Walking in to Julio's it doesn't look like much, small, quaint, filled with regulars playing darts or watching people walk through the Alt Stadt. We sat down to have a drink and were greeted by the incredibly sweet owner who was playing darts with some friends. The atmosphere is very relaxed and friendly, almost like being at home with old friends drinking a few pints. I ordered a Guiness and the boo had an Alt and they were as delicious as expected. My Guiness was poured to perfection and the owner jokingly made sure I waited until it peaked perfection before sipping (sooo freakin darling). Julio's is a great spot if you're looking for something fun and local. If you want upscale this is not the place for you. Great service and great drinks, totally worth checking out!

We went here on a weeknight. Great food and cool little place! Perfectly low key. Server was…read moreawesome!

Very Authentic! What does "Authentic" mean in Düsseldorf, a Northern German city? No nonsense, efficient service, and great German food, with the perpetual futball game on TV!

A pub you must love or hate. The pub is not much designed…read morebut I love it as it is. I love the rocking chair on the wall too. Another detail and always a story worth is the phone box and it is still working. Something not that nice is the bathroom, probably more important for women. Therefore, you should not spend too much time there. The staff is always friendly but sometimes you need to ask for attention. However, if you have been there a lot, you get what you want as you come in to the room. All together the pub is nice and I love to go there for a beer or even more. It is worth to try it!

It's a loud, dirty alternative-type of bar with decent Altbier from Kurzer next door. If this is…read moreyour kind of thing, then you might like it here. Later at night it seems the really sloppy wasted types take this place over, so it's not much fun if you're not drunk yourself. It's a Geschmackssache, as the Germans would say.

I really like locations like this, pubs with the charm of older days. Music was good and people…read moreseemed to be nice ... But why just 1 star ? That's easy, even if you are an "old pub" it is a must to clean the glasses more careful, not just draw them thru water (not using any kind of brush or something) and then use them again for other customers, thats disgusting. After seeing that we left the location immediately, and weren't to keen to take another beer. Sorry

And it is a nice little pub! They sell bottles of something…read morecalled 'stress' which must be pretty strong at 19 Euros for 250ml! Decided to stick, cautiously, to a Frankenheim Alt. There is a very nice feel to the place and they let me keep the menu when they saw me taking a photo of it (I'm a pub geek).

We had dinner in the Brasserie and it was very good. The restaurant is very beautifull with high…read morewindows with a nice few, maybe a bit to formal for a brasserie as the colours are very light. The use of more darker colours would make the restaurant more cosy and more accessible for non-hotel guests. The staff is very helpfull and makes you feel like a real guest. We choose the Nebraska meat Tartar starter and for our main course the Nebraska meatball and the filet of Nebraska beef. Both the starter and the main course were of exceptional quality and taste. The tartar is prepared at your table so you can choose your own ingredients. As the portions were very big, can be a bit smaller for me, we had no room for dessert, unfortunately. But there will be a next time.. that is for sure. Also a tip, start with a pre dinner drink in the Capella Bar this is one of the best bars I have ever been. And then also after dinner end the evening in the bar with a cocktail and a cigar in the special created cigar lounge.
