I stayed only one night at this hotel for business. Hotel is next to the beautiful lake in Hamburg, only 15 minutes walk to University of Hamburg, 20 minutes to city centre and 15 minutes walk to the Hamburg HBF. It is a beautiful building but it shows the age inside, particular the ground floor. check in and check out... More

Hotel is located about 20-30 minutes walking from the city center. Public transport is about 400 m away and is limited. As far as I could figure out only bus 109 stops here and it is not running on Sundays or late in the evening... Consider this if you like to go out in the city... Rooms are clean and... More

Dear guest Thank you very much for your detailed report. We can certainly understand that you do not like to pay extra for every service you require. Since not every guest has the same desires and needs and is willing to pay a correspondingly higher room rate we decided to create a room rate as slim and attractive as possible... More

Stayed 3 nights in this hotel, pretty decent room, others of my group had a more spacious room. Good bed and bathroom. Breakfast is plenty to choose from with a great view on the lake. Congress hall was only 5-10 minutes walk. Would stay here again for a next meting

Nice location in Hamburg down by the lake. Hotel is imposing but it is not quiet pressing the 5 star button. My room was on the 5th floor, it was a tad dated and the bed was appalling. Every time you move in the bed it upsets the other person. It was a large bed but the springing and mattress... More

Good basic hotel. Hotel is trying to get your money in every moment if they can. Outdated. No WLAN in the room. Only cable and you have to pay EXTRA even for that! If you go to sauna you have to pay extra etc. etc. There are lot of good hotels in Hamburg.

While this hotel is rather OK, it is definitely not a 5* hotel. I stayed there for one night in March as my usual hotel was fully booked. Firstly the hotel feels outdated (which you easily notice already in the reception area: try the computers there!).
