Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Nh Essen is often described as a modern and clean hotel centrally located, making it easy to reach the city center and the A40 highway; plus, the Christmas market and a shopping mall are just a short walk away. The spacious rooms offer heated radiators in the shower, and some guests have found the area surrounding the hotel less welcoming. Guests can enjoy a good breakfast and, if you skip room cleaning, you get a free drink voucher for the bar.
