    • It was a nice and comfy room with an excellent breakfast selection. The staff was kind and polite.
    • Catastrofa
    • My husband, my son, and I were very warmly welcomed and well attended to by the reception, and from this friendly service, we could already tell it would be a great experience. The entire hotel is clean, organized, and quiet. It was wonderful, and I highly recommend it.

    Cons -

    • I was cheated. I booked the room and I payed on advance. When we come the room which we booked was not avalible. We need to find another hotel. That hotel didnt give us money back. They cheated us. They didnt check in us and didnt give money back.
    • It was wonderful, and I highly recommend it.
    • Nothing to dislike. Tea and coffee making facilities would be nice in the room, as would a small fridge.

    Good location for Techno Classica at Messe, just across the road from the hotel.Staff were very nice and friendly. Breakfast was very nice with plenty to choose from

    Nothing to dislike. Tea and coffee making facilities would be nice in the room, as would a small fridge.

    nice very personal hotel. service is very good and after one night they know already what you like for breakfast without asking. Give a nice homely feeling. Room that I had was nice and quiet

    Super friendly staff, flexible in the arrangement

    Bathroom was a bit small and a little bit older

    The hotel is centrally located with plenty of parking in walking distance to the event center, the park, and the downtown. it is clean and there is very friendly staff on site 24/7.

    We did not understand, why they placed us in a room on the 4th floor facing the sun, and the loud morning traffic, if the hotel was entirely empty.

    It is a very charming smaller hotel. Extremely helpful and friendly staff! Hotel an der Gruga is located in the south of Essen, about 25min by car from Düsseldorf airport and just 5min walking distance from my company‘s office. So a perfect location for me.will definitely be back

    nothing actually

    The rooms were clean and tidy

    Fresh drinking still water was nice on arrival , unfortunately it was not replenished daily during our stay but we felt it should have been. There was shampoo available however we also felt that there also should have been shower gel and soap too available as standard.

    Great location next to the Gruga park and some nice cafes on the street close by. The breakfast staff was outstanding and accomodated special requests (decaf, non-dairy milk). The rooms are very clean and comfortable.

    It was a bit hot at night as the rooms don't have ACs.

    9DanielPosted on: 7-3-2022

    There is a little park with benches in the inner courtyard. Very nice. Breakfast is fabolous as advertised (great variety).

    Room small, but ok. No light curtains. Location somewhat outside of Essen

    9KailynPosted on: 4-30-2022

    The cleanliness was supreme and the staff were super friendly!

    Parking did cost extra, but they let us keep the car there until we left later that day.
