Don't expect a double bed

Room 516 has a wobbly door so bangs with a breeze, while I could hear every lift movement throughout the night it kept waking me up. The curtains at least were blackout

Shower trap was not working so I could smell feaces in the morning from other rooms

No plug sockets near bedside

TV selection was poor

No rooms were doubles all single beds together with small single sheets

Too basic for a three and a half star hotel. Sone staff were nice but not very helpful. Information about the nearby facilities was rather deceiving. True, the hotel is 5 minutes away from the railway station but don’t be fooled; it’s Wattenscheid station which was not mentioned at all in the Expedia website description. All my activities were based in Bochum, 10 km away from the hotel, so I spent over €120 in taxis NOT happy at all.

Tryp Bochum Wattenscheid.

Rooms were big enough. Nothing interesting to see from the windows but was not expecting anything. Car park is next to Lidl supermarket so very easy for last minute snacks etc. Handy for the tram service into Bochum and also to the Veltins Arena for Schalke football. Breakfasts were good and plentiful. Bar a little short of seating for larger groups. Ideal for couples or a handful of people.

Nice place to stay and bid go there again.

The place was pretty good considering the price. Read the fine print though, there is a €60 cleaning fee and local taxes on top of the listed price. Bring towels and hand soap, since none of that was provided. The place was clean and was in good shape. I would go back there again. We paid them in cash, but they gave us a receipt that we both signed, so I’m fine with that.

Not Bad

Not the greatest location, but a 20 minute walk will take you to Wattenscheid station, where you can catch a train to Dortmund, Bochum etc. Actual room was large and clean, with a very comfortable bed. Only real issue was that the walls are pretty thin and it's pretty noisy at night. Local area is very quiet and safe, not much going on though.

Good hotel but wifi offer should be improved

I think the staff were very friendly and caring, what really was not very comforting was the fact that the wireless wifi was free for two hours but the meter kept running so you could not use the time effectively. Almost all hotels provide free WIFI and with whatsapp being on 24 hours it makes little sense to have two hour limit. Looks like the hotel is tuck in the old ages of 10 years ago.

WOULD STAY THERE AGAIN

The stay was great.The staff was excellent in every aspect.The food was very good.Excellent selection of food.The service at the bar was also excellent with a great selection of good scotches and whiskeys. Price was also very good being at a hotel. The only thing I didn't like was the internet speed was a little slow.The internet is free,but also only limited to 50MB, which means if you are doing business, this is not enough. So I paid the $5 for unlimited, which is not so bad, because the cost of the hotel was ALSO EXCELLENT

Tryp hotel - better than expected

The hotel is stuck out in what feels like the middle of nowhere (depending on where you're visiting - we had a conference at Essen), but the staff are friendly and the facilities are perfectly adequate. But the restaurant! That was a real and very pleasant surprise - much better quality than we expected, good fresh ingredients and large portion size. We weren't expecting much in fairness, but it was very good.

Très bon hôtel a bon prix pour la région

Hôtel très bien situé proche de grande ville et proche de l'autoroute. Hôtel de grande taille avec grand parking bien entretenu et lumineux la nuit.
Chambre spacieuse avec un lit double et un lit simple idéal pour les familles avec enfants, matelas et couette de bonnes qualités. Dans la chambre vous trouverez un bureau, des rangements et pas mal de meubles nécessaires.
La salle est assez grande avec douche a l'italienne derrière un muret ce qui évite toute éclaboussures.

Petit bémol a l'acceuil le personnel ne sourit et pas de grande aide car notre anglais n'est pas au top. Alors que dans d'autres pays où hôtel on nous a toujours aidés ou mis a l'aise

Das Frühstück hatte eine gute Auswahl. Leider fand ich die Tischanorndnung unglücklich, da es keine zweier Tische gab, sondern nur 4er oder größer. Für Paare, die gerne alleine sitzen wollen, etwas ungünstig. Schlecht finde ich, dass keine Möglichkeit des Kaffee trinken am Nachmittag (oder auch gerne den ganzen Tag) möglich war oder angeboten wird. Die nächsten Möglichkeiten sind dann doch eher weiter vom Hotel entfernt. Es ist sauber, aber hat im ganzen doch eher den Charm einer Jugendherberge. Das Personal, nun ja, freundlich, mehr nicht.
