We had a suite with a wonderful skyline view on the top floor of the hotel. The room was spacious, clean, and modern. Nice breakfast. Excellent location near the train station and walkable distance for most attractions of the city. Highly recommend booking a top floor suite at this hotel.

I was doing the Ironman in Hamburg. The hotel was super clean and the staff were amazing however its opposite a casino and the rooms facing the casino are very loud with music. So you have to have the window shut. And there is no aircon so super hot.

German Unity Day parkrun trip

The hotel was ideally placed for exploring the city. The room was on the 6th floor and was quiet and comfortable. Breakfast was included in the rate and the vegan food choices were good. The Reception staff were welcoming and helpful. I would definitely stay again.

Stephen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel was lovely and in a great location. It was very close to restaurants and shops. It was an older hotel so the room furnishings were older. The bathroom was remodeled. The breakfast and lounge area were nice. Breakfast offered a variety of items and was very good. If you enjoy a more traditional hotel , I would recommend it. The staff were very courteous and professional.

Good hotel in the center city . Convenient and walkable to all major attractions. Did not like the check in process . They could not find my reservation for a while . Not pleasant . Rooms are nice and clean. Sofa had stains on it .
Gelana, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent value for money. My room was an older style single, but perfectly adequate for a 3 night stay. Good location, near Alster lakes (great for a stroll/run) and beautiful Planten un Blomen park. Rathaus about 1/2 mile. Breakfast and cleaning staff efficient and friendly. Poor WiFi. Laeiszhalle also within easy walking distance, where I attended a concert. Would use again.

I left behind a valuable object, and when I realized it, I immediately emailed the Alster to arrange to have it sent to me at a later destination. When I arrived, it was waiting for me!

Larm

Dejligt ophold - men vi var dog meget generet af larm fra lastbiler fra tidligt om morgenen ca 4.30. Meget levering og renovation og de arbejdede med tændte motorer i flere timer. Sørg for ikke at få værelse til bagsiden ad hotellet.
