Hotels near Bahnhof Altona, Hamburg

The hotel is large and the lobby is stylish, but there are too many conference guests staying, and breakfast needs to be queued. The experience is not very good. When booking, the room away from the elevator was specially noted. When Checkin, the room next to the elevator was still given. The elevator sound was very noisy. Fortunately, the front desk agreed to change rooms. Room facilities are acceptable, two bottles of mineral water are given. The shower and bathtub are integrated, I personally don't like it very much. Rich variety of breakfast

Great value for money close to the Zoo.. even though it was perhaps not a topnotch hotel, we thought we got good value for money with spacious and clean rooms and easy access to parking (which is not a given in Hamburg)… breakfast was ok as well :-)

This was my first visit to Hamburg with a friend as a short city break, coming from the UK. This hotel was perfect to meet our needs which was to have a) a good location, b) a comfortable room, and c) a decent breakfast. I would recommend the hotel for other tourists. ROOM: Neat and tidy with comfortable beds. The bathroom was also of a good standard. 5/5 LOCATION: Located a 5 minutes walk away from the main train station and a 10-15 minutes walk from the main square and town with bars and restaurants. 5/5 BREAKFAST: A nice selection of different continental offerings, very modern and clean environment too. 5/5 SERVICE: Very smooth check in process with room cards working as expected. We were even provided with a free pass for ALL Hamburg buses and trains (U and S). This was an unexpected benefit which meant the trip back to the airport was covered. Staff were helpful and no issues to mention 5/5 If you are looking for a well located place to stay as a B&B in Hamburg, this hotel is a good option.

The beautiful, large lobby, which reflects the long history of the hotel is hugely impressive whilst the rooms are stylishly modern. My room had plenty of room for storage (often lacking in many hotels), a very comfortable double bed and an immaculate, well designed large bathroom. Breakfast offerings were exceptional and it was good (and rare) to be able to have items cooked to order. The lobby cafe/bar was pleasant but service was disappointingly slow. Although these are difficult times due to the pandemic, it was a great shame that the restaurant and bar were both closed. Given that most other hospitality premises had reopened in Hamburg, I found it odd that the hotel had not been able to open them and had not publicised that fact more openly on their website.

Great location. Easy to get around and get back to the place at night. If you're a light sleeper I wouldn't recommend the shared rooms, people coming back late at night, the doors close quite loudly. My only complaint is that I received a keycard to the wrong room and walked right into a private suite.. Nobody was there thankfully and I just walked right out, but if I were staying in a private room I would hate to think that strangers could just walk into my room where all my belongings are lying around. Otherwise clean and quite a cool environment.

Elevator still doesn’t work if anyone is wondering. We liked the place itself. Apartment was pretty basic but clean. Nothing much about the place itself to say or complain about. The location is another story. It’s close to the Hauptbahnhof (central station) where a lot of unfortunate down and out people hang around. As we were walking to the hotel at around nine pm someone with drug and/or psychiatric problems approached us and followed us to the door, talking in German the whole time. In the doorway two guys were sitting and offered us drugs but they were very polite and chill about it. All in all, an alright place, but maybe great for families (which isn’t the hotel’s fault).

Nefasto, la primera mañana al despertar veo sangre en la sabanas sin saber de donde procedía, aviso a limpieza y hacen la habitación, pero no me dicen nada, ese día ya tengo picaduras y ronchas en las piernas , espalda y cuello, cual es mi sorpresa cuando en la noche un pequeño animal caminando por la almohada, lo aplasto y esta lleno de sangre... chinches en la cama!!!! aviso en recepción no tienen hojas de reclamación ... ese día ya dejo el hotel. cuando envío reclamación al email su respuesta es ”Pedimos disculpas por las molestias. Tenga en cuenta que las chinches no son un problema de salud y, lamentablemente, pueden aparecer en los mejores hoteles independientemente del precio y la clasificación de estrellas... bla bla bla... y tan a gusto se han quedado.

This is an absolutely stunning hostel. The single cabins and double cabins are small, but very comfortable. There is more than enough toileting and showering facilities for everyone, and you always have plenty of privacy. The staff are super helpful and welcoming. The menu and drinks are great. The cabins come with plenty of built-in wireless charging, usb ports, built-in Bluetooth speakers and electricity points. Large and smaller towel per person, along with a bathrobe. There are plenty of shops, restaurants, bars, and clubs all within a few minutes walk. 5 minute walk to central Hamburg train station for the airport and all other locations. I am very impressed with this hostel and would recommend it highly.

All in all the hotel is quite good, unfortunately some shortcomings put it to average for us. Upon check in, was asked at the reception whether we were Covid vaccinated 2 or 3 times. The certificate itself was barely looked at and no QR code scan was done. During our 3 nights stay, this was correctly done when entering Restaurant for breakfast, so why not at first contact point Reception? Upon entering our room (336), immediately noticed that it was rather cold inside. Normal if a window is open and aircon set at lowest level… Noticed as well that some empty shopping paper bags and some used brochures had most probably been forgotten during cleaning. In fact the bags were rather big and could not be overseen… Worse however were 2 used plastic cups in the bathroom, once again impossible to oversee them! The room itself was quite ok if you do not consider some stains on carpet and chair, however the very small wardrobe is kind of bad joke. ONE small storage compartment for a double room and no other storage possibilities in the room is far from standard! Breakfast on Sunday morning was rather chaotic with a completely full restaurant. Why not attribute time slots in order to avoid such a situation? This is done in some hotels and is rather helpful. On the day of our departure, somebody knocked at our room door at 08.45 am. Quite astonished that it was the cleaning lady who asked at what time we would leave... Had never experienced such acting in any other hotel also considering the check-out time of 11.00 am

OK - it's still the furniture I knew from the time when it was the Forum Hotel. And that's very long ago. But in autumn the renovation is supposed to go. The reception was very friendly. It's been really fun. I have a beautiful room with beautiful views of the city. Unfortunately, very much is built so that you may not be able to look at the elbe at all next time. Unfortunately. This time there was even a process that was close. Until the water pressure (15th floor) the shower was all right. But this is natural and there was no standard. I was surprised at breakfast. Besides the friendly staff, which quickly cleaned, the offer was very versatile. I asked: the fricadels tasted as they did (burned apple pieces) and not for convenience. But you didn't want to make yourself with foreign pearls and thought it was convenience. But it was all very good. I will put the hotel more in my focus once I'm back in Hamburg.
