What was good and what was bad?
Good:
- Excellent and smiling service
- My suite was not ready, but was offerred another superb suite (courtyard view) for waiting.
- As my partner was pretty sick that day, I was offerred to stay in my suite to work while my spouse was sleeping in the other suite: very nice touch
- Central location, in the most exclusive part of the city
- Elegant interior design
- Great club lounge

Bad:
- Nothing

Value for $ or IHG Rewards Club Points? Would you return?
Yes.
IC Dusseldorf should be, with Berlin, the reference for Europeans properties in terms of interior design and service.
The hotel is not cheap but definitely a great hotel to stay at
