I'm staying in this hotel every time I visit Hamburg, very friendly staff.
But unfortunately the good Hotel is let down by the area around the property (some streets around it feel unsafe and look dirty).

Great stay
We spent 4 nights here in a large room. Everything was good (the room, the cleaning, the location). The beds were a bit too hard, that my only criticism.

The hotel is nice and modern but in a rough neighborhood. The restaurant in 1st floor is also very nice and served good breakfast. My room was small so no space for a chair.

The hotel itself is excellent. Good for transport links and central location to see sights. Quite a poor area with many drug addicts but didn’t feel unsafe.

Good hotel, great reception staff, great Nespresso machine. Very clean. What let it down was the area the hotel is in, it didn’t feel safe at night.

Wonderful staff, spacious rooms, very clean!
Genuinely friendly and helpful staff who ensure you have a very pleasant stay.
Hi five to Lars for being so hospitable.
The cleanliness was top notch. Conveniently located.
Neighborhood loud and sketchy, but did not feel dangerous. The hotel is a nice refuge among the chaos outside.
Would definitely return!

Staff were friendly and the hotel had easy access to the main station.
My only downside was the lack of choice for restaurants and bars near by. But it was easy enough to use the subway to get to them.
