Help with accomodation

by Jimmyp41

Hi,

My friends and I are visiting Hamburg the weekend of the 9th/10th May.

Can anyone recomend a budget hotel, nr the train station/Reeperbahn please?

We've already tried Hotel Figaro (no availability) & Hotel Stern (no reply).

Thanks for your help.

Jim

See http://www.hamburg-tourism.de/irs/TPortal/main/vacancyResult/whl/hotelList.jsp?LANG=en&CURRENT_SORT_ORDER=AT_ORDER_DISTANCEDEU00000100000217843&NEXT_TO=DEU0000010000021784326 (that's one looong address) for a list of hotels near Reeperbahn.

However, you don't really have to stay close to Reeperbahn. Public transport is well organized in Hamburg, to central station it's just 10 minutes by lines S1, S3 or U3, and trains run all night on weekends.

Stayed in the Zleep hotel 5 min walk from Reeperbahn station last year.

Very clean and comfortable and good location.

Am booked to go here shortly and has been recommended to me:

http://www.superbude.de/

Might be worth trying to book through some hotel booking services. We tried to book directly to Superbude from their website and it seemed to be full, but then managed to get a room there through a hotel booking website. Can't remember which now, but lastminute.com, expedia.co.uk, venere.com or similar.

Hope this helps! Good luck!

Hi Jim,
maybe you want to lool up my accomodation tips for some further info. Superbude is a new hostel, with little more design than others. If you get a room it should be a good option. As a hostel also Schanzenstern should be a good tip. It is in the middle of the "Schanze", a very active quarter with lots of bars, restaurants, etc.
For a hotel I like YoHo, that offer a special rate for younger guest.
Here the link to my tips if you need more detailes info.

have a nice stay - chris.

Hi Chris,

Thanks for the post. I've emailed Schanz hostel hopefully they will have some rooms available.
Unfortunately the other hotels/hostels kindly recomended to me are full that weekend.
Regards,
Jim

Travel Tips for Hamburg

LAND OF THE MIDNIGHT SUN

by nikola316

THIS PICTURE WAS TAKEN IN THE MID TO LATE PART OF MAY FROM MY FRIEND'S FLAT. I HAD FORGOTTEN MY GEOGRAPHY TEMPORARILY. HAMBURG IS AT ABOUT THE SAME LATITUDE AS THE HUDSON BAY IN CANADA... THUS GIVING IT LONG DAYS IN THE SUMMER AND SHORT DAYS IN THE WINTER.
I ARRIVED AT THE MAIN STATION IN HAMBURG AT ABOUT 20:30 AND IT WAS ABOUT AS LIGHT AS NEW YORK WOULD BE AT 17:00. I WAS SO TIRED FROM THE TRAIN RIDE THAT I GUESS IT DIDN'T REGISTER IN MY MIND THAT THIS WAS UNUSUAL. BUT WHEN I LOOKED AT THE CLOCK, AND IT WAS NEARLY MIDNIGHT... I JUST HAD TO TAKE A PICTURE OF THE SUNLIGHT REFLECTING OFF OF THE BUILDINGS. THE TRAIN RIDE THERE. IT IS MY FONDEST MEMORY BECAUSE IT WAS A SLEEP DEPRIVING NIGHTMARE. I WAS AWAKE FOR OVER 40 HOURS... WITHOUT NAPPING. I JUST COULD NOT SLEEP.
SOMETIMES YOU CAN LOOK BACK AT HELLISH TIMES WITH FONDNESS.
ALSO ARRIVING AT THE STATION AND WAITING FOR MY BUDDY TO SHOW UP WAS INTERESTING. I WAS FINALLY GOING TO BE ABLE TO GET SOME SLEEP.

Bugenhagenkirche

by Kathrin_E

Hamburg’s ugliest church (I assume) was built in the 1920s in the suburb of Barmbek and named after the reformator Johannes Bugenhagen. The monumental building with its huge block-like steeple has a coating of bricks while the structure is made of concrete. It is an example of modern architecture in times of Bauhaus and expressionism. The ground floor, formerly the community hall, is now used for theatre and dance parties (!) while the church hall is on the first floor, to be reached up the outside staircase. The five sculptures above the portal depict important personalities from Hamburg’s church history.

Hans-Albers-Platz

by chancay about St. Pauli and Reeperbahn

One of the central places on the "Kiez" with various bars and pubs around. Several possibilities to sit outside. Different music from everywhere, on friday and saturday night always totally crowded, mostly with "tourist"-party people, but the locals are as well mixed up with them. whatever

Lots of Vegetarian Options Here

by Mariajoy about Arkadasch

Brenda and I had planned to meet here for dinner at 6pm, and we did. Even though there was plenty of seating, friendly staff and LOADS of vegetarian options we decided to check out some other places first. If I had been staying in Hamburg longer I would have definitely eaten here at some point. There were plenty of choices for vegetarians but I didn't eat here.

Near the river there are tour...

by jmbredeck

Near the river there are tour boats and vendors of 'krabben' sandwiches. These are basically tiny shrimp that have been turned into a kind of seafood salad which makes for a memorable, and cheap, meal!
