Our Petul Team

One family. One mission. One team.

We are the Peters family: the "inventors" of the Petul Apart Hotels. Passionate residents of the Ruhr region and innovative mavericks. That's the only explanation for why we bought a 100-year-old, run-down house in 1999 and turned it into a very unique and very colorful hotel: the Hotel an der Zeche. 

What were we thinking back then? We wanted to share our fascination for the Ruhr region with others and give them the chance to get to know the region. And we wanted to give them a place to feel good – no matter if they are travelling for business or pleasure. Staying here should be comfortable, individual and uncomplicated. A concept that we have been able to implement successfully in 8 hotels in Essen and Bochum.  

To do this we need a great team: lots of people to think with us and hands help us. All of them would like to make your experience in the Ruhr region as unforgettable as possible. That's why we are here for you around the clock – sometimes in the foreground, sometimes in the background.

We are looking forward to welcoming you ...

Or, to say it with the typical German miner's greeting, "Glück auf"!

Yours,
The Peters Family and the whole Petul team
