Expert reviews

Lonely Planet review:

“Kidney-shaped tables, plush armchairs, vintage typewriters – the Henri channels the 1950s so successfully that you half expect to run into Don Draper. Its 65 rooms and studios are a good fit for urban lifestyle junkies who like the alchemy of modern comforts and retro design.”

Fodors review:

“Concealed down a side street not far from the main station, this small boutique hotel, with its retro rooms, furniture, and phones, will undoubtedly please fans of film noir and Mad Men. Guest rooms are softly lit, their dark, wooden chairs and cabinets offset by light green walls, gray curtains, and white wood panels behind the beds.”

Telegraph review:

“The Henri is owned by the same company behind the stately Louis C. Jacob hotel. Markedly different from its sister property, it offers 65 stylish and highly comfortable rooms and suites in a central location, a rooftop spa with great views, plus warm and professional service.”

What guests liked

All you need to know

Henri Hotel exudes a vintage charm, from its gracefully fashioned brick exterior, characterized by a marquee-styled hotel name, to guest rooms adorned with classical telephones and age-old writing desks.

Nestled in the heart of Hamburg, this unique boutique hotel is situated in a refurbished office edifice, with remnants of its original mid-century modern design.

The ambiance is reminiscent of Mad Men, but with a modern German flair; instead of secretaries, you’ll prepare your own espresso, and instead of martinis and wedge salads for dinner, there’s Abendbrød, a light meal composed of seasonal fare.

Guest rooms are not only beautifully furnished but also pragmatic, featuring snug seating areas and well-appointed coffee corners. More spacious suites boast full-length windows, separate lounges, and mini kitchens.

Additional amenities include a well-equipped gym and a petite spa on the top tier, offering cityscape views, a basic yet tasty breakfast, and a trendy cocktail bar — interestingly, an honesty bar lets you serve yourself outside normal operating hours.

A great choice downtown

Great location, very nice room with extremely comfortable bed and lovely decor

The air extraction in the bathroom didn't work at all, but fortunately we could open the windows in the room for the necessary ventilation after a shower!

Very convenient choice for a weekend. All in all nice hotel but not quite full 4 stars

Location is perfect, 5 min from the main station and right into the city center. Rooms are comfortable and very clean. Their vintage vibe is nice and rooms/hotel are full of details to complete such atmosphere (maybe too much at some point).

Wifi was not reaching properly the rooms at the end of the hallway floor and worked poorly; a repeater wouldn't hurt. I understand the building is old, but if you have early birds taking a shower in the rooms above you, the pipes make a LOT of noise so not nice if you have light sleep. Lastly, there are nice indications in case you lack small basic hygiene products so they can provide in the reception, however it would be nice to have at last one of those (e.g. conditioner) already in the room because realistically, nobody goes all the way down to reception again once ready to take a shower (and there is plenty of space for having such products ready).

It felt like dropping in on a friend for the night

Great place for an overnight stay when travelling by train as it is very near to the station, check in and out was quick & easy and food was available when I arrived relatively late and left fairly early

The quickest route from the station is down a rather dimly lit street - a little daunting when travelling alone. But second time around I knew to follow a different route down the main shopping street - it took 1 minute more

Absolutely wonderful stay.

An absolute delight of a hotel. It’s beautiful and has so much character. The staff are very helpful and kind. The beds are unbelievably comfortable, the sauna was wonderful, the free evening meal was an excellent and unexpected surprise. The breakfast is superb.

The location was excellent, but the car park was a few blocks away. Not a deal breaker but I wish I could’ve parked my car closer and also didn’t have to be responsible for a garage key and delivering it back after I left. It slowed the check in and check out process a bit.

Great Hotel, friendly staff and great location

Room was well kitted out, light and airy. Interesting bespoke furniture and a great coffee machine.

Across the road was a construction site (but no issue for us) and there were limited parking spots available

Cozy hotel near central station

The location near Hamburg Central Station is perfect. Everything in the room was perfect - we felt at home immediately. Staff was very friendly. There‘s a „public minibar“ where you can find everything you need and then take it to your room. So a very innovative and cozy hotel in the heart of Hamburg.

Would stay there again and would recommend to friends.

Location was excellent for all major attractions in Hamburg. Most within short walking distance and the city transportation system was close to the hotel

Little more variety at breakfast.

A little bit older decor. Perhaps a bit tired looking.

Great location for the meetings that we had. Room was a good size and very good temperature. Breakfast had a good selection

I would have preferred double duvet rather than a single. Also it is good to provide decaf coffee and tea.
