How to find a hotel in Essen
The city centre near the main station and Kettwiger Straße is the most practical base, close to shopping and transport links across the Ruhr area; the Zollverein industrial complex, a UNESCO World Heritage site, sits a short tram ride away. Trade fairs at the Messe Essen can fill hotels and raise rates for several days at a time.
Best time to visit: Spring and autumn for mild weather; check the trade fair calendar before booking to avoid peak pricing.
