2 nights spent in this hotel for a fair at the Essen mass.Spacious room, clean, and very quiet, good bedding.The breakfast is very decent, and the restaurant is very good and not too expensive!The bus is 200 m away, around 25 minutes to get to Messe if you don't prefer to take the car.The hotel is very good value for money.

The hotel is located in a suburb of Essen directly on a narrow street. There is a parking lot behind the hotel, but it can quickly fill up in the evening. Hotel guests are mostly business travelers and guests of family celebrations. The hotel restaurant is very popular, reservations are recommended because you can eat well and inexpensively here, and the portions won't leave you hungry. The upper rooms are only accessible via stairs. The rooms are simply and practically furnished. There is a fridge, good for diabetics, and an in-room safe, but the beds could be a bit more comfortable. The breakfast is varied and is replenished if necessary,All in all, a recommendable hotel in a quiet peripheral location and good cuisine.

Good room and breakfast but the downside on the ground floor are the rooms without insect nets and the mosquitoes are still there...

We only ate there and it was very tasty. For someone who doesn't eat that much, the small portions are quite large. Unfortunately, many dishes with milk...If you are lactose intolerant, you won't find many dishes.

Uncomplicated check-in, very nice staff, room size very good. The restaurant was excellent. The breakfast was also very good. Unfortunately, there were a lot of black hairs on the floor in our bathroom and a bedside table was broken or the glass top was completely missing. That's why there is a star deduction. The price-performance ratio is very good.
