Hotel Fabritz, hotel in Essen

Located in the Rüttenscheid district, on the southern outskirts of Essen, this family-run hotel offers excellent road and public transport access to the city centre and exhibition grounds.

Very nice staff! Very quiet place and neighbourhood. To get to the hotel needs only a few bus or tram stops from the main station. The room was very spacious, the same as bathroom. Cleaning service, refreshed room, clean bedsheets and towels noticed every day! :) Grocery store and bakery next to hotel. They also have a restaurant, but we had no chance to try it.

Hotel Schmerkötter, hotel in Essen

This hotel near Bochum's Ruhr University and technology district offers quiet accommodation with free Wi-Fi and good transport links.

The staff were incredibly welcoming, friendly and helpful! I was there for the Zeltfestival and the staff gave me maps and explained how all the shuttles worked. They were available all of the day till 9pm so if I had questions I felt comfortable coming up to them. The rooms were very clean and had nice sized beds. On the tv youtube, netflix and other apps were available. The rooms had mini fridges which were nice. The shower was on the smaller size for taller or more plus sized guests but still did the job. Overall the rooms and location felt very safe and welcoming. Would definitely recommend!
