The location is fantastic. The staff was very friendly and helpful as well.

Alp Germany

Room was normal Motel One. Location very good in centre of Essen for shopping and access to public transport. Staff excellent. Breakfast so nice after lockdown! Excellent value.

Richard Germany

The quiet, the sheets were clean and the room was clean too.

Sanam Switzerland

The breakfast was really good! Everything is organic, mainly from Anatura, a very famous German BIO brand. The staff were friendly and willing to help.

Aether Germany

Everything 😊 The staff was super friendly, the hotel is very clean and modern. Also what was so great was that the location is in the middle of the city but we could barely hear anything from our room. It was super peaceful and very comfortable.

Angie Germany

The staff was very friendly and the Hotel is situated directly at the Kennyplatz which is in the heart of the pedestrian area of Essen where there are loads of Cafe's restaurants and a big shopping area.

Kath United Kingdom

I love this hotel! Location is perfect. Close to all shops& restaurants. Parking is right across the hotel. For approx. 28 hours we paid a parking fee of €28,00. The hotelrooms are comfortable! Nice bed with 2 pillows each. It is clean, it comes with a TV. Daek curtains. The bathroom is quite small, but this did not bother me. There is a hairdryer, showergel, big towels and a great shower! The breakfast is only €10,50 per person. It is not huge, but more then enough to choose from: bread, rolls, 2 different juices, coffee specialties, eggs, yoghurt, cheese and sweet pastries. Last bit not least: the staff is really kind, friendly and ready to help!! Price is friendly. I highly recommended this hotel!

C Netherlands

Lovely bar located in the hotel. Rooms clean. Good central location about 10min walk from the main train station. Didn’t have breakfast in the hotel but plenty of nearby cafes/bakery shops.

Laura United Kingdom

Simple, but adequate rooms. Breakfast is minimal, but not badly priced.

Dominique Netherlands

Amazing location right in the center. Staff was exceptionally quiet and discrete.
