What is a good place to stay in Duisburg/Rheinhausen Germany?

Question

There will be 2 people, mother & adult son, in July.

Answer 1

My favorite site for hotels in Germany is http://www.hrs.de/

You will be competing for hotels during the world cup. If you want hotels for that, try this special link

Otherwise, my tip is to try to avoid the cities listed on the previous link. Staying outside of town will keep the price low and if you stay far enough outside of town, you may avoid the hectic nature of the games.

Answer 2

Being from Duisburg originally myself I would say the best place to stay is the Steigenberger "Duisburger Hof" hotel, BUT it is located right in the city centre. Rheinhausen is on the other side of the river Rhine and does not really have any hotels etc. Try this link if you need more info on Duisburg ... http://www.duisburg-tourism.com/en/
