Beautiful building at great location. My single room had a very decent sized twin bed. Although the hotel is next to the train station, I heard no noise at any moment of my stay. The gym room is basic, but it offers alternatives for a total body workout.

Hotel Essener Hof is very close to the Essen rail station. It has historic charm, with some drawbacks. Many rooms have no air conditioning - you must make a special request for an air-conditioned room, after booking on a third party site. Many rooms are on hallways that have steps to climb from the lift. Staff are friendly and helpful. The bar and restaurant are closed; breakfast is a buffet with many traditional German food choices.

Liked: Room comfort

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.

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
