Located conveniently near motorways, the Essential by Dorint Herford/Vlotho offers recently renovated bedrooms with complimentary Wi-Fi. The establishment boasts 200 free parking spaces, ensuring a hassle-free arrival. Rooms are praised for their spacious layout, and guests can indulge in the impressive gastronomic experience with options such as the pub and terrace. The wellness area, featuring a sauna, is a highlight for relaxation after a busy day.
While guests appreciate the clean rooms, proper breakfast, and friendly staff, some noted the beds to be small and mattresses uncomfortably hard. Despite this, the hotel receives commendation for its accommodating staff and well-appointed facilities. The on-site restaurant, Am Bonneberg, offers regional North Rhine-Westphalia cuisine, but some guests found the menu restricted and the restaurant meals expensive. Though the peaceful and spacious environment is a plus, guests mentioned the unexpected parking fee and extra charges for pets as downsides.
