Press release | Hotel new opening AMANO Düsseldorf

The art and fashion capital Düsseldorf blends big-city flair with a cozy charm and is rightly considered one of Europe’s top city break destinations. The newly opened Hotel AMANO Düsseldorf brings this spirit to life with casual style, contemporary design, and artistic flair.

Berlin, May 14, 2025. Düsseldorf isn’t Berlin – and yet the two cities share more than one might expect at first glance: a dynamic art and fashion scene, a diverse culinary landscape, an eclectic architectural mix of heritage and modernity, ample waterfront, and now – at least – one AMANO hotel. Hotel AMANO Düsseldorf is the latest addition by the AMANO Group, raising the bar for boutique hospitality along the Rhine with its distinctive concept and well-established standards. “Düsseldorf won us over with its blend of creativity, international appeal, and inherent style. The city has its rough edges – much like Berlin – but speaks with its own voice. We’re confident that AMANO will resonate here: with character, design, and openness to the new,” says Ariel Schiff, founder of the AMANO Group. “Our goal is to create a vibrant place – not just for travelers, but for the city itself.”

Urban lifestyle with a signature interior

The unmistakable charm of Hotel AMANO Düsseldorf is shaped by in-house Berlin architect Julien David Schaab. For the first time, an AMANO hotel has been fully designed in a proprietary interior style. Using materials like walnut wood, marble, and brass alongside warm, dark tones, a welcoming atmosphere has been created – one that gives guests from around the world the feeling of being exactly where they belong. Design highlights include lighting by DCW Paris and handcrafted tiles by Mutina. Statement pieces like the "Panorama in Chenille" wallpaper by Arte behind the reception and artworks by Oliver Rath and ZooZoo channel the signature AMANO vibe: spirited, cosmopolitan, and full of joie de vivre.

The public spaces unfold across different levels, yet remain seamlessly connected: through arches, platforms, curated color palettes, and shifting sightlines. The lobby becomes whatever is needed – a bar, breakfast room, co-working hub, or casual meeting spot. This flexibility ensures a lively atmosphere at all hours, with one thing always constant: the unmistakable urban energy.

Location, location, location

Hotel AMANO Düsseldorf checks all three boxes for an exceptional address. Perfectly positioned between Düsseldorf’s main train station and the iconic shopping boulevard Königsallee (or “Kö”), the hotel is also just a short walk from the charming Altstadt, the Rhine riverbanks, and key cultural institutions like the NRW Art Collection and the Düsseldorf Schauspielhaus.

Thanks to excellent public transport links, other destinations such as the trade fair and the airport are also easily accessible. Whether for business, a weekend getaway, or a shopping trip – Hotel AMANO Düsseldorf delivers prime location and convenience.

A peaceful haven in the heart of the city

Hotel AMANO Düsseldorf offers 92 rooms with warm wooden floors, premium materials, and a clean, cohesive design language – a space that invites guests to unwind. Rather than feeling like a conventional hotel room, each space exudes the atmosphere of a stylish guest room with a homely touch. Understated luxury and high comfort ensure a relaxing stay. While the vibrant city buzzes just outside, the rooms offer a quiet retreat for rest and recharging.

Behind the scenes

At the helm of Hotel AMANO Düsseldorf is Ulrike Sassin, a true Düsseldorf local. With her passion for hospitality, international experience, and strong hometown advantage, the seasoned hotel manager and her team deliver first-class service with a personal feel. To keep the hotel future-forward, Ulrike Sassin regularly thinks beyond her own walls, contributing to industry panels and organizations such as Dehoga, the ISG-Graf-Adolf-Straße, and the Business & Tourism Committee of the Düsseldorf Chamber of Commerce – as well as various honorary roles.

On May 21, 2025, the hotel will host an Open Day inviting all curious locals and guests to discover the space. Starting at 4 p.m., visitors can expect drinks, DJ sets, and – in true cross-city style – currywurst, as beloved in Düsseldorf as it is in Berlin. It promises to be a laid-back afternoon of guided tours, good vibes, and memorable encounters.
