Lovely new hotel, very automated (electronic door locks that I struggled with). Parking was extra (and didn’t really looked secure).
But all very nice, a good 24/7 bakery is a bit along the street.

Good hotel, friendly and helpful staff and no issues at all with the property. It is a little out of the city centre but there’s a tram and bus stop a few minutes walk away. Also a 24hr petrol station for things like water, drinks etc a minute away which was handy

8/10 Very good! (978 reviews)
The location is excellent, close to the main train station and trams, and easy for walking into the centre, as well as to shops and restaurants. The staff are very pleasant and helpful, and the room was very quiet. It would have been helpful to have the fridge unlocked, but otherwise the room was excellent. I would stay there again.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an Essen vacation package cost?
You'll find cheap prices from CA $639 on Expedia for your Essen getaway. However, factors like the season, length of stay and your choice of hotel will influence how much your vacation to Essen costs.
What are the cheapest months to go to Essen?
If you're hoping to score a cheap Essen vacation package, consider planning a trip in February, March and August. You'll generally find better prices on hotels and airfares during these quieter months — perfect for a budget-friendly break.
How many days is enough for Essen?
Essen vacations come in various shapes and sizes, but to really get a feel for this place, we'd say 2 days is about right. In this timeframe, you can fit in top attractions like Seaside Beach Baldeney and Baldeneysee and seek out some lesser-known spots. Don't forget to visit neighbourhoods such as Stadtbezirke I and Stadtkern either. If you plan wisely, you may even be able to take a day trip outside of Essen too.
Is it worth booking a vacation package to Essen?
Popular for its family-friendly attractions, walking trails and views, an Essen vacation is a hit with all kinds of visitors. Be sure to visit main sights like Zollverein Coal Mine World Heritage Site and Grugapark Botanical Garden, and consider renting some wheels for day trips to discover even more.
How to find the best Essen package deals?
Use Expedia's filters to help you find some terrific Essen package deals. When you start your search, just set your maximum budget and then sort the results by "Price: low to high." If you want to save, plan your break for midweek, or look for Essen package deals in the off-season. Play around with your travel dates and you may score even better discounts. As a rule of thumb, it's usually best to book your vacation package as early as possible.
Is it cheaper to book an Essen vacation as a package?
Expedia vacation packages are designed to help you keep more cash in your pocket. Bundle your flight, hotel and car rental into one great-value price and enjoy significant savings.
