Advantages
Friendly staffDisadvantages
Toilets not cleanTrain overall not in good conditionI recently travelled from Essen to Hanover with my partner on the Deutsche Bahn ICE.
The staff were extremely friendly, which we liked very much. The power sockets at the seats were functional.
Unfortunately, the train was not very clean overall. Food leftovers on the floor and also the toilets were not very pleasant. Therefore, not a really nice experience.
Advantages
Train arrived on timeTrain was cleanDisadvantages
Unpleasant fellow travellersSome time ago, I took the Deutsche Bahn ICE from Essen to Hanover on business.
The train pulled into the station on time and I arrived at my destination on time.
Overall, the train was clean and the seats were comfortable.
What bothered me a little were the somewhat unpleasant fellow passengers.
The staff were friendly so far, but not outstanding. The sockets for charging my laptop were functional.
Advantages
Train was on timeDisadvantages
The train was overcrowdedSockets not accessibleI recently took the Deutsche Bahn train from Essen to Hanover. The train was on time and I arrived in Hanover at the specified time. Unfortunately, the journey was not very pleasant. For most of the journey, the train was very busy and the people were not very pleasant. At least there was still room for my luggage and the seat was ok. Unfortunately, the staff was also a bit tense. This could definitely be better.
Advantages
Air-conditionedSocketDisadvantages
FullDelayNo working wifiThe ICE I took from Essen to Hannover Hbf had wifi, but it didn't seem to work as I couldn't open a single website. Another negative aspect of the journey was the fact that the train was far too full, so I had to sit on the floor next to a door. Furthermore, I was frustrated by the fact that at least 2 times we were standing on open track, as there didn't seem to be some trains in front of us that were taking up too much of a section of track. This aspect and the fact that there was a storm over Germany probably caused the delay of almost an hour. The only positive aspect of the journey that remains in my memory is the fact that the train was pleasantly air-conditioned and clean.
Advantages
Cheap ticketCheap seatsAdditional seat bookableDisadvantages
This time noThe journey from Essen to Hanover was absolutely satisfactory and is highly recommended. The ticket is very cheap and you arrive at your destination quickly as there were no delays. The seats are already very cramped, so I book the next seat in addition to my seat and can then travel undisturbed with enough space. The journey is therefore relaxed. There were no noisy passengers and the journey was quiet. The train was clean and well ventilated. The staff were friendly and I am satisfied with everything so far. I would gladly travel again.
Advantages
wifiComfortableReservationDisadvantages
NoneMy nephew often travels by train through his vocational school, where he has to cover long distances. We made the reservation online without any problems. The advantage here with the ICE is that you also have wifi and a power socket in 2nd class. What's more, the reservation means you definitely have a seat. That makes the journey more pleasant. You also have the option of ordering something to eat in the on-board restaurant.
