Get to know us:this is our team
The warm atmosphere, the friendly, familiar tone – on the one hand, this is typical for the people in Essen. On the other hand: at the Hotel Maximilians this is also due to the fact that our team “maximilialen” enjoys their work. And the happier our guests are, the bigger it gets.
