From the station to the Arcadia Hotel

Arcadia Hotel Bielefeld
(former Tulip Inn, former Mercure Niederwall)

Niederwall 31–35
33602 Bielefeld
phone: +49 521 5253 0

From the train station, you can reach the hotel by the following means:

• A short taxi cab ride. You'll find the taxi cabs at the exit "Bahnhofsplatz" (there are only two exits).
  
  
• Taking the local tramway to the stop "Rathaus". The hotel will be right at the stop, on your lefthand side.
  
  The local tramway can be found by exiting the train station on the side of "Bahnhofsplatz" (take the escalator and you will automatically find yourself at the right exit), cross the square and pass the white hotel building. A few steps further, you will find the glass-covered entrance to the local tramway which is underground in this part of town.

• A 15-minute walk. Use the exit "Bahnhofsplatz", turn right and walk past the taxi cabs. Keep walking parallel to the train line. At the traffic light enter the pedestrian zone. Continue always in the same direction. At the next traffic light, you'll come to a big and ugly square. Cross the road and still continue in the same direction, on the lefthand side of the street. You will pass the Old Townhall and the Theatre. The hotel is in the next building.
