“The hotel's central location, steps from Alster Lake and the opera, appeals, as does its classic European charm. I particularly appreciate the complimentary public transport pass, a thoughtful touch for exploring Hamburg; however, light sleepers should request a room away from the street. Overall, a solid choice for those wanting to be in the heart of the city.”

The Hotel Baseler Hof enjoys a fantastic location, just a short walk from the main train station and right next to the Alster pond. Rooms are spacious and clean, some even featuring a chimney and ceiling to floor windows offering great city views; plus, amenities like coffee, tea, and sometimes even a minibar stocked with free drinks and snacks are much appreciated. While most find the location ideal, some guests have noted occasional street noise. A bar in the lobby with comfortable couches is also available.
