📍 Viehofer Str. 22, Stadtbezirke I, Essen

"No any tea, coffee and mug inside the room; the reception lady is quite cold to refuse to check in at 12:00 inspite I discussed with her politely, just repeated to check at 15:00 ; the worst thing is I cant park my car inside the hotel garage or parking lots, but in the public one, then I need walk 10 minutes to take my heavy luggages...

Holiday Inn - the niu, COBBLES ESSEN by IHG Hotels in Essen

Holiday Inn - the niu, COBBLES ESSEN by IHG

"Unfortunately, the hotel's location is disappointing. It is situated in a neighborhood with little to do: hardly any restaurants, no atmosphere, and generally a rather dull environment. For couples looking for a cozy or romantic trip, this is absolutely not recommended. Parking is also a problem. Only about six parking spaces are available in front of the hotel, and the hotel charges €15 per night for this. This feels unreasonable, especially since you can park for free on the street next door. Parking on weekdays will likely be a challenge, given that many businesses are located in the area. The early morning breakfast is fine in itself in terms of selection, but the hot dishes were not at the right temperature. This led to stomach upset and diarrhea later in the day, which is naturally unacceptable for a hotel breakfast. Additionally, the hotel bar was closed on Saturday evening, which again contributes to the feeling that there are few facilities and that the hotel does not cater to weekend guests. All in all, this hotel offers insufficient comfort, atmosphere, and amenities. I would not recommend this hotel to couples or to guests who expect a lively environment and good service."

"Good attention and good breakfast too. A little bit old in my opinion but would go again if possible. Soft bed and pillows . Lucky to have a refrigerator. Did not the bathroom, kind of old and dark. Internet was fine. Stairs on corridor made difficult to go with a heavy luggage ."

Hotel Ambassador Essen ★★★
"1. You could end up sleeping in the building on the other side of the main hotel. It has only disadvantages. The BIGGEST is that they don't tell you there is no elevator, and the rooms are accessible via a steep staircase that goes up 4 floors (8 flights of steps); that's a massive NO NO with luggage or for less fit people. OF COURSE they don't tell you this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! a) no staff; b) no phone to call reception; c) no control at all, so the guests who are loud (in my case, the whole floor was having a party until I shouted at the noise-makers to stop, as the hotel did nothing to stop it after calling them (the receptionist barely could speak any language I could communicate with) d) when it's raining, you have to run across in the cold and rain. 2. Breakfast ok but not the best coffee; in fact, it tastes like coffee from the 1970s and probably on a good morning from the 1980s when the film "Back to the Future " was made! 3. Wi-Fi did not work - 50% on and 50% off. But don't worry its normal in Germany to have bad wifi. By the way, my personal footnote: Good luck with Essen, a horrible place and very unsafe when it gets dark; don't bother going out. A horror film awaits outside the hotel. Well done, Germany for destroying the safe country you once had."

Schlosshotel Hugenpoet ★★★★★
"Not a lot that is wrong here. Beautiful location, good staff, large rooms with all amenities, great bed, good wifi. Large parking, no charging for electric cars on site. Great breakfast, partially made to order. Two restaurants on site, a bistro and a fine dining restaurant. Bistro was good, not exceptional, but maybe this was because we had a set menu. Fine dining, much better, but ridiculously expensive wines, as well as all other drinks at the bar. I still give it 5 stars but selling a bottle of $20 euro for nearly $100 is not ok."

Spark by Hilton Essen City Centre ★★★★
"Complaint immediately after entering the assigned room: strong smell of feces from the bathroom. Despite cleaning it twice, the smell did not go away because apparently a drain pipe in the bathroom was leaking. However, the hotel had already known about the problem!! It was no longer possible to change the room due to lack of time..."

Garner Hotel ESSEN - HANDELSHOF by IHG ★★★★
"The hotel is just in front of the train station, which is very convenient to travel around. This trip aims for the Christmas market and it is just behind the hotel. The staff not really friendly, but i appreciated they waived the charges, which should be charged to me. Overall pretty satisfied with the hotel."

B&B HOTEL Essen-City ★★
"Unfortunately, I had a bad experience with this hotel. I was under the impression that their hotel cost 65 euros per night. Unfortunately, upon arrival, it turned out that we had to pay 95 euros. If the facilities were in order, I would have accepted that. However, it turned out that the hot water did not work during our entire stay. Additionally, there was no possibility for breakfast that morning. I made several attempts to contact the hotel. After a few attempts, I received a response. The option offered was a refund of 9 euros. I found this to be very inadequate. I am dissatisfied with my experience at the hotel, as well as with how complaints are handled afterward."
