Location is perfect for those who search for quiet area. The window in our apartment looked out onto the courtyard which is very nice, green and quiet. The area of the city Rüttenscheid where the hotel is located is very cozy, comfortable, quiet and clean neighborhood. The apartment was great. Everything was clean and comfortable. It's very fresh as well.

The botanical garden of Grugapark has a host of plants and flora, whilst Essen’s historical past is on show through landmarks such as Basilica St Ludgerus, Alte Kirche and the Old Synagogue Essen.

The main shopping area is based around Kettwiger Strasse, within the vicinity is Essen’s medieval Dom containing several priceless collections of artwork. Museum Folkwang features 19th and 20th-century art and several cafés, bars and restaurants line the city’s streets.

In summer you can swim, windsurf, take a boat ride or enjoy a picnic on the banks of Lake Baldeney and the Baldeneysee Seaside Beach. Essen has ice-skating rinks in some areas during winter. Movie Park Germany is also a popular attraction.

Great exhibition halls at Messe Essen, for annual classic car show. Shopping is good with large shopping centre in town. Lots of restuarants and eating places. Dusseldorf within travelling distance and airport easily reached.

We visited the Zollverein UNECSO.

We visited the Zollverein UNECSO. You could easily spend a full day discovery everything. The city is wonderful. Very green. Food portions are big. Great value for money. The Villa Hügel was very interesting. Unfortunately too little to view without a tour which only occurs on certain days / weekends.

Unfortunately, due to the horrible accommodation, I left Essen too soon. but I give a plus for: Zollverein Coal Mine Industrial Complex Red Dot Design Museum And I give a Minus for the unkempt appearance and the mess in some public areas.

The Folkwang Museum, one of the major museums in North-Rhine...

The Folkwang Museum, one of the major museums in North-Rhine-Westphalia, is already worth a trip to Essen and will occupy you for half a day. Besides current exhibitions it has 24 large rooms with a permanent exhibition on modern art that can be accessed free of charge. Also worth visiting is the Zeche-Zollverein industrial museum and the Alte Synagogue museum and commemoration centre, only 10 minutes away from the main station. Essen also has many restaurants and is one of the main shopping destinations in the region. In winter, there is a large Christmas market and in January/February the Wintertraum Essen, a large open air ice rink with food outlets.

Essen is not a touristic city and there's not a lot to see around. One can visit the museum of the region which is good, and the Christmas Market -other than that I don't think it's a place to come back.

The room was exquisitely furnished with a huge bed, clean bathroom with bathtub and tea/ coffee amenities. I loved the timeless brick red and white colour theme inside the hotel. Breakfast was also sumptuous. The hotel is 10-15 min walk from Essen Hbf and in close vicinity to exotic food courts and shopping centres.

Hotel is maintained is well maintained. Staff is friendly, very helpfull. The Hotel is not far from the town centre, but in a quiet spot, so you can have a good rest. Essen does have a excellent public transport system, so it is easy to get from the hotel to town centre with public transport.
