We were so lucky to have met the most lovely concierge who made our check in process the best. He was so accommodating and helpful. The room was very clean and cute. Great location to walk to the train station so you can get anywhere. Also a cute downtown nearby with lots of great food options for a quick snack. Would stay here again, definitely recommend!

The staff kept ringing from reception and hanging up from 10am onwards as it was obvious that they wanted to clean the room. Checkout was at 12pm, so we were by all means in our rights to still be using the room. We had a late one the night before and the constant ringing and trying the door was so so annoying.

Hotel was next to the railway station, so was easy to find and very much within walking distance; however I was not affected by any noise or disturbance from the station.
The underground system was in the same station, so getting around Hamburg was very convenient.
Staff were very helpful and friendly and professional.

Nice small hotel very close to Altona Station
This is a nice small hotel just 100 meters from Altona Station where all of Hamburg's transit connects, and Altona's cafes and shopping are a few steps further. Our room was large and comfortable with a comfy bed, sitting area, desk for working and fast wifi. There is coffee making and refrig, too. Two options are available for breakfast - small one with pastries and coffee and a big buffet with lots of choices. Both are yummy. The staff are friendly and helpful.. We enjoyed our stay!

The room was smallish but very clean and definitely adequate. Given the price of hotels in Hamburg it was excellent value for money. It was also a good location for transport links to the airport and for travelling around Hamburg. It was close to the rail, tube and bus stations.

Tiny rooms. No lifts. Great location. Clean
Very small room. Even smaller bathroom. No lifts so you’ll have to haul your bags up the stairs. Reception is at the hotel next door. Friendly staff. Wifi not good. We didn’t have breakfast.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. Great location, very clean, and the bed was the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. I wanted to take the bed home with me.

Too warm for comfort
Lack of air conditioning and being so close to the rail station, meaning that the noise from an open window was undesirable, made for a warm and uncomfortable stay. For the money; I would have expected air conditioning as standard and would have managed to get some sleep over the two nights.

Very convenient location near the Hamburg-Altona station. Although it can be a little noisy in the evenings, the noise level usually goes down by 11 pm.

Hotel central
The hotel room was simple but clean. The bathroom was big and had ample towels for 2 of us. The tv gave only 3 channels all in German. No toiletries in the bathroom. Check in and out quick and efficient.

OK but....
Very difficult to get to as Sat Nav couldn't get us round road works and one way systems. Had to park in station car park up road - expensive. Room small and shower/toilet very cramped. Hamburg not inspiring although useful for boat trip to Heligoland. Breakfast good. Hotel central seemed to be an annex of a Great Western with different name up the road. Although they seemed to come to us for breakfast. Not obvious where reception was on arrival at Hotel Central as in the other hotel up the street. useful for one night business trip not tourist. Once we found reception they were helpful and lent umbrellas - very useful.

Hotel near Altona
I was looking for a hotel next to Altona translation to have easy access to the local public transportation system. The hotel is together with the Best Western next door. Reception is in the Best Western, breakfast in the Hotel Central. Makes getting to the rooms a bit strange; take the elevator to the third floor, then walk a long hallway and take the stairs down. Breakfast was very good, rooms were large, everything is clean. Beds are a little short (2m, I am 195cm). The rooms were surprisingly quiet with the windows closed. Not so with windows open.
