The room was huge ( i booked the 29sq m double one ) , It was very clean and comfort. No noise ( with closed windows ) and the temperature inside the room great . The location was excellent as it is in front ( 100m ) of the Essen main station and our transportation rides were super easy . A plus that at the station there are shops as dm , supermarket and many cafe - breakfast stores. Very friendly staff.

It was super clean and the decor is absolutely stunning. Perfect for metal and rock fans with a metal café right underneath the room. You can hear the music in the master bedroom when you open the window but if you close it it's fine. And they provide earplugs in every room. Everything was super clean and there was enough toilet paper and stuff like that. Just 100% the best place I've ever stayed at.

I recently visited Essen, and it was an amazing experience. The city blends modern architecture with rich history, and I loved exploring its' cultural landmarks, like the Zollverein Coal Mine industrial complex. The food scene is fantastic, with plenty of delicious local options. Public transportation is efficient, making it easy to get around. Essen is a perfect mix of industrial charm and contemporary flair. Highly recommend it

Essen is my family's hometown.

Essen is my family's hometown. I've known Essen since I was a child. It's not a particularly touristy city, but it has interesting attractions, one of which is the Golden Madonna – the oldest sculpture of Our Lady in the world. It can be seen in the Cathedral of Our Lady of Cosmas and Damian. There are many places to visit with a lot of history and many places to relax, such as Gruga Park.

A stroll through the city center is certainly appealing during the day. However, the overabundance of Asian shops is striking. A visit to the cathedral or the Folkwang Museum is interesting. A trip to the theater is also worthwhile.

Perfect for a day trip to Movie World (about a 30-minute drive). Parking costs around 15 euros per day and is free on Sundays in Essen. There are good restaurants and a large indoor shopping mall. We didn't find much else to do in Essen, but it's a good base for theme parks and the Düsseldorf Sea Aquarium, which is also fun for kids!

I haven't seen much of Essen; I remember it a little from my time at the KVR (Citizen Service Center). It's not a great city, though. Since I've lived in Bonn for 30 years now, it's pretty difficult for Essen to fulfill my wishes anyway. But that's the case with almost all cities in the Ruhr area. I studied in Bochum, and Bochum is just a shadow of its former self.
