In addition, the train was on time. It was also very clean on board, which also applies to the toilets.

FullMy train journey from Düsseldorf to Hanover was really great overall and I would like to share my impressions. The best thing about this trip was definitely the punctuality and reliability of the train.
The train left Düsseldorf exactly on time and arrived in Hanover on time as well. This made planning the trip really easy and avoided stress.
However, there was one small downer: the train was quite full. This meant that it got a bit cramped, especially during rush hour. Nevertheless, the positive aspects of the trip far outweighed this small drawback.
Overall, my train journey from Düsseldorf to Hanover was really pleasant. The punctuality and reliability of the train make this connection a really good option for travellers between these cities. It might be a good idea to book your tickets in advance to avoid full occupancy.

Possibly the priceThe connecting journey on the ICE from Düsseldorf to Hanover was also an extremely positive example of a journey on Deutsche Bahn. The low passenger density was particularly noticeable here, which made for an extremely pleasant atmosphere. Throughout the entire journey, the facilities both at the seats and in the train in general, such as the on-board facilities and toilets, were in excellent condition. The only point of criticism could possibly be the price, but in my opinion this is completely justified for the service provided.
