New Work Hotel

Good value and convenient location
Near to the station, so easy access to a lot of nearby cities. Modern room and clean shower room. Breakfast was worth the additional fee and the staff were very welcoming.

Good location. Clean. Comfy beds. Quite modern. Good wifi.
Amazing for one night, real close to Essen station across the highway.

Good hotel not far from station
Clean and efficient, a 5 minute walk from main station and 10 minutes from main shopping area/city centre. A standard business hotel with friendly staff and good value for money.

We stayed there just for one night for the Essen Board Game convention and everything was great. The room was clean and spacious and the stuff was very kind to answer any question we had. It seems to attract lots of gamers during that period and we were lucky enough to meet some famous people from the board gaming community staying there. We stayed on the ground floor just next to the breakfast area and it was a bit noisy in the morning but that wasn't a problem for us.

Really friendly, helpful staff, comfortable and sizeable room. Breakfast buffet was excellent for an additional, reasonable, fee. Close to train station and the opera house, was very happy to stay here.

Comfortable rooms with good quality service a at Essen central train station

Good location and comfortable bed. The TV doesn't work properly unfortunately.

high quality accommodation at good price.

Location is very good, just 5 min walks from the station so very convenient to visit the city and get transportation for sites nearby. Reception staff is available only from 06 till around 22 but they were very nice and professional; indeed for example the bed needed to be cleaned again for the presence of some hair but they called the housekeeping immediately so no issue, the shower door was not closing perfectly and water went outside but the day after they fixed it. Room was nice, good size. Breakfast was good, not so much choice for sweets like croissants but beside this wide variety and the price was very good. Room price was also good in my view. I think this hotel is very convenient and I reccomend it.

We arrived in Düsseldorf Airport and found our way to Skytrain that in 5 minutes brought us to the airport regional train station. Getting out of Skytrain we found the ticket machine and after setting it for English we had no trouble to buy train tickets for Essen. We did not have to wait long for the train as quite a few regional lines pass Essen. The journey lasted half an hour. Getting off the train we followed the crowd to the back of the train and down the stairs. At the bottom we turned left towards “Freiheit”, climbed the concrete steps, walked to the right up the street to the traffic lights, turned to the left to cross the street and on to the bridge over the motor way. We passed a monument showing workers in a coal mine. A small transport alley leading down to the left took us into Heinickestrasse with New Work Hotel in the first building on the left. The room I got was a bit special with the basin and shower cabin within the room and a bathroom with an only toilet. I couldn’t see the point for that in a single room. My sister’s room was a bit smaller and had an ordinary bathroom with toilet, basin and shower cabin. Both rooms were really clean and well kept. We were later told by a man we met in the street that the building had been unused and turned into a hotel some years ago. With the windows closed you couldn’t hear any noise neither from the motor way nor from all the cars coming to park in the street just outside. The breakfast was quite sufficient with hot and cold stuff, although I missed yoghurt. The reception close at 22:00 (on occasion earlier) so make sure to bring your key card. We enjoyed our stay at Kempe New Work Hotel in a quiet and calm area of Essen 5 minutes or 400 meters away from the main railway station, underground and tram stop.
