Mintrops Land Hotel Burgaltendorf

Booked this hotel as a stopover as wanted somewhere pet and child friendly, but I feel this would be a hotel I would happily book for a longer stay. The staff were very friendly, the breakfast options were great. There was a small children's play area with books and toys that came as a nice surprise, and the pool area was lovely with sauna and massage bed. The charges for the dog (€20) were more than I have seen at other hotels, but the hotel provides a very good service (including dog bowl, towels, extra poo bags if needed) that I feel they can perhaps justify the additional fees. Also note that an extra bed in a standard room will set you back €35 but the base room price is reasonable for the service you get, so again is perhaps justified. We were unexpectedly upgraded to a suite due to overbooking so this was a nice surprise as we had doors with direct access to a little patio area. I like that the hotel provided basic soap and body wash in refillable dispensers but offered free toiletries from the desk if you needed them. I like to see hotels cutting back on waste in what ways they can so this was great. The castle and town centre were only a short walk away and we were able to get food in town easily so did not try the hotel restaurant on this occasion but the menu sounded lovely.

restaurant was excellent

Lovely and guest oriented hotel in green area
This hotel lies in the greener outskirt of Essen, ideal for cycling trips or to visit tne Ruhrgebiet without the rush of a city centre. We had a very comfortable stay. There is a lot of eye for detail in this hotel. For example: we had two racebikes with us which we could park securely in a special and fully equipped bikegarage. The breakfast was well organised and the restaurant is a recommendation for lunch and dinner. Last but not least the personnel is really guest focussed. Only attention point; there is no AC in the room so I suppose there room could get really hot in summer.

Lovely spacious room, very friendly staff

Guests rave about the friendly and attentive staff, who go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay.

The pool was awesome!

Great Hotel, great restaurant. The waiter really makes every evening special, an excellent host. Nice rooms, dog friendly, great for children. A lot of room to play around or to play in the pool..The staff goes beyond what you may expect to give you a great time. We will be back for a third time real soon:)

Everyone at the hotel was helpful and able to answer any questions we had. There was always someone available. Thank you for a delightful stay! Also, the food was delicious!
