Transportation Information

You have to leave in Dortmund HBf (the central station) and to walk to the underground station (the blue U signs). In the underground station (which is part of the central railway station), you have to buy another ticket (Preisstufe A, ViererTicket" for 5,60 Euro, this can be used for 4 trips. In case you travel in a group, also a ``Tagesticket'' may be favorable, which is valid for a whole day and up to five persons). Once more, you have to buy the ticket before entering the platform. Now, you take the next U49 to Hacheney. After leaving at the station Rombergpark (the trip takes about 10 minutes), you have to turn left and - after the bus stop - to turn left once more. There is your hotel! To go to the city center, just take the U49 (direction: Brambauer).
