September 2017
I have recently tried two hotels in two different locations in Hamburg. In winter we stayed at the iconic Kempinski Hotel Atlantic (now part of the Autograph Collection), which is located by the Alster Lake in the heart of the city. Close to the city’s Townhall and the large inner-city shopping area. This hotel is an institution in the city, a typical Grand Hotel with a long-standing history. Elegant and classic in style and a true five-star luxury hotel.
The other hotel I stayed at is the 25hours Hotel in Harbour City. This property is very different from the Kempinski but another great option to stay. It is called the 25Hours Hotel HafenCity and is a new and modern kind of lifestyle hotel. Located in the newly established part of the city by the Elbe river and within Hamburg´s large harbour. The hotel combines industrial chic with modern and maritime elements. A great design concept in a new location where you can see the big ships and the port activities from your room and while walking around the area. Two very different hotels which I both liked and can wholeheartedly recommend for future Hamburg visits.
