I just spent a night at the Holiday Inn Ratingen. It is by far the worst 4* Property I have experienced in my life. If I would have know I sure would have stayed somewhere else, and not worried about the price already paid (41$ + Tax). Run down and dirty in the middle of nowhere. Hotel Pub highly overpriced drinks and unfriendly. Being close to the airport is the only benefit, and the staff at the front desk was very friendly. Cannot believe that hotwire even considers it a Dusseldorf city hotel since it is far off the beaten path. My tip is that you will be better off if you book a 3*, than getting this shabby place.

PRICELINE help Am looking for a hotel in the Center of Rome for a few days (Dec. 20-23) before Christmas. Can anyone please help me to get an idea which hotels could expect me for 3* or 4*, and how high I might need to go! Thank you!!!!

Your sister got lucky. I had gotten the Renaissance last summer and was hoping for it last weekend again. Sadly I was stuck with the NH Altona, which is dreadful. Never a 4*!!!

Am looking for a hotel in Central Rome for a few days (Dec. 20-23) before Christmas. Can anyone please help me to get an idea which hotels could expect me. 3,5* goes for 59 USD (airport shuttle and bus. center) and 4* for 99 USD (Restaurant, Bus. Center and High Speed Internet). Is the half star worth the price difference? Thank you very much for all the help I might get!!
