Hotels Near Gerhart Hauptmann Square in Hamburg

A very welcoming hotel in a heart of Hamburg city. Staff were friendly, efficient and very helpful. The room was beautiful, very comfortable, and the buffet breakfast was hugely varied and very enjoyable.

This is in general a good hotel, but with room for improvement. The location in the old warehouse district is excellent, and the rooms are well appointed and comfortable, with the exception of the towels, which are quite small and poor quality, not in any way in keeping with the standard of the hotel. The staff were reasonably efficient, but cold and unfriendly. Either it is a bad place to work, or they need some serious training in hospitality. We never tried the food as the one night we wanted to eat the restaurant was closed due to staff shortages. It was expensive, but I think that was in some considerable part due to our stay coinciding with a major exhibition, making accommodation scarce across the city I would probably go back again as the excellent location offsets the poor points, just.

Fantastic service from Paulina. She checked me into the hotel efficiently. Told me all about the services offered by the hotel. She was friendly and helpful. I had asked her to help me pay a traffic ticket that was written in German. She read the ticket, translated and helped me figure out how to pay it. Thank you. The hotel was under renovation but the room was very nice. It was quiet and had a nice view of the canal. The location is very central-walking distance to most sites and to the shopping areas. Would definitely stay here again.

I stayed in ”Alte Wache” hotel 2 nights for working reasons, arriving by taxi from the apt. The kindness, courtesy and service efficiency of the gentleman and the lady at the reception deserve a top rate. They both are a great example of care and warm hospitality, making every guest feel really welcomed. The lobby is nice in its old fashion style, the double room is spacious, perfectly clean and silent; breakfast was very good, and much better than some 4stars hotel: the tea blend selections very appreciated and the fresh flower on the tables a lovely, precious gift!! 2 small suggestions: 1) the morning waitress should be a little bit more smilying; 2) do not accomodate a person alone in a dinner table for 6. The hotel is also extremely close to city center (walking distance), so I really reccomend it!!

I booked this lovely property with miles, but cash rates are typically very reasonable. I enjoyed my stay greatly. The atmosphere felt fresh and new (as if the hotel had been recently constructed), the location is within walking distance to the subway station and Miniatur Wunderland, and the service is very kind and helpful. Thinking back on it, I hope I didn’t sound too entitled when I was asking every two hours if there was a room available for early check-in (I hadn’t slept the night before!). The staff were so patient and accommodating. I loved them. The rooms were everything I needed for a one-night stay, and then some. My request for a courtyard-facing room was granted, and I slept with the utmost bliss. Cleanliness was apparent throughout the room and lobby areas. The space I was given was large, comfy, and workable for someone in an electric wheelchair. I shall leave by mentioning one thing I wasn’t aware of—the holiday of Pentecost is apparently a huge thing in Germany. While this brought awesome advantages like zero traffic and a feeling as if Hamburg was a ghost town I had to myself for a day, it also meant the on-site restaurant was closed (and most other restaurants). Not complaining—just FYI if you’re visiting in early June! Thanks for the best stay I could ever ask for!

Sometimes we are in hotels where you somehow get a strange feeling right from the moment you check in. You don't feel comfortable and welcome. The Courtyard Hamburg City is one of them. It started at the reception during our very early check-in. The staff member told us in a supercilious manner that we had received an upgrade. But the ”better” rooms had not yet been cleaned. But because we were getting an upgrade, it would certainly be worth waiting for the room. Our question about when we could expect the room was only answered with the statement that the actual check-in was at 3 pm. We could go into town in the meantime, it's not far and we shouldn't come back too early - 3 pm. We could leave our luggage at the hotel. There is still room for improvement! And so there were a few similar little things during our stay. None of them big issues. But just a lot of little things where you keep asking yourself: ”Why? Why don't they just do it better?” The stay ended as it had begun. After our online check-out, we discovered that the bill was not correct. However, this was corrected immediately after a complaint by e-mail. No comment. Without apology or the like. A word about breakfast, as there were many comments on this: The restaurant in the hotel is run by an outside company. This is not noticeable at first glance. Nevertheless, this constellation has disadvantages. For example, the restaurant is closed one day a week (breakfast is of course available all week). Is that a good thing for a hotel? That's something everyone has to decide for themselves. But now to breakfast: Cost: 25 Euros, if not already included in the room rate. The breakfast is extensive. Nevertheless, there are some things that are not there. For example, freshly prepared egg dishes. Here, you are treated to prefabricated fried eggs, scrambled eggs and the like, some of which look rather adventurous. There are also no pencakes or waffles. On the other hand, there is a large vegetarian/vegan corner. Most of the dishes are of very high quality, often even organic or Demeter. The service is prompt, attentive and friendly. The ambience in the restaurant is also quite good. Is the breakfast now worth its 25 euros? Yes, because the restaurant is run by a third party and the operator also has to earn money. Yes, because the ingredients are of very high quality. Yes, because the selection is quite large. No, because certain things such as egg dishes prepared on site are missing. No, because the selection is large, but not outstanding. In our opinion, a price of 19 euros would suit the breakfast better.

Super service, only the drinking machines were cold/heat had problems, but this may be because not so many guests were expected. There could still be work on it. The employees have been curved to meet the guest. Praise the brave rank. If we travel back to Hamburg, we will check in back to this hotel. Oh, what to mention: Super connection to S1 and U3, which drive in all directions

The check-in service went without problems and quickly we received our room. The staff is premature and friendly. The room was also clean. And also offers enough room for clothes. The bathroom is small, but it is enough for shower and tooth cleaning. We would have booked breakfast if we didn't have to leave so early. For a weekend trip, this hotel is recommended.

This is one of the better hotels I've ever stayed: modern and tidy room, well equipped fitness, excellent wellness area (2 saunas and 1 steam bath) and very good food. It's located in an industrial neighbourhood, but it's quiet at night and easy to reach the highway.
