Welcome
Parkhotel Bochum

Bochum's history dates back to the 9th century when Charlemagne established a royal court at the crossroads of two major trade routes. The city received its charter in 1298 and again in 1321, remaining a modest agricultural town until the mid-19th century. It then transformed into an industrial hub, thriving with iron, coal, and steel industries. The German Mining Museum, a key attraction, vividly narrates Bochum's mining and steelmaking heritage, with its iconic winding tower offering panoramic views of the city.

Our hotel is a 15-minute walk from Bochum's city centre. Located near Stadtpark, the zoo, the football stadium, the Starlight Express musical, and the convention centre, it features contemporary furnishings in stylishly designed rooms, providing a blend of comfort and convenience. Thanks to excellent transportation connections to the entire Ruhr area, you can quickly and easily reach its attractions.

Our VIU restaurant offers a diverse menu featuring creative local cuisine with a French twist, expertly perfected by Chef Björn Reckeweg. The hotel boasts sophisticated interiors and versatile conference facilities, making it an ideal choice for both business events and leisure stays.
