Comfortable stay for Schalke Concert

Stayed in the hotel for a concert at Gilsenkirchen. The hotel’s own gated parking was very convenient, the room was quiet and very comfortable. In particular, staff on reception were very helpful and made our group feel very welcome. Would happily recommend for anyone looking for somewhere to stay within easy reach of Schalke stadium.

Quick stop over travelling through Germany. Hotel was cheap and good quality. Small complaint that there was fruit peel under the bed. I stood in it. Other than that super convenient and fast. All we wanted.

The hotel felt fresh and new throughout. The rooms are well equipped with a fridge, safe and plenty of storage space. The bed was comfortable and I slept well. The bathroom was also new and fitted to a high standard. The reception and bar area were both clean and spacious with a small shop with snacks to buy. The breakfast was a self-service arrangement with a good choice of healthy options. I would highly recommend this hotel and would definitely book it again if I was visiting Essen.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We booked two nights at an exceptional price (so that may affect our opinion). Reception was professional and polite. At the entry there was usually free water and occasionally pieces of fruit or sweets. The room was light and airy with a fairly comfortable bed. Sound proofing was good and the light blocking curtains were mostly effective. There was a desk, with a worn out chair, so working from the room is possible, though perhaps not the most comfortable. Cleanliness was fine though when we moved the floor lamp there was a lot of dust and dirt underneath, and there was also dust in top of the lamp and in other parts of the room. Our room came with a kettle, tea, coffee, glasses and a small fridge. The shower was good with a range of soap, conditioner and shampoo but the silicon sealant was worn out, which meant that water would flood onto the floor. During our stay there was a fire alarm early Sunday morning and following the incident no information was given to guests as to why this happened - some proactive communications would have been appreciated. Generally the hotel was clean and comfortable though there were signs of wear and tear that detracted from this. The hotel is well located, close to a transport hub and within the town centre. We were happy with our two night stay and were we to stay in Essen again would reconsider staying here, assuming a similar price point.
