Location & directions to Ratingen

Ratingen is located between Essen and Düsseldorf and is the largest city in the district of Mettmann. All the surrounding towns are easy to reach from here. The Medienhafen in Düsseldorf is about a 30-minute drive, and the Baldeneysee in Essen is about 20 minutes away by car. The Messe Essen and Messe Düsseldorf exhibition grounds are similarly close. And Düsseldorf Airport is only a 20-minute drive away, so our hotel near the airport is ideal for air travellers to spend the night before an early departure.

The hotel is also ideal for travellers between southern Germany and the North Sea for an overnight stay. The Breitscheid motorway junction is only 5 km away.

Haus Nussbaum awaits you in Ratingen-Hösel in a quiet area at Pirolweg 1, which is a cul-de-sac and therefore has little through traffic. You can park directly at the hotel.
