Modern and innovative appearance, albeit with a classic and simple style. We had a very good time. The home automation system for accessing the hotel and rooms if you arrive late is excellent.

Modern large rooms. Parking not possible on site. Possible in the nearby parking garage for €15. I found the completely keyless entry excessive. The app only gives you access to the grounds, the hotel and your room. Everything is very complicated for me. Breakfast OK.

The hotel was extensively renovated in February 2024. Large, even handicapped accessible rooms (wide doors, handles in the bathroom). Everything “lean & clean”. I slept so well there that I briefly considered stealing the excellent mattress.😉 Very nice staff, they make every effort to fulfill the guests' wishes. Good breakfast! Convenient location. E-charging station within walking distance. Parking can sometimes be critical if you don't use the garage. A suitcase bench would be useful.

The hotel is a small positive surprise.Very clean, spacious and modern rooms.It seems very age and disabled friendly.The breakfast is solid, the scrambled eggs are good to eat, the coffee is drinkable. Instead of a minibar, there is a self-service refrigerator with cold drinks next to the reception.Only the parking situation is difficult. The parking lot near the hotel is only available with a parking ticket (max. 2 hours holding time!).Otherwise direct connection to the Essen-Steele S train station.Small minus: The pillows are too big and too full. ;)

Nice city hotel. Apparently set up in a former retirement home. This ensures spacious bathrooms and hallways. Otherwise, the room is simple and functional, but not uncomfortable. With good closet size.Classic hotel breakfast.Unfortunately there are no hotel parking spaces. Even a parking garage listed as a cooperation is not open 24/7 and not at all on Sundays.The location at a public transport hub is of course very convenient.Overall a good 4!

There is nothing wrong with the hotel, clean and nice staff.Breakfast was simple and could have been refilled more often.Minus, because the hotel doesn't have its own parking lot and you can only use the parking garage (which is advertised) if you don't want to leave on Sundays, as it's closed then...

This hotel is very neat and well maintained. Decor is not fashionable but very practical. Very spacious rooms and very friendly service. Parking in garage around the corner with discount card from hotel. …
