Hamburg Airport (HAM) serves Germany's gateway city, the country's second-largest and one of Europe's busiest ports. Hotels in Hamburg offer access to the spectacular Elbphilharmonie concert hall, the historic Speicherstadt warehouse district, the Reeperbahn entertainment quarter, and an extraordinary culinary scene.
Our Picks — Hamburg
Rotherbaum
A stunning circular tower on the Außenalster lake designed by Jan Störmer, offering panoramic lake views from most rooms, an exceptional spa, and a restaurant that is among Hamburg's finest. The Fontenay is the most architecturally significant luxury hotel to open in Germany in decades.
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.
St. Pauli
A visually arresting design hotel in a converted iron foundry in the St. Pauli district, with exposed structural steel, a dramatically lit lobby, and rooms that are among the city's most architecturally distinct. Close to the Reeperbahn and the most authentic Hamburg nightlife.
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.
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.
Hauptbahnhof
A magnificent 1910 Jugendstil hotel directly opposite the Hauptbahnhof, beautifully restored to its original Art Nouveau grandeur with a spectacular lobby, well-designed rooms, and a bar beneath original painted ceilings. Among the best-value heritage hotels in any major German city.
