Nice hotel with a couple of problems

A nice hotel in a quiet corner of central Essen, very handy for the train station and central shopping areas. The room was large and comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. There was a problem with a leaking extractor fan in the bathroom and no way to fix it over the weekend but they did provide a bucket when I asked as the floor was very wet. The high tech shower completely defeated me. They had left the full maintenance manual in the hotel room for guests to peruse (and who doesn’t love a maintenance manual when on holiday) but I still overlooked the essential switch on the sink that was needed to activate the shower (silly of me not to guess but there was no obvious sign). A pity also that nobody pointed out that only one of the two lifts gets to the fifth floor. Overall: a nice and clean hotel that just needs to up its game a little.

Excellent choice for staying in Essen

This hotel is very close to the main train station of Essen, just across the main entrance. The hotel is fully renovated, very nice standards and features with full service restaurant on site and sale of snacks and beverages at the reception for late arrivals. Very clean premises, friendly you staff, no smoke-filled corners. Yes parking available around the hotel , public spaces, however fee-based at certain times of the day, free at night until 8am. Staff is international, good English speakers seem to be always on the premise, too. Huge internet driven flat TV in the rooms, very calm, well lit floors, with room key secures elevator. Conference & meeting rooms avaible as I noticed. The surrounding area is part of the main shopping area with plenty of great offerings and opportunities to get stuff. At night the entrance is well lit, just beware, German train station areas do attack pan handlers, too. Security is not bad, but as in every major city around the world, better watch out. Overall I really enjoyed my stay at this very homey place, as every function I needed (internet, calmness, clean spaces, hot water etc) was top notch as promised.

We booked a last minute room to attend Spiel Messe. We came with our small child. I called and requested a crib in the room. We arrived early on the day of check in. We planned to leave our luggage, but they room was ready! We got in and the crib was already there. And the room was big. Perfect for our small family. The breakfast was excellent. They provided a high chair for my our child. Lots of variety and it tasted fresh. The warm food, was warm! Will definitely recommend to friends for next time. Oh and super easy to access from the main train station.

Es war eines der schlechteren Hotels in den ich übernachtet habe. Von außen macht es einen guten Eindruck, die Enttäuschung kam dann als wir unser Zimmer aufgeschlossen haben. Der Weg dahin war schon nicht vertrauenserweckend . Wir mussten in die erste Etage hoch dann durch den Notausgang raus in ein Treppenhaus der wohl ursprünglich nicht für Gäste gedacht war. Im Zimmer dann war die Laune endgültig getrübt. Gebucht hatte ich ein Apartment für 2 Erwachsene und 2 Kinder. Mit Wohn und Schlafzimmer, und einem Sofa in Queensize Größe als Schlafplatz für die Kinder. Als wir nun in unser Zimmer rein kamen stand sofort an der Tür ein Klappbett und am Fußende dessen ein zweites, quasi als L. Und zwischen den Betten war eine lücke von ca 20 cm zum durchgehen in unser Schlafzimmer. Mein Mann ist gehbehindert, daher war es nicht einfach. Dazu war eins der Klappbetten nicht mehr in Ordnung so das das Fußende bei Belastung abstürze und am Boden lag. Das habe ich noch in keinem anderen Hotel erlebt. Das Zimmer war aber sehr sauber. Und das Frühstück gut und reichhaltig. Es ging bis 10.30 und es wurde auch bis zum Schluss nachgefüllt. Personal war sehr hilfsbereit
