Best rooms
Request a room on a high floor (5th floor or above) to minimize potential street noise from Hagenstraße, a relatively busy road in Gelsenkirchen. Consider rooms with a city view to make the most of the city's skyline.
Request rooms on the higher floors (above 3) to minimize street noise from Leithestraße, which can be busy due to its location in the city. Additionally, floors with rooms ending in 01, 02, or 03 are likely to have easier access to the lift, making it more convenient for guests.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the lift (elevator) as the hotel has 5 floors, and the lift is likely to be in use frequently, potentially causing noise disruptions. Additionally, rooms near the service entrance might be subject to occasional delivery noise.
Avoid rooms on the first floor (01), as they may be closer to the service entrance and potentially more prone to noise from staff and deliveries.
