This has to be one of the coolest hotels I've ever been in. First, the location. The hotel is actually IN the famous Zollverein historic coal and coke complex. So just check in, park your car in their dedicated lot and then just wander. It takes hours and hours to make a proper visit to the Zollverein. Secondly, because the owners (a private party who owns just two other hotels in Germany) has gone of his or her way to carry through on the theme of the colliery. There are all kinds of interesting pictures and artifacts that go back to the days when the complex was operating. Third, the staff. Talk about a friendly bunch! The two ladies on the front desk are especially accommodating and both speak excellent English. They exemplify the name of the hotel where they work. Terrific. The rooms are also full of character, and again, follow through on a theme. So, to sum up, if you don't absolutely have to be in a hotel in Essen City Center, the Hotel Friends would be a wonderful choice.
