Mercure Hotel Plaza Essen

Hotel for travellers looking for local and authentic experiences

Experience comfort and hospitality in the heart of the Ruhr region at the Mercure Hotel Plaza Essen. Our impressive modern hotel has an elegant atmosphere where business guests and tourists alike will feel at home. 7 categories of tastefully furnished rooms offer the highest level of comfort and invite you to relax. Thanks to its central location, you can easily reach Essen city center, cultural highlights and business districts in a short time.

What makes Essen fascinating is the starkness of the contrasting worlds; the Ruhr metropolis boasts imposing remains of the once-powerful heavy industries alongside many lively cultural locations. No wonder that Essen was crowned Capital of Culture.
