The hotel staff was fantastic! Especially the team in the restaurant. I was not very happy with the curtains/blinds in the room. Did not block out enough light, Which made it quite difficult to sleep after 5 am. Sleeping in was not an option. The hotels AC system was also down while I was there, which did not help my sleeping situation. Overall, hotel is nice. Location is amazing. The hotel team was the real highlight.

Staff at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. The hotel and the amenities were up to standards for the price. However, they made some shortcuts when tidying up the room so I have to knock them for that particular service. Other than that, stay was good.

Fantastic hotel, highly recommended and a great location to everything you want to see in Hamburg. Room was clean and well presented. Staff were very friendly and accommodating the moment we walked through the doors. Lovely pool and gym amenities. If you have a late flight they will let you stay an hour 3-6 hours for a fee but it's worth it if you don't want to carry your bags everywhere. Thanks for a great stay!
