IntercityHotel Hamburg Hauptbahnhof

Just a nice hotel. It is clean and nice and the bed is good..

The stay was definitely satisfactory. +Breakfast was comprehensive and tasty (meatballs, scrambled eggs, boiled eggs, assorted types of bread and toppings like ham, sausage, cheese, yoghurts, cereals, fruit, coffee and so on). Saw some previous complaints about the composition which I certainly do not agree wíth. +Room was of decent standard! Bed was not too hard, nor too soft, slept like a log. Room facing the inner yard, not much noise despite open window. +Free tickets for buses and trains (including train back to the airport) was included in the price for the duration of the visit, which was awesome. I believe some ferries were also included, though we did not have the time to explore this aspect further. +Hotel is situated right across the road from the main train station, very convenient! Distans to the Town hall is less than one kilometer in the opposite direction. -Ventilation in the bathroom felt insufficient despite the ceiling fan. There was some black mold in the shower area which tarnished the impression a bit. -The train station (while being an impressive piece of architecture) tends to attract a bit of a questionable clientele at night. This is certainly not the hotels fault, but the review asks for a grading of the surrounding area, so. Would definitely stay there again.

Location is excellent if you are travelling by train. It’s on the cleaner side of the train station, so feels quite safe. However, if you are spending more a couple nights in transit, then the facility and comfort of the room left a lot to be desired of. Particularly the pillows smells and the mattress is really at it’s last leg.
