Transforming from an industrial hub to an exciting cultural city, it’s easy to see why Essen was named European Capital of Culture back in 2010. Our Premier Inn Essen City Limbecker Platz hotel is in the perfect spot for getting around – just a two-minute walk from Berliner Platz underground station and a 15-minute walk from the Hauptbahnhof. Plus, if you’re visiting Essen on business, you’ll be within easy reach of the city’s convention centres, and only a 15-minute walk from the Thyssen Krupp Business Park. After a busy day, you can look forward to a tasty meal in our Lounge restaurant before enjoying a great night’s sleep on a super-comfy bed.

Müllers auf der Rü

Seasonal Cuisine, Farm to table

€€€

Nelson Müller's fine dining restaurant, Schote, may have moved to Bergisch Gladbach, but this cherished Essen-based establishment at Rüttenscheider Stern U-Bahn station has stayed put. This is a market hall-style brasserie integrated into a shopping arcade. Sitting at high tables, diners tuck into delicious dishes ranging from currywurst to turbot, prepared in the centrally positioned open kitchen. Friendly service. Tip for motorists: public multi-storey car park around the corner.
