What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“My absolutely first overnight at a hotel in Germany that had an AC unit in the room! The staff was super friendly and the breakfast was bountiful. If we are ever in GE again, then we will be back.”
“This hotel in Gelsenkirchen is the one to go for in this area! It combines vibrant art, modern and comfy rooms, and a delicious breakfast to start your day with. Its location near to the arena is just perfect for short visits, and the friendly staff makes you feel at yours!”
“Wonderful caring proprietors who bend over backwards to make your stay memorable and comfortable. The rooms are fashionably modern with every comfort of home. I would highly recommend this place. PS: the breakfast is also great.”
“My mother and me booked for this hotel lately, and we loved it! The hotel has the right balance between moderately fancy interior designs of rooms and floors, and practicality. The Staff are friendly, polite and helpful when needed. Simply put: Highly recommended for anyone visiting families or friends in Gelsenkirschen. Also a good place to get away from work pressure or vacation time. Cheers!”
