Love this Hotel and its staff, you can see they have a process for checking-in your bags, they give you a tag with numbers specific to your bags and store them in a rather nice space. They're very professional. I've only used this place once and from there continued using it because I trust it a lot! I highly recommend it

Lockers were in a room just off reception area, you can choose between small med and Large lockers. We chose the large due to us having a suitcase and 3 7kg bags. Very secure as you get your own code for your locker. Simple pay for the locker online.

Luggage storage in and around Gelsenkirchen

Many travellers visiting Gelsenkirchen for a match or event find themselves with hours to fill and nowhere to leave a bag, since the city's holiday rentals rarely offer luggage storage.

The main station serves as the natural arrival point from Düsseldorf Airport, though the Veltins-Arena's strict rules leave no room for anything larger than a small handbag, so sorting storage before you travel is essential. The station's own rail connections make it the logical starting point for any storage decision. Gelsenkirchen sits in the heart of the central Ruhr area, making it a convenient base for exploring nearby Ruhr cities. Its location also makes Gelsenkirchen a practical stop for visitors attending trade fairs or business events in neighbouring cities. The city is best known for the Veltins-Arena, a modern multi-purpose stadium used for professional football as well as large-scale international concerts and events. With Stasher, you can store bags from €4.97 per bag per day at 10+ locations across Gelsenkirchen.

Arriving by train or plane with bags

Gelsenkirchen Hauptbahnhof handles around 30 daily long-distance trains (ICE, IC/EC, FLX) and roughly 300 regional and suburban connections, so it's the practical place to sort your bags before heading into the city. From Düsseldorf Airport, direct regional trains (RE 2 or RE 3) reach the Hauptbahnhof in about 35 minutes without a transfer. Münster/Osnabrück Airport is far less convenient — a bus to Münster Hauptbahnhof followed by an RE 42 train takes around 2 hours in total. Tram line 302 connects the city centre to the Buer district in about 20 minutes.

Veltins-Arena: bag rules and what to expect

Suitcases and backpacks are prohibited, and visitors cannot leave bags on site. If you're attending a match or event with anything larger, you'll need to arrange storage elsewhere before heading to the stadium. Stadium staff enforce the rule that only bags up to DIN A4 (21cm x 29.7cm) may be brought inside.

Gelsenkirchen's heritage as a former mining centre is still part of the city's identity alongside its famous football club, FC Schalke 04.
