Dortmund suggestions

I would like recommendations and suggestions for 3 nights stay, maybe near the railroad station; restaurants; and public transportation. Will be there in May.

Hi,

No specific place to stay I can recommend in Dortmund since I always stay in Düsseldorf when I want to visit Dortmund. In Düsseldorf I stay in a hotel in the train station area, Hotel Bismarck on Bismarckstrasse, ca 2 mins...all very convenient, internet cafe is Graf Adolf Strasse, 3 mins away. Post office is in the opposite direction towards the Altstadt....3-4 mins away from the Hbf. On Graf Adolf Strasse are also hotels.

Going to Dortmund is direct from Düsseldorf Hbf, you can also take the S-Bahn direct from Düsseldorf Hbf to Dortmund Hbf. (S-Bahn 1). if you prefer not riding the train. Both Dortmund and Düsseldorf are served by the U-Bahn to get out to outlying areas, ie far away from the Zentrum. I've used the U-Bahn to get out to Dortmund-Hohensyburg partially before having to catch a bus to Hohensyburg.

Just got back from Dortmund. We stayed at the Radisson Blu near Signal Iduna. Perfect location for game day and the rooms and staff were great, but a not-great location for everything else. I don’t have a specific recommendation but I’d try to find s place near the shopping mall or the Alter Markt. Have fun!
