Small Hotels Hamburg – Port City and Metropolis

Hamburg can without doubt be called one of the most beautiful cities in Germany. It’s the unique atmosphere of the Port of Hamburg – with its numerous freighters and from time to time even a luxury liner – which make this city special. You can put yourself at best in the bustling life there in the “Hamburger Fischmarkt”. And of course you have to eat one or the other fish sandwich there, for nowhere fish and seafood tastes better than freshly caught from the North Sea.

A harbour tour should not be missed out and neither a tour of the warehouse district. When this “Speicherstadt” was built in the 19th Century, it was the largest connected warehouse complex ever. There are also very special museums: the “Deutsches Zollmuseum” (German Customs Museum) or the museum of spices “Hot Spice”, which focuses on the history of Hamburg’s “Pfeffersäcke” or “Moneybags”, as the wealthy merchants were named.

Those looking for a beautiful hotel in Hamburg should perhaps stick to city center, as from there the sights can me reached fastest. But to get the real “Hamburg feeling” you should definitely stay in a small Hamburg hotel.

There is, for example, the charming My Place Hotel: Some of the 18 rooms have a rooftop terrace others an idyllic terrace facing the inner courtyard. For those of you who are looking for a little more luxurious hotel we recommend the Hotel Abtei. Here you’ll stay in Harvestehude, one of Hamburg’s most luxurious districts, enjoying one of the 11 rooms of this 5 star boutique hotel within walking distance of the Alster lake.

Whether it’s the tasty and fresh food or a glimpse in the artistic life (for exmaple: “Hamburger Kunsthalle” art gallery where you can find paintings of Edward Munch, Manet, Caspar David Friedrich) – this romantic Hamburg, small hotels and the view of the Alster makes your short trip an unforgettable city break.
