Essen Accommodation

Picking out a place to base yourself can be a difficult task if you're not too sure of the area. With a whopping 44 accommodations in Essen to choose from, Wotif's straightforward filter tool will be your new best friend.

If you want to get over that jet lag, snuggle down in luxury at the Sheraton Essen Hotel (Huyssenallee 55) or the Hotel Rhein-Ruhr (Essener Str. 140). A little too fancy for you? Don't worry. We've got some great accommodations that are not only cosy and convenient, they're easy on the bank balance. Have a look at the Maritim Hotel Gelsenkirchen (Am Stadtgarten 1) and the IntercityHotel Essen (Hachestrasse 10).

Car Hire in Essen

Collecting a set of wheels directly from Duesseldorf International Airport will ensure that you don't have to bother with public buses or taxis. Europcar is a short walk from the luggage carousel.

You won't have any issues scoring a car in the middle of the city, even if you're a bit picky. See if something jumps out at you at Budget (Alfredistrasse 28). Otherwise, head over to Sixt (Ostfeldstr 9) and look up their deals.

Holidays to Essen

Been bitten by the travel bug and prescribed yourself a visit to Essen? Perfect choice. But before you scratch that itch, it's good to research one or two things about where you're venturing to.

Want to picture exactly where you'll be staying? Essen is located 17 kilometres east of the popular city of Duisburg.

If you're holidaying with the young ones and they're starting to get bored, why not give them a quiz to see if they know what the population of this area of Ruhr is? (It's 600 000 in case you're wondering yourself.)
