Billy
I recently had a wonderful stay at this luxurious hotel. The location was fantastic, making it easy for me to explore the surrounding area. There were plenty of supermarkets and restaurants nearby, which was convenient since I had a car. It was great to be able to stay and relax away from the busy and expensive city centers. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. The room was well-equipped, clean, and comfortable. I especially loved the excellent bed and the fact that the window could be opened.
My experience at this hotel was exceptional. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Very good breakfast with a large selection (also to be expected for the price). I find room request for access to breakfast very good. Clean and well soundproofed rooms (there was a construction site in front of the hotel of which we heard absolutely nothing). Many parking possibilities, during a game in the Veltinsarena (which is right next door) this might look different. Friendly staff. Lifts are fast and always free.
The fact that the WLAN in the rooms is fee-based (2.5 or 9.5 €/day) does not correspond to a 4-star hotel in 2019, and the televisions are also not quite up to date (rather computer screens). On one day the dishes were cleared a bit over-motivated during breakfast. While getting muesli, the glasses were already taken away while others were still sitting at the table (not bad, you take new glasses). The following day there was nothing to notice. The table was cleared after we got up.

Amazing location near the Veltins Arena for soccer matches or concerts. The hotel's med-cuisine restaurant is a highlight, offering delicious food. Good connections to major traffic routes make it convenient for exploring the area. I highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel is a pretty normal mid/high level business one, with all the facilities you'd normally expect, and generally high standards. It's nice and quiet due to its isolated location (when there's no sport on), and if you have a car, it's quite convenient. Breakfast and restaurant selection is good, but not cheap. Staff are friendly and efficient. Its location at the Veltins-Arena makes it a good choice for sports events.
The hotel is quite remote from Gelsenkirchen city centre, and is in a major sports venue about 10 minutes taxi drive from town. There is a tram (No. 302) that runs from the main station U-bahn area to the arena in about 15 mins, and then it's a five minute walk from the tram stop to the hotel front door. It's easy enough, but you need to research it in advance. Breakfast is expensive, although a good standard. WiFi is charged at around €12.50/day. Minibar isn't stocked, and the guest uses a 'help yourself' small walk-in room in the lobby, which is then charged to the room.

Typical Marriott chain. Nice and clean. On-site parking, garage or free. On-site restaurant. Friendly and helpful staff. Walking distance to stadium. Well-located for Schalke stadium, Gelsenkirchen, and Bochum. Extensive breakfast, good dinner options. Small fitness suite with sauna and steam room. Ice on every corridor. No minibar, but lobby has a market. Quiet, comfortable rooms. Great breakfast, good dinners. Staff always helpful.

Ideal location only for the stadium
Staff not helpful almost rude at times with the exception of one or two waitresses and a cleaning lady. Up prices for tourists and football fans on food. Their security was extremely rude and rough. I had no dealings directly with them but I seen it and heard it. Management not bothered about unhappy guests. I had a fall in the bathroom and they didn't want to know

Excellent bed, room well equipped and clean, window can be opened, good parking facilities. Easily reachable from the motorway.
The minibar is empty. The hotel policy is that guests go to the entrance hall and get what they need to fill up the minibar from a little shop. Not very convenient when you discover this only the moment you're ready to go to bed.

Our stay in this hotel was fantastic! We were delighted to find out that it is located right by the Schalke 04 Veltins Arena soccer stadium. It was perfect for us as we attended a match during our stay. The rooms were well furnished and the bed was super comfortable. The breakfast buffet was great with a wide variety of dishes to choose from. There’s also a 24-hour gym and a sauna which were amazing facilities.
The service at the restaurant was quite slow, and the menu could use some improvements as it wasn’t very varied.
