Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Essen

Michael's beautiful house was just right for our family time over Easter, and the garden was also perfect for the Easter Bunny. We found the kitchen, bathrooms and fireplace particularly luxurious. We liked Zons very much, especially the old part of town. Communication with Michael was great, he was always quick to reach and very friendly, a really great host.

A very nicely decorated, listed cottage in a former workers' settlement, we felt very welcome.

We had a wonderful weekend in Scheel. The apartment is very cozily furnished and super equipped - high praise to the hosts. Communication was easy and fast. Everything is great and highly recommended. 😊👍🏼

Jula and Werner are great hosts. I felt very comfortable.

We were 4 people, and we had a lot of fun. The place was squeaky clean, and the scenery was beautiful, just as advertised. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed. We had a great time and will definitely visit again!

If you’re looking for a space that feels more like an inspiring art gallery than just another Airbnb, this is it. The industrial style gives it this raw, authentic vibe — think exposed brick, high ceilings, and cool steel accents — but it’s the creativity woven into every corner that really makes it special. Every wall and surface seems to tell a story. There’s art everywhere: bold canvases, quirky sculptures, unexpected little installations that make you stop and smile. It’s the kind of place that invites you to slow down, look around, and actually feel something. You can tell the hosts have a true passion for art design, creativity and for family values. A true little jewel the place, the people that own and take care of it is!

Everything was a wonderful fit, communication was straightforward and the apartment very clean.

We were two couples staying for two nights and the whole house suited our needs very well. The house is a little bit rural, but it is still close major cities (Frankfurt, Cologne, etc.). It is a very charming house and looks as it appears in the pictures.

Fantastic host, place was very clean and easy to find. Easy to get into town and Henriette was a great host.

I had booked for 4 people. Communication was super easy. Very quick feedback. I got all the information about parking. Everything worked out well with the apartment. Nice, clean and tidy. Easy to recommend!

Great modern place with lots of space. Car can be parked in the garage. Kitchen and bathroom are like new. Hosts are super welcoming and accommodating. I saved this place under my favorites and can absolutely recommend it.

Very nice and clean place! the balcony was my personal favourite. also very close to the main train station!

In short: A feel-good oasis...totally quiet, everything that is important, well connected...nice contact... I can only recommend it!

Nice little apartment, everything you need! Clear recommendation 👍

Ute is very nice, the apartment is in a good location between CCD and the city center, well equipped. The fridge is fully stocked with food. Thanks!

maurice's house despite being an old house with many years old is still well maintained and you immediately go home. Maurice was always available with his quick responses and clear directions. the house is just a few minutes' walk from the metro stop in a convenient location and in a quiet neighborhood.

An excellent apartment. Suited us perfectly as a base to visit Gelsenkirchen for the football! Metin is the perfect host!

we spend a week with our 3 Kids at the flat. İt was huge enough so everyone had they're privacy. beds and bathtoom was very clean and the kitchen was very well equipped. (Thanks for all the coffee by the way). İt has a large terrace wich is a fun when you have the sun. The flat is near the road but it was very very quit.We had an electric car and could use the wall box to charge it for a fair price which was a big advantage for us. We got always very quick response from Emil when we had a question. Would definitely recommend Emils flat and be glad to stay again.

This was by far the best experience I've had on any place on the system. highly recommended.

Been here for the second time. Always happy to come back!

It was absolutely worth it.

Impeccable accommodation in a quiet area. Very friendly host. Gladly come back.

Very comfortable stay at Kathi and Marcel‘s place. The apartment looks just like the photos in the listing. The place is clean and comfortable. Perfect place to stay if coming by car.

Comfortable flat for a great stay in Düsseldorf. The place is clean with a lovely terrasse.
