The hotel ignored my repeated messages as well as all messages and phone calls from Expedia. Even after I returned home, they still ignored both me and Expedia! DO NOT patronize this hotel. Even Expedia couldn’t get a response from them. They should be removed from Expedias properties!

Stayed one night during the Taylor Swift concerts, hotel was incredibly busy, staff was great with everyone and very helpful. We had a renovated room, which was nice! (Note - it says air conditioned, I’ve learned on this trip through Germany, that doesn’t mean much, lol. Not different from the other hotels we stayed in) at least there was a fan. Overall good experience! Close to the train stop for the Arena and central train station!

Checking in, they tried to charge me full amount even though i had paid in advance online, took time for them to sort their computer system and find out shy. Then on check out, same again, system said i needed to pay. Luckily i had same member of staff who remembered and after again searching thru the system found out nothing to pay.
Overall, the rooms are very dated, straight out of 1970. Carpets threadbare in places and in overall bad condition, curtains needing replacement and walls in need of paint.
Bathroom again looked very dated. Its almost like going back in time to 1970’s with this hotel, very George & Mildred for those of a certain vintage.
Personally i only needed somewhere to rest and grab a morning shower, so as it had clean sheets and a soft mattress, i was ok, but id not stop there again should i visit Gelsenkirchen

The hotel was great, clean and nice, the breakfast was good. The only downside is no a/c which is less comfortable in July.
We had a ventilator in the room that helped a bit.

Friends and I stayed 3 nights at this hotel. One of the nights the fire alarm went off at 530am due to a small cooking fire in the hotel kitchen. We had to evacuate using the stairwell from the 12th floor and the staff was very rude telling us to go back up to our rooms via the stairwell. Also, let me not forget to mention that there was no phone to call reception in our room. The hotel description states they have air conditioning but that is a lie. There is no air conditioning in the rooms only the halls and reception are fresh and cool. The rooms were hot and stuffy, so uncomfortable. Overall experience was horrible. Hotel prices were astronomically high for what we got. Not worth it.

Air Conditioning did not work and rooms were 30 degrees according to the thermostats. Drains were clogged and there was a smell of mildew. Paid an insane sum for our rooms due to the Taylor Swift concert. The staff did their best so no complaints there.

We were fighting 60000 Taylor swift fans for rooms. The hotel is definitely dated and needs renovation. The restaurant and lobby were very nostalgic and seemed as if time had stopped in the 50s. A positive was breakfast, the food was good, plates were clean and had lots of options.Overall for the city and the surge in prices I can’t complain, but would not recommend this hotel unless you were in a pinch.

The hotel needs a re fit. The description should be better than that. Facilities ok. Rooms need a real lift

Hotel was fine and staff were friendly but the rooms were incredibly hot with no way to turn the heating down. Had to sleep with balcony door open.

Looks like there have not been any updatesfor decades. Rooms are a good size, plenty of storage with balcony and walking distance to town. Furniture is dated, carpets dirty and baths in need of updating. If you have a car, you’ll pay 10Euro/day and good luck finding a parking spot. We were there 10 days and the only time our bedding was changed was the day I stripped the duvet and pillow cases. My husband did not strip his and you guessed it, his 8 day old bedding was left on. Dirty coffee cups were not exchanged until we called down for fresh ones. We had to ask for additional packs of coffee almost daily. Internet is so slow, we were unable to message pictures. This hotel used to be a first choice but it has gone downhill. The bar staff is very friendly and accommodating. Drinks are good.
The Maritim in Köln is still beautiful and a 4 star hotel. The Maritim in Gelsenkirchen is a 2+.
