Dear Dan,
Thank you for sharing your experience. I'm happy to read you had a good stay wiith us. My apologies we could not arrange your room service. We look forward to welcoming you again soon! Kind regards Marieke Riewald - General Manager
Arriving at the hotel in Hengelo was a pleasant surprise. It was only a short walk away from the railway station. The room we had was of a very high standard, in terms of its cleanliness, facilities and comfort.
The hotel was quiet and offered an excellent buuffet style breakfast. It was a pity an evening meal wasn't available.
Apart from the lack of the latter, I can't fault this hotel.

Dear Timothy, thank you for sharing your experience with our hotel. I'm very happy to read you had such a good stay with us. I will share your compliments with the staff. The kitchen was closed for dinner because of the Summer Holiday, luckily our chef returned and we serve dinner again from Monday till Thursday. We look forward to welcoming you again. Kind regards Marieke Riewald - General Manager
Hotel location is very convenient. Only two minutes walk from the Hengelo Central Station. Staff is very cooperative and kind. Rooms are quite spacious and comfortable. Wifi signals in the room are a little weak but still works.
Although the hotel is good, comfortable,friendly & handy for the town, it was let down by the fact that the restaurant is not open on Thursday,Friday or Saturday evening!!!
Stayed two nights on business trip along with two colleagues. Delightfully convenient to Railway Station , shops, Wednesday market and business partner’s offices. Staff helpful courteous and breakfast offers good choices. This was my fourth stay in two years. Wouldn’t want to stay anywhere else. Plan to be back in October

Parking sucks no place to unload luggage must park in city garage witch cost 9 euro a day not disclosed also when you have to park in garage you must take your luggage from garage to hotel because there's no place to park your car out front breakfast is way to expensive 16 euro for a typical German breakfast witch is usually included in your stay NOT THERE

Dear guest, thank you for your sharing your experiences with our hotel. My apologies for the inconviences you experienced regarding parking and breakfast.
Unfortunately we do not have our own parking space, but our guests can always unload and load their luggage in front of the hotel. That is never a problem. I'm sorry you experienced otherwise. Regarding breakfast we allways offer rates including and excluding breakfast. We prefer to give our guest a choice, because not everyone takes breakfast. I'm sorry this was not clear to you.
Kind regards Marieke Dooren - General Manager
Good but do NOT buy breakfast: no staff members check room numbers or any other form of verification to see who has bought breakfast and who hasn't, meaning anyone can walk in regardless of whether or not they paid. They then refused to give me a refund. This is, effectively, stealing money.

Dear guest,
Thank you for your review.
I'm sorry you have the feeling we do not do our job with the right intentions, because we do not ask for a room number when guests arrive at the restaurant for breakfast. We work with a small team and our receptionists work closely with the restaurant staff, so we see the guests who have breakfast. We just work in a different way then most of the hotels and more important on a base of trust.
If a guest books a rate excluding breakfast and he or she did not have breakfast we of course do not charge breakfast. If a guest books a rate including breakfast as your self, we do not refund breakfast, because breakfast was booked with a discount.
Kind regards Marieke Dooren - General Manager
Good location close to train, restaurants, bears, bars. Definitely a nice hotel, clean, and free coffee in the lobby.

We picked this location based upon its proximity to our family in NL. We didn't really understand how close it was to the Hengelo city and streets which turned out to be an awesome blessing. We were able to walk to all kinds of locations for food and coffee. If Hengelo is a destination, this is a nice place to anchor from. When we decided to take the train to Amsterdam for the day, the walk to Hengelo Centraal was surprising short.

I stayed at City Hotel twice and had an excellent stay! Staff was warm, receptive and very helpful! The room was very nice and had a large bathroom (a plus for me)! It was so nice that I have designated this my hotel when I'm staying in the area!
