Holiday Inn - the niu, Cobbles Essen by IHG

The people who was working here is really friendly.

The shower cabin doesn't close properly. After I'm done with my shower all the washing room floor was wet. So when i needed to go to the toilet my feet were always wet, i stayed at this hotell 2 days in diferent rooms. Bought of the room's hawe the same problem.

Super friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast. Nice walking distance (15 minutes) from the Essen city center.

Staff friendly and very helpful

1st room smelled so changed rooms

Modern atmosphere and clean rooms. The staff was very nice and kind. Location is at a very busy corner of two main streets but the rooms are quiet.

The bed's mattress seem to be done already - I was sleeping in a V-shape albeit my weight is 82kilo for a 1,90m man (actually I was not really sleeping). Although the bed linen was comfy and clean, the impression of the mattress was that it hasn't been replaced in a while.

Up to date, with modern decor and furnishings, bed was super comfy and the bathroom was a bit wow - handy for centre of town.

Nothing to dislike

We booked because walking to the trade center was doable distance wise. Breakfast was okay (continental) and the space seemed clean. They advertise free football streaming (but we didn’t manage to be back on time as we were still at the fare grounds)

That the additional bed tax was not communicated prior to arriving, that the staff at the counter was not able to calculate that properly (no awareness that there is a limit to the tax). parking capacities were very limited (which was also not communicated prior even though we specifically asked for it) and is given on a first come first serve basis. The bed was way too soft for our taste.

Excellent staff. English knowledge could be a little bit better with some of the staff, but all friendly and helpful. The room was very clean and nice, nice bed, great shower. Really fun and relaxing atmosphere. Breakfast was good.

A bit of a distance to the center. Easy to take a uber but a bit far to walk to many places when the weather wasnt cooperating. Ordered dinner one evening which was a bit dissapointing.

Cosy, modern and nicely designed room. Clean hotel, comfortable bed, quiet place and good night sleep. The price was OK.

If I have to be picky: Breakfast was a bit scarce but we stayed during busy Essen Spiel days, so that’s reasonable… Wardrobe is not illuminated, a mistake from an interior designer.

Good value , great staff , good selection for breakfast.

Parking is limited .

Location good, staff great, room looks nice.

No mini frigde, kettle (watercooker) or bottles of water.Breakfast could be better,, especially the seating, it was very chaotic. Groups of 4 people sitting at tables for 8 people, even in the middle of the table.. One big matress would have been better, been sleeping in between them.A spotlight above the closet area would be great too, used the phone flashlight in the evening. Windowlight during the day.

Modern hotel. Clean

Limited parking, poor booking in and out experience, limited food

Good value for your money and not a bad location also

Parking is not free and very limited. No availability when I arrived and during my stay

Clean room and good breakfast

Parking is not possible after certain hours you have to park on site street

Nice modern hotel, comfortable, good overall value.

Location has pros and cons, parking can be a faff, cigarette smoke coming into the inside restaurant.

The Room was super clean, and the bed was super comfortable. It is situated in a good location for Essen. Staff was helpful and nice, they speak good English :) We did not choose the bfast option (for next time) but went for bfast for €18 per person. It included everything from cereal, to fruits, toast/bread, eggs, sausages and everything :)

no complaints

Comfortable rooms, nice breakfast, good location

Great location to centre. Rooms very clean and staff helpful.

Room. right next to main road so very loud. Also, quite hot due to time of year and hard to cool down but overall very satisfied with room.

Clean

The parking is an absolute rip off.€25 for a simple car park spot, not even underground and not even city centre. Location is pretty horrible. Loud road etc.

friendly staff on welcome

shower flooded, had to move to another room. Noisy guest who had to be removed. Non of it hotels fault

Employees are not happy that...

Terrible service, I had to ask for an invoice and correct data several times. Despite the staff's assurances that I would receive the documents by email after check-out. Despite paying for the stay directly through booking, the hotel demanded another payment and referred me to the booking portal instead of checking in the system.
