The hotel’s eco-conscious philosophy shines through in every detail, especially the breakfast, which features locally sourced ingredients. While there's no orange juice (which makes sense given their sustainability focus), they serve an amazing apple juice from Altes Land—fresh, flavorful, and totally worth trying. The staff were outstanding: professional, friendly, and efficient during check-in and check-out. The location is convenient for exploring Hamburg, with easy access to public transit. This place feels like a hidden retreat with a strong commitment to quality and sustainability—highly recommended for travelers who appreciate authenticity and mindful travel.
Hotel Fresena im Dammtorpalais
Definitely not for anyone with claustrophobia! To reach the sink, you have to awkwardly squeeze sideways and then endure being tightly wedged between the shower wall and bathroom wall—truly uncomfortable and unsettling. The lack of space made it feel suffocating, and I felt genuinely uneasy throughout. It’s a nightmare experience I’d never want to repeat. Not worth the stay.
