We were the group of 9 people for 9 days on FIBO exhibition so I can tell a lot about hotel. the obvious things are that hotel is brand new, with a lot of style, You just feel very good in those interiors. at first I thought it is more for young people, as the first day we came I felt a bit like in student house but in the good meaning of course, there was lot of young smiling people ( in neighborhood there was some concert at that day). The next day I saw a lot of business guests as well and even older people so whenever you wonder if this profile of hotel is suitable for you the answer is YES, all kind and all types of guest will feel comfortable in Moxy not only young people. There is no restaurant in the hotel but there is a bar open 24h where in case you can order even some pizzas at night so it is great. In same building next door there is high quality burgers restaurant, and just the next building 50 meters of walk there are stylish and tasty Asian and Italian restaurants with reasonable prices. we were 2 time each restaurant on business dinner. for me it was really helpful we did no need to take taxi after the whole day of hard work. the rooms with super comfortable bed all brand new.... THE BEST AND MOST IMPORTANT I left for the end. SUPER FIRENDLY AND SUPER HELPFULL Anna – front desk supervisor. That girl made our stay exceptional. I travel a lot and I never met so helpful person in any hotel. Gold medal for her. Starting from registration, rebooking, payments she helped me with that all. She helped us event with parking space outside the hotel as we had 3 bigger trucks. She took care of us for the whole period of time we were there. Basically the hotel motto is that client need to relax and do not worry about anything, they solve all your problems. I love the idea and for sure for next year we will come back to Moxy Mulheim – so good memories.

The location was fantastic: we could reach everything we wanted to see within a short walk, it was very close to the shopping street, and best of all, the Christmas market was just a few steps away. When we got tired, we could come back to the hotel, rest a bit, and then continue exploring the surroundings.

Fantastic stop off for one night. Location was really easy to reach from the Autobahn, and the prebooked secure parking was a bonus. For a budget hotel, the reception is well presented and the rooms are big, comfortable and great value. Made to feel welcome on arrival. Would highly recommend.
