Breakfast was excellent, with high quality foods and lots of different items to choose from. The family room we were given was spacious and offered a small divider to separate our space from that of our children. The location of the hotel is excellent; it's very near the Essen Central Railway station (walking distance), very near a Metro Station and it's walking distance from the Messe Essen (1,6km). Also, within very easy walking distance, there is a street parallel to the one the hotel is situated on, which offers a wide range of restaurants and shops. The staff was very friendly, spoke fluent English and everything was very easy for us.

The hotel was spotless and the staff were very friendly and helpful
The hotel didn't have a swimming pool as advertised on it's website very disappointing. We went for Essen spiel and the bar and side room was packed full. But there was only 2 staff on so we were waiting for ages for drinks. Not the staffs problem they were fantastic they needed help

The breakfast was delicious and the staff at breakfast were charming and hard working. The location is fantastic- so close to the Essen Philharmonie, the main train station, all forms of public transport, restaurants and the Messe /Grugapark. The 24 hour reception is great, the bar staff are super and so is the bar food. The rooms are fabulous and so helpful to have a small fridge.
It is nice to have a fancy coffee machine in the room but I would prefer to have a tea tray with a kettle and instant coffee and tea.

We were there for the Spiel, they let you use the breakfast area later during the day to play your games. Room was spacious and comfortable. Very nice and clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
I guess the only thing that comes to mind is that the TV couldn't go on YouTube.

Did not use the breakfast, so I can't say much about it. I have used it previuos years and it was good.
I think most things are great, but I'd love if you could have one or two more items on the menu. Some sandwiches perhaps, or some noodle dish that is easy to heat in the oven (lasagna etc). Also, some more snack options like potato crisps would be great.

Nice staff, location, clean room, quiet hotel.
Door lock broke, could only be opened with hotel master key. Nobody's fault, of course, only an only lock, I suppose.

We have been on the road for several weeks in England and Germany. This hotel was well above all the other hotels we stayed in. We really appreciated the room service that cleaned our room during our absence during the day. Also, we appreciated that we could extend our stay for a day without having to pay a higher rate.

The staff at this hotel was very friendly, staff speaks fluent English and German and gave us a warm welcome. There's a bar with a terrace where you can order tasty cocktails at a fair price and the bartender was great. The location of the hotel is close to Grugahalle Essen where we went to a concert, and the club in the city centre we visited later. By taxi it only takes you a couple of minutes to go to either place or you can take a walk of about 20 minutes. The room was clean and spacious with a big television, capsule coffee machine (with coffee and black tea capsules), a bluetooth speaker and airconditioning. There's a parking garage right next to/under the hotel. There are soap, shampoo and body lotion dispensers in the bathroom so that's a great alternative for the single use mini toiletries. I would definitely recommend staying at this hotel.
The only negative about our stay is the shower in our room. When we got back home after a night out at around 4AM the shower and the sink faucet only ran scorching hot water and would just not get colder. Since it was late and we were tired we didn't contact the front desk. In the morning the water was okay again but we couldn't get the shower to continue running from the shower head (it kept changing back to the bath faucet) because the switch didn't seem to work properly. I highly doubt this is something that happens often though so I wouldn't worry about it ;) (Not necessarily a bad thing but a note for people with allergies: there is slightly fluffy carpet in the room. I do have to say it was vacuumed well since I have allergies but it didn't bother me during my stay.)
