What our guests say
Es war alles super! Eine sehr schöne Unterkunft – würde es immer wieder buchen. Vielen lieben Dank nochmal für den tollen Service!
Super Wohnung, sehr gemütlich mit eigenem Stellplatz. Würde ich gerne nochmal buchen.
Wir waren als 4-köpfige Familie vor Ort. Die Wohnung ist klein aber fein. Ein Supermarkt ist fußläufig gut erreichbar. Die Lage zur Zeche Zollverein ist super (25 Minuten zu Fuß). Der Stellplatz vor der Tür ist perfekt.
Good to know
Essen isn't a classic holiday destination – which is exactly why accommodation here works differently. Most guests come for Messe Essen, for a work assignment, for the university hospital or for a weekend of Ruhr culture. A holiday apartment in Essen is almost always the better choice than a hotel room: more space, your own kitchen, a washing machine – and from the second or third night simply cheaper.
Location matters: the U11 takes you from the main station to Messe Essen and the Grugahalle in around ten minutes. If you come by car, look for a parking space – around the fairgrounds it gets tight on event days and parking there costs around €12 per day. Our apartments are in Essen and Mülheim an der Ruhr, many with their own parking or underground space.
Booking early pays off: for major events such as SPIEL, the Essen Motor Show or Security Essen, accommodation near the fairgrounds is often gone months in advance. You'll find the current dates with our trade fair accommodation. For longer stays – project assignments or the time until you move – take a look at our temporary apartments, and for teams and work crews at the workers' rooms and apartments in Essen.
Book direct instead of via a portal: with us there's no platform service fee, you have a dedicated contact person and we can respond flexibly to requests – from an earlier check-in to extending by a few nights. If you have questions, reach us directly on WhatsApp.
Frequently asked questions
Because you get the same calendar here, but without the platform mark-up: portals typically charge guests around 14 % in service fees on top. Plus, you get our best-price guarantee: if you find the same apartment for the same dates cheaper there, we'll refund the difference plus a €20 credit. And you have a direct line to us – before, during and after your stay.
Check-in is possible from 3:00 p.m. – via self-check-in with a keypad lock, no key handover needed, at any time of day. If you're arriving earlier, just drop us a quick message: we're happy to try to arrange an earlier check-in for you.
