About This Guide
Hamburg has embraced pet-friendly travel with open arms, and these hotels lead the pack. Whether you're traveling with a Great Dane or a Chihuahua, each property on our list has been vetted for genuine pet welcome — not just a grudging 'pets allowed' policy, but thoughtful amenities that make your companion feel as pampered as you. Our top pick, 25hours Hotel Hamburg HafenCity, stands out for its dedicated pet concierge service and custom pet beds. Hotel Wedina offers a particularly impressive pet menu, while Hotel Atlantic Kempinski Hamburg provides a private garden area perfect for morning walks. When choosing a pet-friendly hotel in Hamburg, location matters as much as pet policy. We've prioritised properties near parks, walking trails, and pet-friendly restaurants so you and your companion can explore together without constant taxi rides back to the hotel.

Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
HafenCity
An inventive, character-packed hotel in the harbour district with container-inspired interiors, a rooftop sauna with Elbe views, and a coffee bicycle delivery service. The 25hours brand at its best — genuinely fun, affordable, and perfectly located for the Elbphilharmonie.
St. Georg
Hamburg's celebrated literary hotel — a complex of connected houses around a garden in St. Georg where every room is dedicated to a different author (Haruki Murakami, Jonathan Franzen), with a library of signed editions. Beloved by writers and book-lovers worldwide.
St. Georg
The grand Edwardian dame of Hamburg, open since 1909 on the Außenalster with a white palatial facade, lavish Belle Époque interiors, and a history of hosting everyone from The Beatles to US presidents. Still the most prestigious address in the city for traditional luxury.
Altstadt
A contemporary Sofitel in a beautifully renovated Altstadt building with an elegant spa, a Michelin-starred restaurant (Lakeside), and rooms of refined French luxury positioned between the Rathaus and the Speicherstadt canal district.
Altstadt
A cleverly designed budget boutique where every room is self-contained with a small kitchen, making it ideal for longer stays and independent travellers. The central Altstadt location and well-thought-out interiors make it the best value all-rounder in the city.
Altstadt
A playful, well-designed Marriott Moxy in the Altstadt with compact modern rooms, a lively bar lobby concept, and a great central location at rates well below the market. One of the best mid-budget options in central Hamburg.
