The ferrotel Duisburg offers two meeting rooms of 65 and 85 square meters, with a stated maximum of 148 people, and 30 bedrooms in the city center. It is a SORAT partner hotel built around an industrial design inspired by a former blast-furnace works. Seminars, board meetings and small company events fit best here.

Both rooms are on the ground floor and have air conditioning, daylight, blackout and sound insulation. Each opens onto a small separate terrace overlooking the garden. Free wireless and wired internet are included. The room rate covers a projector, screen, flipchart and pinboard. Other equipment such as a presentation case, large screen, speaker, lectern or laptop is available on request. Speaker service items include a welcome drink, a room upgrade, fruit and mineral water in the room, and check-out until 4 p.m.

Catering
The ferrotel is a hotel garni, so the on-site offer centers on a breakfast lounge and a lobby bar decorated with old fire extinguishers. Ask the team how lunch and dinner are arranged for your meeting.
History and setting
The decor takes its cues from a former blast-furnace works. The reception hall is styled as an exhibition of compressors, oil pumps and switchboards, and some objects on display are loans from the Landschaftspark Nord. A steel wall piece in the lobby shows a scene from the former Krupp steelworks.

The hotel is at Düsseldorfer Straße 122-124, 47051 Duisburg. A hotel car park with 20 spaces is two minutes on foot, 100 meters away, with reservation on request. A public charging station is 400 meters away.
