Of course, this having been my first visit to Hamburg and never having stayed at any other hotel in Hamburg, I will not try to compare the hotel to other hotels. Instead, I will just review the best parts of... More

The room was very spacious, bed very comfortable, pillows very soft, location was terrific, we walked every where, very central. The only down fall is that nothing opened on Sundays and public holidays. Try the local food extremely nice.

You can just enjoy cool design, pleasant decor, top functionality and perfect service from very friendly staff. Far better than any hotel we have stayed in. Rooms and suites are just much better designed and arranged - offering you premium comfort. Nothings missing and everythings working perfectly.

Was with my family for a vacation. The property is great, lovely view and central. proximity to the station, shopping area etc. However, the people manning the property are extremely warm and hospitable. It was home away from home. They took pains in guiding us to the various places to see and finding schedule and doing reservations for us. Thank... More

I had a circumstance that made me a bit of a high maintenance customer and the staff was extremely helpful and accommodating. Also, the bed is so comfortable - the best sleep I've ever had at a hotel!

Rating "Average" only for its location. Despite it is Sofitel Brand, this hotel does not have its value. Rooms are like Pullmann-Novotel. It is overprised and staff does not respect the VIP guest Platinum wishes. Our room was in lower floor with no view, but we asked for 3 months before our stay. Breakfast was average like better Novotel. Next... More
