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.
