Düsseldorf's fashionable crowd heads straight for the MedienHafen, a tiny river port that in recent years has been transformed into a glittering architectural showcase of media and design offices, and stylish bars and restaurants. Last spring, the MedienHafen finally welcomed a hotel worthy of its main street: the Radisson Blu Media Harbour Hotel, designed by Matteo Thun. Its dramatic cherry-red sliding-door entrance and 135 rooms feature Thun's trademark use of natural woods and rich color combinations (ruby-red bedsheets and fuschia pillows). In the airy glass-walled lobby, young business travelers check e-mail by the glass-front fireplace (there's free Wi-Fi throughout) while others meet over cappuccinos in the bar's low-lying booths. Staff are eager and efficient—this is Germany, after all—and the breakfast buffet starts you off with energy to burn.
