Perfect stay for a couple of nights. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. A bar, also serving meals, was nice. Breakfast was to my liking. Best of all was the location, just a few minutes walk from the trainstation and U-bahn.
Had a wonderful day trip with my son. The location was perfect from the central train station and the shops. Breakfast was good and had the Gym for myself
Beautiful building at great location. My single room had a very decent sized twin bed. Although the hotel is next to the train station, I heard no noise at any moment of my stay. The gym room is basic, but it offers alternatives for a total body workout.
Nice hotel good location for trains but knocking one star of as my room was not serviced at all 8n the 3 days that i stayed and my sink had a huge crack in it
This is a wonderful hotel. Check in was quick, smooth and professional with a polite and friendly member of staff who showed us to our room personally. We stayed in one of the apartments which the hotel offers which was modern and spacious with a very luxurious feel about it. The beds were extremely comfy and the whole apartment was very well equipped. The hotel is extremely well positioned as it is conveniently close to the main train station and also very close to the central shopping area too. We really wish we could’ve stayed longer as this was the best hotel we stayed in during our Germany tour.

Hotel Essener Hof is very close to the Essen rail station. It has historic charm, with some drawbacks. Many rooms have no air conditioning - you must make a special request for an air-conditioned room, after booking on a third party site. Many rooms are on hallways that have steps to climb from the lift. Staff are friendly and helpful. The bar and restaurant are closed; breakfast is a buffet with many traditional German food choices.
Check in was terrible. I wandered around in the rain for a while before finding the reception area. Our key was there with a note, but because the note was in German I didn't use Google translate on it till we found our room. Turns out the note could have saved us from wandering through different buildings looking for our room.
Now that we're settled, the room is adequate. It is clean and well maintained. We'll be here for 4 nights. Too bad we didn't get a hotel with a kettle so I could make coffee and with a little more space.

Nice hotel with a couple of problems
A nice hotel in a quiet corner of central Essen, very handy for the train station and central shopping areas. The room was large and comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. There was a problem with a leaking extractor fan in the bathroom and no way to fix it over the weekend but they did provide a bucket when I asked as the floor was very wet. The high tech shower completely defeated me. They had left the full maintenance manual in the hotel room for guests to peruse (and who doesn’t love a maintenance manual when on holiday) but I still overlooked the essential switch on the sink that was needed to activate the shower (silly of me not to guess but there was no obvious sign). A pity also that nobody pointed out that only one of the two lifts gets to the fifth floor. Overall: a nice and clean hotel that just needs to up its game a little.
