We were in Gelsenkirchen for the Taylor Swift concert and couldn't have had a better hotel. Apart from the small details (e.g. Taylor's music was played throughout the stay), the important things were also good (e.g. very clean rooms). The staff was absolutely phenomenal, as soon as we arrived we were given a coffee (which was urgently needed after a long journey) and we were provided with water for the concert and also received great directions. Everything went smoothly and couldn't have been better. The breakfast the next day was also great and all the employees always made sure that we felt comfortable. We can only warmly recommend the hotel to anyone who wants/needs to stay overnight in Gelsenkirchen for a concert or another event.

I'm giving one star because it was 90 degrees outside and the air conditioner in our room was broken. I booked the room over 6 months ahead, when we knew we would be here for the Euro match. I was careful to only select a hotel with air conditioning. The staff member brought us a fan when we told him of the problem, but it didn't help much. I couldn't sleep well at all. I suggest that when rooms are being cleaned and prepared for the next guest, they should test the air conditioner to be sure it works, or offer to move guests to another room.
