ideal, wenn man den Grugapark oder die Messe besuchen will. Frühstück super.
Pros:

Lage nahe am Grugapark und viele Möglichkeiten zum Essen in der Nähe. Wenn man Glück hat, kann man kostenlos an der Strasse parken. Frühstück war super. Es war aber nicht im Preis mit drin, wie es auf Booking angegeben war. Zimmer/Lage zum Hof war schön ruhig

Cons:

Es war sehr warm (keine Klimaanlage), Matraze war durchgelegen. Mitarbeiter waren etwas langsam beim Auffüllen des Frühstücks

Perfect location for Grugahalle events
Pros:

I had a great stay at this hotel. The location is absolutely perfect if you are attending an event at the Grugahalle, as it is just a short walk away. It made my trip so much more convenient and stress-free.
My room was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a pleasant stay. The staff were friendly and efficient, ensuring I felt welcomed from the moment I arrived.
I would definitely stay here again for my next visit to Essen. Highly recommended!

Nothing

Pros:

Für unsere Unternehmungen (Villa Hügel, Margaretenhöhe, Baldeneysee) lag das Hotel optimal. Auch die Nähe zu diversen Restaurants war sehr angenehm. Das angebotene Frühstück war reichhaltig und gut.
