Description

Hotel Bredeney is a four-star property in Essen, Germany, originally constructed in 1974 and renovated in 1998. It offers a wide variety of room types, from Standard Single rooms to spacious Family Apartments and Cottages, catering to different group sizes. Guests can enjoy amenities such as a fitness centre, sauna, spa and wellness centre, and an indoor pool, although some reviews note the pool is not heated. The hotel features a restaurant with buffet breakfast served daily, and a bar with cocktails. Services include free parking, WiFi, laundry, and 24-hour front desk assistance. While the hotel has air conditioning listed as a service, some guests report rooms lacking this feature.

Just your average affordable hotel with a pool. Too many guests , working class and students on tour when I checked in . Front desk staff not friendly or hospitable enough. Including staff in the restaurant /bar . Your "to go food " comes with the tray you need to carry on your own to your room , they say thats how they serve food for take out to your room and nobody to offer a hand even if you have your luggages ... then the tray !

Room was dirty - hair in the sink and shower. Not only a bit, but whole hairballs.
Toilets didn’t work properly.
Bed was very bad
The pool was cold and the staff was very rude and disrespectful.
All in all a worn out place that I can not recommend anyone visiting.
04.09.2025 Marcus
Huge hotel, easy parking, location was ok, building and rooms getting old, but all was clean! Restaurant was very good! And breakfast had a very good selection - hot & cold.
29.08.2025 Tailored
We arrived at 8pm and were told that their restaurant shifts at 9 , in summer , height season .
They gave a us a list of take away places nearby that all shut between 9 and 10.
Uncomfortable pillows, scarne bathroom, sad interiors , dirty carpet , mouldy sink and bath .

Good, only far from the main city
20.08.2025 Chris
The staff were absolutely fantastic, after an overbook by ******* the staff went above and beyond for us as a family with two children. Would highly recommend and have saved this as a hotel we will be staying at in the future

This is one of the most horrible hotel experiences I’ve ever had.

It started with the employees – they were not welcoming and didn’t even look at you when speaking. Maybe they are overworked or underpaid, but either way the service felt unfriendly.

The room was disappointing: very old, humid, full of mosquitoes, and with no air conditioning – making it unbearable in summer. To make it worse, there was no soap provided.
Breakfast was just okay, but the coffee tasted awful and I even found a hair in the water.
Never ever again – I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone.

Pool ok. Tiny toilets/showers in rooms.

Avoid during summer holidays.

Bartending staff have about as much charm as a concussed Tasmanian Devil.

I may have well saved the money and gotten better service at my local spa.
07.05.2025 Guest
The room was clean and very quiet. The service was extremely friendly and attentive. The quality of the food in the restaurant was also good.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!
Think about what you would like to know if you were looking for a review about a place to relax. Please describe in detail what you liked and what you didn't. What would you advise to other guests and to the hotel owner. The more fully you tell about the hotel, the easier it will be for other people to make a choice and they will be very grateful to you!
