"Booked two rooms: one double twin room and one family room. The family room's top bunk bed was full of tiny hairs. The family room's bathroom also smelled like sewer when we went in. Not all staff were helpful.When I told them about smell they acted like they didn't understand it. I just didn't have any choice nearby. The Holiday Inn was sold out, and this property is the closest one to a wedding I had to attend."

Top Ekel Hotel Reviews

Hotel Bredeney

10/10 Excellent

"All good. Hotel for events."

Mercure Hotel Bochum City

8/10 Good

"The room was a good size and clean. Wi-Fi worked well. The bath towels were really old and one was even tattered. Our TV didn’t work and when we called the desk for help, he informed us there was nothing he could do and they would fix it in the morning - well, we left in the morning - thank you anyway. Breakfast was good - it was pretty picked over and sparse when we arrived at 8:20 am. The coffee machine was Not working and when it finally did work, the quality of the coffee was very poor. As we were leaving the breakfast room, they replenished the hot items. Best thing about this hotel was its proximity to the train station."
