Hotel in zona MP Xpress, Bottrop

During my visit to Gladbeck, Germany in December 2022 for the K-show, our large group had the convenience of traveling with an Indian chef who made our stay at Van der Valk Hotel more comfortable. As we approached the hotel, its serene atmosphere immediately engulfed us, surrounded by nature in every aspect. The rooms were calm and incredibly cozy, allowing us to relax and unwind. Since we had our own chef, we never faced any issues with food. We had the luxury of excellent choices and delicious meals throughout our stay. However, there are a few areas where the hotel could improve. Firstly, it was embarrassing that the bathroom in our room didn't have a door. This made it uncomfortable to share the room with colleagues. Additionally, the service desk was frequently unattended, and there was a lack of room service. Even small requests that were communicated to the staff were not fulfilled. Despite these drawbacks, the staff at the counter remained positive and assured us that our needs would be met. However, it seemed to be more talk than action. On a positive note, the rooms and bedding were great, and the heating system worked perfectly. The experience of walking through the hotel's corridors and encountering stairs along the way added a unique touch, possibly due to the hotel's older style and architecture. Germans are strong and wouldn't mind this. but for us poor Indians with a pot belly its a tough one :) Overall, my stay at Van der Valk Hotel in Gladbeck was above average, thanks to the calm and cozy rooms. However, there is room for improvement, particularly in terms of staff responsiveness and fulfilling guest requests. Nonetheless, the serene ambiance of the hotel and its convenient location made it a decent choice for our visit.

Eravamo in hotel alle cinque e avevamo due camere con porta a scivolo super classe. Bello hotel, molto pulito, grande bagno, letti confortevoli, bevande deliziose. Super connessione al negozio e come hotel musical- così l'abbiamo utilizzato! Personale competente e amichevole sia in reception, pulizia o bar. Anche il servizio di navetta era fantastico. Eravamo soddisfatti intorno. Super delizioso equilibrato colazione sana - tutto ciò che il cuore desidera. Da frutta/verdura fresca a frutta deliziosa, eccellente selezione di pane/fragole, specialità di tè e caffè. Non abbiamo mancato niente! La sauna privata era anche un sogno e ci siamo piaciuti completamente! Grazie per il piacevole soggiorno! Io perdone 5 su 5 stelle!

Wij hadden een familiekamer met een stapelbed achter een muurtje, net iets ruimer dan de normale familiekamers. Klein, maar prima voor deze prijs. Het was schoon, maar missen een stopcontact in de ruimte van het stapelbed (voor nachtlampje), geen kluisje in de kamer en geen waterkoker of bekers/glazen. Er was wel een fohn. Daarnaast waren er geen aparte lichten bij de nachtkastjes die je kon dimmen. De ruimte was ook te klein zodat de rest toch ”last” heeft van het licht van degene die nog wakker was. Ook waren de ramen niet verduisterend genoeg. Omdat je op de begane grond zat kon er makkelijk een sigarettenlucht binnen komen in de ochtend (mensen stonden voor de deur te paffen). We deden dan ook geen ramen open, maar het was ook warm, dus we gebruikten de airco, die was goed. De afzuiging in de badkamer was luid, stopt gelukkig na 10 minuten het licht uit. Housekeeping vergat na het verschonen een keer de zeep aan te vullen. De receptie is na 22.00u niet meer te bereiken. Kamer is niet geluidsdicht, zo hoorden we 2 avonden het piepen van de wasmachine die klaar was (blijkbaar zaten we naast een washok) welke het personeel niet hoort bij de receptie, de wekker van de buren en drukke bovenburen. Gelukkig hoorden we nauwelijks geluiden van de straat. Er zijn niet genoeg haakjes in de badkamer voor een gezin van 4, achter de voordeur van de kamer zit wel een kapstok, die hebben we dan maar gebruikt, want we hadden geen jassen bij ons. De vloer van de badkamer wordt snel nat, want de douchedeur kan niet goed dicht. Het slapen zelf was OK, krappe, maar stevige bedden/matrassen, te slappe hoofdkussens. We hebben 1 ochtend het ontbijtbuffet gereserveerd, dat was simpel maar prima voor de prijs, broodjes, toast, vlees, kaas, zoet beleg, cakejes, fruit en cereal met havermelk. Koffie/thee en sapjes uit de machine te halen en gekookte eieren. Maar je moet kleine mensen helpen, i.v.m. weinig ruimte ligt het brood boven je hoofd in mandjes, je moet even zoeken, de eieren lagen in een mandje onder het buffet. Wij waren vroeg, maar na 9 uur wordt het druk qua zitplekken. Locatie is top, je kan parkeren bij het hotel, het hotel zit tegenover Westfield CentrO. Als je er niet naar toe wil lopen heb je genoeg keuze qua restaurants (aziatisch, pizza, burgers en steak) rondom het hotel (achter het hotel is een soort industrieterrein, met een bouwmarkt etc.) en er zit een Lidl vlakbij en 2 Shell stations met KFC. De meneer achter de receptie was heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam betreffende informatie vragen.

Il servizio dell'hotel è buono, l'altro è il centro conveniente

B&B dovrebbe essere un hotel economico in catena tedesco. Diverse città hanno vissuto. Il bilancio è limitato ma vogliono vivere in un hotel moderno.La stanza è molto tranquilla e dorme bene.

Camere molto soddisfatte e molto pulite E vicino al centro 1 minuto a piedi super In camera molto bello accogliente Buon sonno super

Had a great stay in Moxy Essen from 11/06/2023 – 14/06/2023. I was travelling around the Rhine Ruhr region with my friend (and we both have Marriott Gold elite status from staying in a Marriott for university). This hotel was in a great location right next to the HBF station in Essen and was clean and modern. The bar had a good vibe and we had free drinks on arrival. We used points for this stay, and the way that the points worked out meant that we had 2 different bookings over 3 nights, but this was not an issue and we managed to get the same room for the duration of our stay (we even got a bonus welcome drink for it)! I’m probably not going to do the hotel justice here, but it was a well laid out and stylish hotel with decent sized rooms. We had a twin room to share and the staff made extra effort so that we were on the quieter side of the building. We initially checked into the hotel at approximately 2pm, but decided to spend the afternoon in Wuppertal. When we arrived back on the first night. I had a shower, and there was no shampoo. No big deal, but I ended up going down to reception to ask for some. The man couldn’t find any shampoo, but about half an hour later, some appeared, I think he probably brought I from the shop as it wasn’t in the normal bright pink Moxy bottle, but it was really nice of him to make the effort. That day, the weather hit 32 degrees and whilst we were waiting for the shampoo, we tried to work out how the air conditioning worked. Between me and my friend that I was travelling with, we couldn’t work it out, so we asked the employee. However, between the 3 of us and Google we could not work it out. Anyway, I think we were the only people in the hotel that night as this was approximately midnight local time, and I think we went in every room in the corridor. To try and find one with working air con. All of them were empty! We eventually found one that wasn’t like a sauna and packed our stuff and moved. The employee was genuinely the nicest and most helpful employee I think I have ever seen in a hotel, very apologetic, but also very sociable. It was really nice to meet him as he was so happy to help. Unfortunately I didn’t get his name, but he had a ponytail I think and said he was Turkish. I think he will know who we are when he reads this! I saw him off duty in the bar the next night and thanked him. We even got 2 free breakfasts out of this!! The breakfast was good, though probably not worth the price we were told when we booked (I think it was about 15 euros but can’t remember as I have stayed in about 5 hotels in the past week and they have all rolled into one a bit). There was a few cooked items (Bacon & Scrambled Egg) and a few cold/ cereal items, but not loads. I probably wouldn’t recommend getting breakfast as all the Moxys allow a free coffee/ juice in the morning and a pastry, which is a nice touch. Overall, we really enjoyed our time in Germany and really liked our stay at the Moxy, so we would like to sa

Non saputo molto conveniente. Quando la stazione della metropolitana esce, arriva attraverso la strada opposta.La colazione è molto ricca, tutte le bevande di salsa e così via.Molte scelte.La progettazione della stanza è anche molto bella.Sceglierai l'hotel di nuovo.

Bella nuova hotel. Il personale (e il cane) era grande. Il riscaldamento nel nuovo edificio sembra essere un problema. Il colazione era grande, anche la stanza.

Zimmer sind sehr schön. Personal sehr sehr freundlich. Das Frühstücksbueffet reichlich und alles frisch zubereitet. Das Hotel liegt Zentral, man kann zu Fuß alles sehr gut erreichen und ist direkt im Zentrum. Gerne wieder werde ich, wenn ich in Duisburg bin, dieses Hotel wählen.
