"Als ich das Zimmer betrat, war es furchtbar. Die ganze Nacht war Wasser aus der Toilette getropft, es war ohrenbetäubend laut, ich konnte nicht schlafen. An der Rezeption war niemand, an dem ich das Problem melden konnte. Erst am Morgen kam jemand, um es zu reparieren. Die gesamte Rezeption stand unter Wasser. Ich musste das Hotel verlassen und in ein anderes umziehen."

Top Red Dot Design Museum Hotel Reviews

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Essen

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Essen

10/10 Excellent
"Everything was good, although the initial room wasn't the one we had actually booked; we spent the first night there, but the room was changed the very next day as soon as we notified the front desk. One thing that surprised us was the lack of a refrigerator in the room! The first room had a safe, but the second one didn't. The room was very clean. The breakfast was excellent; we were charged for it, but that wasn't an issue. There was railway construction work going on around the hotel, yet there was absolutely no noise. There wasn't much of a view from the window, other than the beautiful sky! We had a very good stay at the hotel at a good price."
