Hotel Ambassador Essen
7.9 (94 reviews)

Hotel Ambassador Essen ★★★

📍 Viehofer Str. 22, Stadtbezirke I, 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 ★★★★★

📍 August-Thyssen-Straße 51, Stadtbezirke IX, Essen

"Best rum steak ever eaten - good atmosphere - very friendly service - the menu is unusual - the food is worth the money - we will be back - asparagus season is already very good in March - good champagne - attentive but not intrusive."

Spark by Hilton Essen City Centre
8.4 (55 reviews)

Spark by Hilton Essen City Centre ★★★★

📍 Hachestraße 10, Stadtbezirke I, Essen

"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..."

Hotel Essener Hof, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western ★★★★

📍 Am Handelshof 5, Stadtbezirke I, Essen

"It was clean, renovated, and dog-friendly. The location wasn't ideal for dogs, but that's typical for centrally located places. Very flexible and a very, very nice room. I'd gladly stay again."

Ramada by Wyndham Essen ★★★★

📍 Schützenbahn 58, Stadtbezirke I, Essen

"Great hotel, convenient parking and charging."

B&B HOTEL Essen-City
8.6 (42 reviews)

B&B HOTEL Essen-City ★★

📍 Helmut-Käutner-Straße 4, Stadtbezirke I, Essen

"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."

Hotel Ambassador Essen ★★★
"Ants on the furniture in the room. Breakfast: when we arrived the scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon and milk were already out. And they didn't plan to refill. We arrived 1:30h before breakfast would close."

Schlosshotel Hugenpoet ★★★★★
"We had ordered breakfast for our birthday party of 4 people. But we were served ONE breakfast (a tiered stand with small individual appetizers, one of each type) and we were told that we could order more if that wasn't enough. This meant that every item on the tiered stand automatically became a polite gesture because no one wanted to eat the others' food. Despite our doubts being expressed several times, we stayed that way. We were actually billed for 4 breakfasts at EUR 36.00 each. The mood was completely ruined, and many people still consider "ordering more" to be inappropriate. This is exactly how they make money here. If I pay for four breakfasts, I want to get four breakfasts."

"It was just for relaxation, but the annoying thing was the TV kept turning off and the AC didn't work. Well, maybe that was just for that day."

"The location is excellent. The room is large and well-equipped. The only drawback is that the sound insulation is not very good. I was woken up by the sound of the door closing next door in the morning and the floor felt a little shaken."
