Top Ruhr Museum Hotel Reviews

Essener Hof Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western

10/10 Excellent

"Cleanliness & staff + Location"

McDreams Hotel Essen-City

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a budget hotel, but it’s done well. Everything works as intended, I didn’t have to contact anyone during my entire stay, it was clean, minimalistic, and offered exactly what it should; a cheap and reliable place to stay. The whole process from check in to check out is handled remotely, there is no reception desk or staff physically on hand, but everything worked perfectly fine and I found it to be a seamless experience. I would recommend this place to anyone who needs an affordable and reliable place to stay for a few nights, also, there’s a good grocery store on the doorstep of the building."

Premier Inn Essen City Limbecker Platz

10/10 Excellent

"Had a wonderful stay here. Even though we had the misfortune to book when thelocal club was having a big event so the where alot of younger people in the hotel making noise. The staff where very helpful and offered to move us to a quieter part of the hotel. This was very much appreciated. Would recommend this hotel for the area."

Ramada by Wyndham Essen

4/10 Poor

"the breakfast was not special. There was a lot of noise a group of children ran early in the mornings at 7:00 and then at night until 01:00 in the corridor and screamed and made a lot of anarchy. I spoke to the staff at the reception one morning and complained but he was inconsiderate and replied that the rules in Germany are between 22:00 and 06:00 people can move freely and I replied in their homes but not in the hotels where you pay for your stay to have peace and quiet. and later during the night at 01:00 when it was so noisy I spoke to another person at the reception who was more understanding and he followed up with me and spoke to the person in charge of the children.As for the blankets they were so small that it barely fits for small children we were almost uncovered during the nights and you could not get heat from the elements which was bad. unfortunately the service was worse now than before."
