The Nachtresidenz Düsseldorf

When we went in, the cashier said we had to spend a min of 10€ at the bar. Which was fine, whatever. But when we left (after about an hour bc the vibe in there was sooo bad it was genuinely so boring), we didn't get any drinks and the cashier at the exit told us we had to pay 20€. I told him we were supposed to just pay 10€ and he just said "that's not my problem, you can discuss that with the other cashier at the entrance, here you have to pay 20€ to leave". Don't come here unless you wanna get ripped off.

I cant stress this enough, don’t go to this place. Its horrible and they make you feel like they are mafia. When leaving the place we were charged extra and when we asked why we were man handled very roughly and they took hold of our clothes and pushed us out. Hitting girls is not above them. They are the worst. And i wanted to call the police. I have fortunately documented what happened. Also they have the worst music and organization. Also we had reservations and they made us wait over an hour in the cold. I don’t know how this place is still working. Girls be careful.

I once again witnessed today that this club’s management is extremely negligent, stubbornly refusing to ever take their customers’ opinions into account. As you can see from other reviews, this issue has been raised for a long time. It's not just "a few" unfortunate incident! Bouncers basic attitude and overall atmosphere give off the impression that they see themselves as nobles of this world, acting as if they are of a different class from the very customers who come here. For example, when my friend was entering, he was holding not alcohol but just a soft drink. Instead of simply informing him that outside drinks were not allowed, the tallest bouncer at the entrance kept signaling(that disgusting wiggling) with his finger, as if ordering around a servant, to get rid of the drink, repeating this gesture until my friend himself realized that drinks could not be brought inside. This was extremely humiliating and embarrassing action. There is absolutely no other club in Düsseldorf that treats its guests in such a way. And yet, these bouncers seem to carry some strange sense of pride, as if merely being assigned the "role of a gatekeeper" at this one location has inflated their egos far beyond what is reasonable. It is honestly repulsive. On top of that, the bouncers show extremely biased and discriminatory attitudes toward different guests. They are all customers, none of whom did anything wrong to begin with, yet the bouncers behave with inconsistency from person to person. (Whether this is based on race or gender is something you can also notice if you read other reviews of this place.) Such lack of consistency is shameful and reflects the very low standards of this club. I doubt the management of this club will ever care about reviews like this. To them, business, money, and how to sell alcohol at the highest price come first, while providing better service to their customers does not matter at all 😊 This is not even the full extent of the problems here, but I am truly not the type of person who normally writes reviews, yet this club is just that serious. To all other potential customers: unless there is any change in this club and its management, I ABSOLUTELY do not recommend using this place for your night out

What to expect from a place that has 3 stars? Everyone should see the reviews before going to this place. Everyone talks about how rude and prejudiced they are. I went only because an acquaintance took me and my wife. Arriving there we went in with him and in the end an unprepared manager wanted us to have consumption cards and they didn't give us anything at the entrance. It's there on the cameras and he was "checking" the cameras for half an hour without letting us leave. Clearly a prejudiced. He called the police because we wanted to leave! And all because of her own fault that they don't know how to do their job. Don't waste your time going to this unprepared house! I'm going to submit a request to get the cameras and process them, because I had an embarrassment because of their lack of professionalism. Peaches party

Very good club. The ambience is large, there are usually two music floors, several lounges and several bars. The acoustics and technology were good and the prices were not too expensive. We had a nice evening.

Cool disco !! Amazing sound but awful toilets - too small for the place - ladies you will have a hard time

Man we were 4 people and at the entrance and we booked reservations and they told us that we cant go in because we are too many people, that we have 1 bottle of water and that we were wearing "sportly" looking jackets. Just imagine our reaction. They are only letting in girls no matter what they look like. They were very rude for no reason.I now understand why the rating is 3 stars. Dont go there just save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere. If I could give 0 stars I would

Lame. bars don't have any regular drinks (tequila, wine). Literally only posers. Toilets filthy and out of toilet paper. You could go to a $5 club and get the same level of service. Embarrassing

I did know that is a Turkish night! The music was for a limited crowd. It would be nice to know in advance.

So I went to the Nachtresidenz for the first time this past Saturday and I was so impressed. We don't have these kind of fancy shmancy nightclubs in Cologne (correct me if I'm wrong). The venue was pretty large, with a VIP area and several bars. For this particular event, they had cameras setup at the entrance so you could take a pretty picture of yourself upon arrival. Awesome DJ, flashing lights, at least 2 stages... awesome.

My German is a little rusty, so please bear with me on this one: Fück.This.Plaße. In my mind, this place is a flaming one-star at it's very best, but I'll be fair and give them 2-stars since I wasn't actually good-looking or young enough to get in here. That's right. Yours truly, Quasimodo, and the rest of my gremlin friends were turned away at the door... while the club was empty. Ain't that some sh*t? Womp, womp. It's okay. Don't cry for me, Argentina... none of us really wanted to go here anyway. I took 3 years of German in high school and was president of the Foreign Language society but sadly, didn't learn the one phrase I desperately needed tonight. So to quote (in English) one of my heroes, the late, great Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopez of the group TLC: "S*ck my d*ck, hoes." We didn't want to come here in the first place, but our guide was hella nice (albeit very young) and really wanted to show this 'club' off to us and we obliged with the hopes of getting a single drink and getting the f*ck out of there. Our group had been backpacking around Europe for two weeks and unfortunately none of us had remembered to bring our slutty ho-garb to be able to match what's apparently the dress-code criteria to enter this place. Actually, that's a lie. The girls they let in here didn't even look all *that* slutty, more-so just caked in make-up and super 'out of it', but either way, they were very vocally deemed better than us by the bouncers. Maybe it was that we were wearing coats? That was one thing all the girls who were let in didn't have. Maybe coats aren't cool here. I mean, it was only about 2 degrees outside so I guess I can see how coats would be a faux pas... NOT. You know what's a real faux pas? F*cking pneumonia, man. We were 'on the list' but they said were too casual, despite our all black and brown attire (same as a v. young girls they let in), and our significant effort to look better than a person who'd been living out of a suitcase for a month, and we were not only turned away by the dickhead doormen at this empty club, but the doorman had the nerve to look at my friends shoes, shake his head, then make the f*cking 'tsk tsk tsk' noise with his mouth. PutaMadre. At least do me the solid of doing it behind my back. WhattaJag. To continue on my rant... First, clubs that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. You think we look too sh*tty for your sh*tty club with a knock off sequined trellis with copyright infringing use of the 'Playboy' logo on it. There needs to be a better word for tacky to the exponential power so I can use it to describe this place... and I would never otherwise do this or even give a shit, but to the bouncers: No one wearing bluetooth headsets circa 1998 and non-slip Skechers has the right to look down on anyone else. So me and my semi-clean button-down and classic Docs that I got for a steal on Amazon.com...well, I don't know where you came from, but where I'm from saving some scratch is hella sexy. Second, we were in total shock with how filthy everything was around this place. Puking in the street, broken glass and sidewalk feces abound, yet they still tried to uphold some sort of decent attire standard. The only thing fitting for this environment is a poncho and pair of galoshes. Third, F*ck this place. Fourth, I watched a group of barely legal, barely-able-to-walk girls wearing next to nothing being hustled in. I can only hope they made it home safely, but I have to question why a club would be so interested in bringing in such extremely young and obviously inebriated-beyond-a-reasonable-level group of young, scantily clad females into the club. Fifth, they said that despite us being 'on the list' and the club being empty, that we couldn't enter for our 'too casual' clothing. As they said this, I watched another impeccably well-dressed gentleman walk up to the door... surely he'll get right in. He's dressed like a million Deutsche marks. NEIN. He was turned away. He was short, not the most-attention grabbing face in the crowd, and the bouncers came up with some other bullsh*t reason to not allow him to enter either, obviously deeming him not attractive enough to be at the club. Little do they know, there's nothing uglier that the sh*t they were pulling as the sh*tty nightclub door-man gestapo of Dusseldorf. Sixth, I'll have you know that I've won second place (and subsequently $10) in many a Monopoly beauty pageant. Seven, I've never felt more akin to Heather Matarazzo as Dawn Wiener in one of my all-time favorite movies, 'Welcome To The Dollhouse', and couldn't put my feelings about this place any better than she did in. Here's lookin' at you, Nachtresidenz: http://media.giphy.com/media/McFUNE2Ff4uOY/giphy.gif

I've been to this club for a few times in the past, but I thought the age range were quite low. And to be honest, the type of music was pretty . not my type.

Reserved a table with a group of friends, which was all fine until they found out that some of the friends weren't white. We were not allowed in, even though we had come all the way from the Netherlands for a bachelor party. We had specifically mentioned that it would be a group of nine guys, and agreed to spend a minimum amount of money as part of the deal. Yet when we showed up, we were told that they couldn't let in a group of guys. Very sad to see that there is still so much racism around.
