Premier Inn Essen City Limbecker Platz

10/10 Excellent
"The service at this location is excellent. The rooms are not fancy, but the price performance is great. The beds were comfortable enough and everything was clean. The pullout bed on the sofa was not the most comfortable but for a few days it was ok. There was ample free parking on the street in the area. We would stay here again!"

"If you have a car you should be aware that the car park underneath the hotel is separate from the hotel and is accessible by the public from the street. Also if the lift is not working it is 3 flights of stairs to get from the car park to reception. Nice Hotel and great staff"
