Hotels near St. Stephan-Kirche - Ev.-Luth. Kirchengemeinde St. Stephan in Wandsbek-Gartenstadt, Hamburg

This is from an American perspective. I found the room rather small - with a Queen bed being the largest bed size, and not much room for anything else in the room. The bathroom was adequate enough - no major complaints there. The bedding (including pillows) was not up to Marriott standards in my opinion. The A/C was a joke. It did not matter what temp or setting I used - it was always the same temperature. I had to open/close the window to adjust the room temp. The TV was a decent size, but they only had 3 English channels - BBC/CNN/CNBC. So no English entertainment channels. The only other option was Youtube channel - to watch video clips. No Netflix or other apps where you can sign in with your own account. Also - no closet/no drawers/no coffee maker/no mini-fridge/no ice bucket nor ice machine. This hotel is also not around much. There is a supermarket within walking distance, but there are some shady people along the way. Also a couple of random restaurants near the market - but not for a decent meal. You would need to walk about a mile to get to some decent places to eat. The breakfast was good with lots of options. And the best part of this hotel was the staff. They were all very friendly and always eager to assist.

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.

Stayed in a single room, then switched to a 6 man dorm on the final night as it was Sunday and was expecting it to be very quiet. The single rooms are spartan and there is not even a chair, just some little stuffed stool. The issue in Hamburg is that accomdation is expensive in the city. For the same money, you could stay at a very nice 3 star hotel in many European cities! The 6 man dorm seemed quiet and ok, and then I noticed the issues. There were beer stains on the floor that acted as adhesive for my shoes. Crumbs and discarded sweet rappers in and around the bed. I had the room to myself so didn't complain. Settled for a decent night's rest. That's when someone came in at midnight (Sunday) and loudly stomped around, turning on all of the lights. They then took a shower and took their merry time settling into bed... For the price the rooms are not up to scratch. However, there aren't many ”cheaper” alternatives in Hamburg and the hostel (that charges hotel prices) know this. The check-in service was tedious and there's a queue at check in time. When I switched rooms to the 6 man dorm I said I wanted an early checkin to the that room if possible, and on the quiet side of the building (non motorway). They said no problem. Then, when I went to the room, it was of course on the noisy side. Went back and had to wait a couple hours longer before I could access the quieter room that I had asked for. The customer service is not great. They'll ask for your booking number even after you tell them your name. I did not feel like digging around for the number so I said my name and they searched for it (much to their distain probably).

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.

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!!

We booked this hotel via Amoma. Com as it stated that this hotel had large family rooms, pets were welcome and that the rooms had air-conditioning. All not true. We were asked to pay an additional 30 euros for our third child. We had also booked a quiet room but faced the very noisy street. The room was extraordinaryly hot and staff did not provide us with a fan. The room was small but reasonably clean. No tea or coffee making facilities. The bathroom was ok but hairdryer did not work. Interiors quite tired. The biggest problem with this hotel is the location. It is the local druggie hang out. We saw people using drugs in the street right outside the hotel and it was clear that this is not a safe area. The riot police attended several incidents during our stay and made several arrests. **********s operate in this area too. We would not recommend to stay here and it certainly was not even good value for money.

STAY AWAY. I am a very fair minded traveler. I was making a trip to Hamburg in August, so I knew I should plan for dealing with potential hot weather. I did extensive searching, including on TripAdvisor, specifically filter for the room having air conditioning. Nyce came up in the top of every search and clearing listed ”air conditioning” as one of their amenities. So I made a reservation and prepaid per their policy At the actual hotel [yes, on a hot weather day] when I entered the room there was NO A/C and mor even a fan. Only one window that could be cracked open approximately 6 inches. The room was a suana. When I talked with the reception desk the staff had harsh attitude and demanded to see where air conditioning had been promised. I showed them multiple screens, but their response was ”Google lies all the time”. I even offered to accept a partial refund [one of the two prepaid nights], but that was met with an even worse attitude. I left for another hotel. The Courtyard By Marriott about 5 minutes away was newly constructed, extremely helpful reception staff , and FULLY AIR CONDITIONED. The reception even told me ”Please go check the room, we want you to completely comfortable”. The room was at beautiful and yreat quality...and was almost the exact same price as the single room at Nyce A day later I received an email from Ntce site management. They request screenshots and I supplied, bit had the same dismissive ”blame the customer” and stated they would make no refund at all. Do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY from this property, you simply cannot trust them.

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.

As I travel very frequently for leisure and business I have a broad frame of reference. This hotel has positively surprised me. Many hotels still use Covid as an excuse to strip down their service. Not this one: extremely friendly, helpful and anticipating reception staff (big compliment and thank you to Uwe Ahlburg at the reception - one of a kind customer oriented top professional - really OUTSTANDING). You get water, slippers and full amenities in your room. They offered a second bottle at check in just in case that you dont have to walk down again. Hotel still offers desinfection everywhere. Room is clean and was desinfected. Beds are very comfy, room not huge but big enough, bathroom has sufficient space to deposite all items, light is good and magnifying mirror is effective. Only item to improve is the coffee was only decaf and not sufficient milk powder and I could hear a bit from other guest through connection door. Check in and out very effective. Asked for a taxi in a hurry and staff walked over for me to get it as fast as possible. Its not a luxury 5 Star super fancy place but if back in HH I’d still prefer it over those as in the end service makes the difference and not the price / look of the furniture. Excellent value for money.

Hostel locates in red light street , so you are so close to everything. But not eligible for family
