We are back for you! Our hygiene concept

We are back for you. Between “#stay at home” and gradual easing

For most of us, the past few weeks were probably mainly in our own four walls. And those days were often dominated – and still are !- by home office and “home schooling”, video chat and conference calls. E-mail and telephone. Meeting with friends and relatives, visiting parents or grandparents, professional meetings and discussions, visits to customers or training courses, even in connection with a trip? Absolutely not.

Certainly, some things can be done digitally, and many of all these virtual versions of professional contact will surely accompany us all much longer. Much of it works unexpectedly well. For others, we can hardly do without a personal encounter. It is even indispensable. In the current situation, we simply have to “approach” personal encounters very carefully again. Of course, all hygiene and contact requirements must be strictly adhered to. And this must also apply not least to travel and hotel accommodation. We are back for you again!

The hotel as a “protected room”

Hotels are actually a very special microcosm of their own, in which a whole world is reflected. It might be a protection zone, a vanishing point, a transit space. A place of arrival and departure. Or place to stay, for a while. Because people simply stay here longer. Travellers live here, even if it is usually only for one night. In any case, for much longer than in a shop or a restaurant or café, for example.

By the way, in movies and literature, hotels are often not just the “place of action”, but sometimes they even have a kind of leading role and are a central motif. As an independent protected space. For example in films like “The Best Exotic Marygold Hotel”. Or “Lost in translation”. Also in novels like Vicky Baum’s “People in the Hotel”. The hotel scene is told in a multifaceted way, with a great love of detail, sometimes with pathos. Sometimes even laconically reduced to a short formula. Like Kurt Tucholsky, for example. “Most hotels sell something they don’t have: Silence,” he wrote. By the way, this is not true for us at the Hotel Villa Meererbusch. And that’s a very special advantage, not only these days. So, we are back for you.

“Quietness”. Which speaks for us.

The Hotel Villa Meererbusch offers real peace and quiet. An important argument, perhaps especially in these times. We are very centrally located and can be reached easily, but at the same time we are very protected. Because we are

• a small house in traditional, quiet, green villa location. Only 17 rooms. With a correspondingly manageable number of guests.
• Centrally located and easily accessible. Very well connected, whether by car, plane or train.
• Close to Duesseldorf, Neuss, Krefeld, Moenchengladbach or Willich and Viersen.
• Only 10 minutes by car to Duesseldorf city centre. But not “in the middle of the hustle and bustle” of the big city

Distancing, mouth-nose protection and disinfection

We strictly follow the applicable hygiene and protection regulations and observe the recommended minimum distances.

• Mouth and nose protection. We kindly ask you to wear a mouth-and-nose protection while you are in the public areas of our house. If you do not have a mouth-and-nose mask with you, we have a disposable mask available for a small fee at the reception desk.
• Our reception is separated by a transparent plexiglass wall and spacers.
• All contact surfaces in the reception area – such as handles, handrails, card reader, etc. – are protected by a transparent plexiglass wall and spacers. They are continuously treated with disinfectant. We also have disinfectant gel in the reception area for the hands!
• We have completely disinfected your room key for you, just like your room, before your arrival.
• Hand disinfectant is, of course, also available in your room. By the way, and good to know: according to our concept of “sustainable accommodation”, our hand disinfection is also sustainable and ecologically consistent. Highly effective, yet 100% vegetable, free of synthetic fragrances, dyes and preservatives, without petrochemicals. With raw materials from 100% controlled organic cultivation.
• Of course you can pay us contactless. By credit or EC card. By arrangement also on account.

Some things are not as you are used to in our house due to hygiene regulations. In the room, you will not find a bedspread on your bed at the moment. We also had to put away pens, note pads, some bathroom cosmetics accessories. In the bathroom, you will find a reduced number of towels. If you need additional towels, you can always contact us.

Our organic breakfast. For once not as a buffet, but served.

Our breakfast is delicious, fresh, from regional suppliers. With many homemade products. Zero waste. Without disposable packaging and convenience products. Nothing has changed.

We would like to welcome you in our comfortable breakfast room for our organic breakfast, which we currently offer as a served breakfast. We kindly ask you to inform us of your breakfast wishes at the latest the evening before. Freshly prepared egg dishes, according to your wishes, are of course also available.

In addition to our regular breakfast we also offer a “small breakfast” (coffee/tea and croissant, for 4,99 €). If you have booked “without breakfast”, you can also rebook this on site. We will gladly serve it to you in your room at the desired time.

Anything else?

We offer a sustainable accommodation. Sustainable? Yes. Verifiable and without the currently common “greenwashing”. Here are a few examples: Electricity from 100% renewable energy sources (sun, wind, water) and 100% climate-neutral natural gas. Avoidance of over 8,000 litres of residual waste per year, environmentally friendly detergents, cleaning agents and cleaning products, certified organic hotel cosmetics. Now, also with ecologically consistent hand and surface disinfection.

We are a privately run business, 3-star superior certified. By the way, only a few days ago we were re-verified, and confirmed again for three years. With attentive service, which just goes far beyond the “ordinary” 3-star level.

We are not an interchangeable chain, but individual and personal. We look forward to offering you a “at home far away from home” for your journey. Comfortable and cosy, just like a piece of “home”.

We are here for you, and we hope to be here for you for a long time to come We are looking forward to seeing you. Welcome!
