Hotel Das Lola

Ruettenscheid, 7.9 km from Ruhr Museum

"The hotel seems to have had a recent make over and a re-brand. The room was immaculately clean and the bathroom looked new and was also very good. My only criticism is the lack of amenities; if you want a kettle or iron you need to go to a store cupboard on the ground floor to get it yourself and there is no fridge in the room. Apart from that my partner and I enjoyed the quiet and were very pleased with the room quality"

Moxy Essen City

4/10 Poor

"It was OK, but the smell of the bathroom was terrible and I couldn't sleep because of that strong smell. They didn't change the sheet every day. "

Ramada by Wyndham Essen

8/10 Good

"Very friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast was good although of the two days I had breakfast I was only asked once for my room number to confirm I'd paid for it. I could have had it for free on the first day. I liked the option of getting a voucher at the bar if I opted not to have my room cleaned. About a 10 min walk to the university and about 15 mins from the station so a good location for me. I would certainly return here when visiting Essen again."
