybe?…read more Pros: 1) Hand soap, shower gel, shampoo, blow-dryer, and Q-tips are included. 2) The mini fridge is complimentary and replenished daily: two bottles of beer, one bottle of still water, one bottle of sparkling water, one bag of potato chips, and one chocolate/candy bar. 3) Downtown is just across the street with plenty of restaurants, cafes, and small shops to shop and browse. 4) The restaurant in the first floor is top notch with a variety of choices, from curry bratwurst to rump steak. 5) Breakfast is buffet style and complimentary. There is a wide selection to choose from: juice bar, espresso bar, bread rolls, ham, smoked salmon, muesli, yogurt, fruits, etc. 6) The hotel staff is incredibly polite and considerate. If you're staying in your room over the weekend catching up on work, they would not disturb you and attempt to clean the room. They will either wait for you to leave the room or kindly give you a call to inquire if you wish to have your room cleaned. 7) Wi-Fi was very stable and consistent throughout our two week stay. Cons: 1) They do not provide body lotion and hair conditioner. But they can be easily found at a close-by super market, Lidl. 2) The hotel does not have a gym facility. Your only other choice is to run outdoors. 3) The rooms do not have air conditioning but there are tall windows.

Ringhotel Drees, is a hotel in between two worlds. Partly outdated and partly of good stature…read more Unfortunately the first prevails. Is was long ago I had to pay for an only 24h valid internet voucher. That if you want use requires to stay awake the full night. Unfortunately the rooms are not to inviting to stay awake the night. Outdated is the general stile indication. Price quality wise it is even in a worse condition. Being a meeting guest at the hotel I unfortunately am paying a way to high price in comparison to almost all other hotels I stayed in Germany. Even the bar in the basement has the warm ambiance of exactly that what it is a basement. Crapy music and a service with a smile. I should if have known that the hotel had it's quarks, when I booked per phone. My German is not bad, but I really thought I dialed an east European number. Literally had to ask if this was a German number I called. Would this be a hotel to stay in next time?... Answer found even faster then Google would search the web. No! Rather take my changes in Dortmund traffic jams and enjoy a different hotel.

I was passing through on a train trip and stayed the day/night on a rainy miserable day in Dortmund. I was pleasantly surprised by the basement hotel bar. Good food. Good wait staff. Friendly. Nice environment. Very good breakfast in the morning. We got a taxi in like 5 minutes after checkout. Not sure of the location relative to things to do because I never left the hotel.

Naturally, there is some potential for improvement here: I understand the concept of "make your own minibar", which is actually great, but in this case, the minibar in the room should be absolutely clean and not worn out and rusty on the bottom. Hotel without free WiFi is a 10 years old concept. Actually a free wifi is no benefit today. It is just normal and anything else creates feeling of disappointment. The hygiene equipment is a little scarce for two in a double room. And I would definitely prefer a different solution than a curtain in a bath. Overal a nice place to stay. Breakfast is nice with a good choice. (Great selection of ham etc as well as pastry). Unfortunately, the otherwise kind and professional staff should ask whether the customer likes a regular cappuccino or the horendous german version with a cocoa on top...
