Hotel Das Lola Hotels in Essen

Hotel Das Lola

"We came to stay at this hotel over the weekend and we came for work. Truly we believed it’s not a 4 star. It is a 3 star. Reception is only open from 7am till 3pm. We arrived late, so there was no receptionist, our room was clean but the sink was so blocked that it wasn’t possible to properly use it at all, not even to brush the teeth cause the water would come to the floor. The next day in the morning I went and asked a receptionist to unblock the silk. Seemed like or she didn’t care or she didn’t speak English well. She didn’t even say she’s sorry that in a 4 star hotel the water comes on the floor if we use a sink. After we left to work all day and when we came back in the evening - nothing was fixed. Sink is the same very much blocked and receptionist is gone. I’d not recommend and not come back. Had to brush my teeth with a water bootle. Also there is only one pillow and house keeping just turned off the heating so it’s freezing cold when we come back, instead of giving fresh towels, bath mat (they forgot once again to give us a bath mat) or toilet paper. Honestly this hotel is not worth the money at all."

Hotel Bredeney Hotels in Essen

"I stayed at this hotel for a business trip to Düsseldorf. Although it is located slightly on the outskirts, it is an excellent hotel for the price. It is also close to the highway, so I think it is the best hotel for those using a rental car. The breakfast is also superb."

Mintrops Land Hotel Burgaltendorf Hotels in Essen

Mintrops Land Hotel Burgaltendorf

"Lovely and guest oriented hotel in green area This hotel lies in the greener outskirt of Essen, ideal for cycling trips or to visit tne Ruhrgebiet without the rush of a city centre. We had a very comfortable stay. There is a lot of eye for detail in this hotel. For example: we had two racebikes with us which we could park securely in a special and fully equipped bikegarage. The breakfast was well organised and the restaurant is a recommendation for lunch and dinner. Last but not least the personnel is really guest focussed. Only attention point; there is no AC in the room so I suppose there room could get really hot in summer."

Hotel Haus Gimken Hotels in Essen

Hotel Haus Gimken

"A nice, clean, quiet hotel, more than adequate for our needs. We did not use the offered breakfast; it looked basic. Hotel restaurant was busy each of the evenings we stayed, but since we were visiting family, we didn’t eat in the restaurant. Room was average size by European standards, bathroom was roomy. Amenities were mixed: nice bathrobes but soaps were minimal and no shampoo was offered. Hotel is about a 10-15 minute walk two different tram or S Bahn stop and in a nice neighborhood. I would stay there again."

"It is one stop away from the main train station. The guy at the front desk was warm and thoughtful. He let me check in early. The breakfast was a little less, but I was very satisfied with everything else."

Spark by Hilton Essen City Centre ★★★★
"Superb location next to the main train station, and a short walk to loads of shops and restaurants. Parking was easy enough at the back of the hotel. Reception staff were friendly and helpful. Room was fine, as you would expect really. En-suite was good, modern and the shower was good. I would definitely stay again if visiting Essen."

Atlantic Congress Hotel Essen ★★★★
"The location is excellent. The room is large and well-equipped. The only drawback is that the sound insulation is not very good. I was woken up by the sound of the door closing next door in the morning and the floor felt a little shaken."
