“Great location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 February 2011

This hotel was booked by the organisation I work for. Hotel very well situated for a business trip, since you're just on face of the main train station. The hotel is very professional, room was spacious and confortable, excellent breakfast. Internet available at the entrance, with a long queue and at the rooms you have to pay extra. Only minus is there's lots of people around at all times and staff can be a bit cold because of all the stress. However, they do the effort to treat you kindly and there isn't much more you can ask.
There was tea, apples, coffee at the reception but generally it was unavailable (ran out of hot water, no more apples, that sort of thing) which gets to be a bit silly because you expect to go downstairs to get a cup of tea and there's nothing... but I didn't really mind, most important was a good night sleep, quiet and safe, pleasant staff and excellent breakfast. A good choice if you are on a business trip.

“Good central location, but with this comes the noise!”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2011

I stayed here for 1 night on a business trip, when I couldn't get into the Sheraton Essen (as it was full).

Good central location for Essen - very close to shops, restaurants etc. and is opposite the train station.

Room was average - had the usual facilities, but felt a bit dated. The room I was in was overlooking the main street and train station - quite noisy, so sleep quality wasn't the best.

Breakfast was not bad - good selection, fast service, but the waitress I had was a bit miserable.

It was ok for a business trip, but I would rather stay in the Sheraton or Mercure if given the choice.

“Good hotel in an optimal location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2011

The hotel is in a very central location, just in from of the central station and the city centre. The room were clean and comfortable, although the furniture was not very modern. The service and the restaurant were very fine.
