A clean, fairly spacious room with a good bathroom offering plenty of hot water instantly. Disappointingly there was no room service, no information booklet and no complementary things such as water, biscuits, drink making facilities in the room.

Amazing stay rooms were so clean and comfortable, I wasn’t the biggest fan of the area maybe because I didn’t explore as much but other than that this was a great clean and safe feeling hotel I would definitely stay here again

Highly recommended!

Had a brilliant stay at Select Hotel in Essen. The hotel is perfectly located opposite the main station. The room was spotlessly clean, comfortable and well equipped. For the money paid I was extremely impressed and would definitely return

You're not coming to Essen for the culture or scenery (or if you are then you've got different tastes to me) but for the Messe conference centre this is perfect. It's clean, comfortable and the staff are very professional. Got a nice bar, and the breakfast is good. I've stayed here 10 times and will definitely return - highly recommended.
