Noisy
Our room was next to a door that split the hallway. This door made a lot of noise when it closed. We were woken up multiple times in the night because of people opening and closing the door. Needs something so that the door closes more slowly/quietly. Windows weren't well insulated so lot of noise from outside as well. Breakfast area was not big enough for the amount of people. Was chaotic. Would not stay here again.

Great breakfast, clean rooms
Clean room, matching the pictures and description. However in need of renovation - broken drawer, some cracks on the bathroom tiles etc. Nothing big enough to be upset about, but somewhat sub-par for a Holiday Inn. On the upside - amazing breakfast!

Nice hotel, great location. Old building, rooms should've been renovated years ago.

I am not satisfied to the follwing : I could not use cooler box because it is browken and I aked hotel to repair it but it was not prepared. also, I struggled to keep privacy because there is no tag which show privacy or keeing clean roon.

Chose the hotel due to its location good to U-Bahn (U11) Berliner Platz. Hotel instead was fine and the breakfast was a splendid choice of dishes. Room was large albeit slightly dated but in general was very clean and comfortable. Would I stay again, yes.

Arrived by car to find parking area was closed due to building work, no mention of this on website during booking, parking was one of the main reasons I chose this hotel ,very difficult to find a park, receptionist Eda was rude and patronising, our room was fine but had a loose toilet seat and bed was only prepared for one person not 2, Roberto in the lounge bar was very nice and the bruschetta was very tasty, breakfast was excellent but hotel was overpriced at almost 150 euro per night.

We stayed here for the second time and everything is going worse this year : water temperature in the shower is unstable, towels are so worn so they have holes, walls are dirty, desinfection odor everywhere is terrible. Breakfast is good. So we won't come back.
Larisa, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

I would like to make a complaint regarding my stay at this hotel. And quite frankly, I would like to request a refund of my money. I got to this hotel on Friday. Upon getting to the reception, the receptionist told me they didn't have any suite left and the only suite they have left was a smokers suite. And that if I couldn't take that, that I sadly couldn't stay at the hotel. I decided to stay in the smokers suite because I had no other options. I had travelled all the way from Munich to Essen and had no other choice but to stay the night in Essen. Anyway, I have attached some pictures of the room I stayed in to this email. The room was quite frankly disgusting. The floors had all sorts of dirt on it. The walls also had some marking as if some kinda drug addicts had lived there.

2/10 Poor

Facility does not have AC in all rooms and no restaurant although it advertises it does. Carpets are dirty and stained, curtains ripped. Towels extremely small and thin. They kept on lying saying restaurant will open the following day but never did and also lied about central AC which they don’t have. Bathroom and room smelled bad and floor in bathroom still showed iron stained from prior guest. Simply disgusting.
Mia, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Our recent stay at the Holiday Inn in Essen was very disappointing. The hotel desperately needs an upgrade. We booked a room for two but were given one set of amenities. When we asked about the second set, we were told it was in the closet. All we found was an extra blanket, which was useless in the 34-degree heat with no air conditioning. We needed another set of towels! Moreover, the bathroom trash can hadn't been cleaned from the previous guests and was filled with bloody tissues. This level of cleanliness is unacceptable. The staff noted our complaints at check-out, but that doesn't excuse the poor experience. We won't be staying here again. Next time, we'll find somewhere else.

Terrible night at ESSEN.
The heating on the room was to intense (in all hotel actually). Even shutting the termostat there was still hot air incoming. I asked the reception to fixe it but they couldn't. I had to sleep with an open window earing the trafic. There was a water escape from the WC. A waste (and a noisy one). To expensive and unconfortable.

Essen Motorshow på 20ende året.
I forbindelse med Essen Motorshow som vi har vært på de siste 20 årene så har Holiday Inn vært det foretrukne hotell. Men lite har endret seg på disse årene og det begynner dessverre å bli litt slitt. Men rommene er store og helt greie. Frokosten er litt dyr i forhold til hva man får, men den er midt på treet. Service fra betjeningen er topp og ligger fint plassert midt i sentrum av Essen.

Schrecklicher Aufenthalt
Ich bekam ein RaucherZimmer obwohl ich extra NichtRaucher gebucht hatte. Aussage der Mitarbeiterin: In der untersten Kathegorie kann man RaucherZimmer bekommen wenn das Hotel voll ist. Habe dann ein Zimmer bekommen in dem die Heizung ausgefallen ist. Das dritte Zimmer war dann "ganz ok" obwohl es immernoch nicht Warm war. Ich hätte am liebsten Storniert, die Mitarbeiterin durfte dies aber nicht kostenfrei durchführen. Das Hotel ist Uralt, die Teppiche dreckig. War das letzte mal das ich dort übernachtet habe.
