Hotel Atlantic, Hamburg
Expert reviews
“Imagine yourself aboard a luxury ocean liner in this grand 252-room hotel, which opens onto Holzdamm. Built in 1909 for passengers departing for America, it has ornate stairwells, wide hallways and subtle maritime touches.”
“There are few hotels in Germany more sumptuous than this gracious Edwardian palace facing the Aussenalster, which draws both celebrities and the not-so-famous searching for a luxe retreat. Built in 1909 for first-class passengers about to travel across the Atlantic, the hotel still exudes class.”
“This stately five-star is one of Hamburg’s finest grand hotels. With a stellar location overlooking the Alster Lake and a luxurious aesthetic throughout its 221 rooms and extensive public spaces, it also offers a spa with indoor pool, high-end restaurant and exemplary service.”

Very good
Prime location close to the Alster Lake and at 5 minute walk to the town center. The building encompasses a lot of historical charm. The spa is excellent. The front desk staff are amazing, and the concierge service is top notch.
Poor daily cleaning, no turn down service, mini bar didn’t get refilled once during our 4 day stay. It’s a shame cause these details or rather the lack of them takes away from an otherwise excellent experience.

Good hotel in Hamburg downtown
It is a short way to walk to the hotel from the central railway station. The breakfast was good: for example fresh orange juice.

The bed was too soft. When one moves, it awakens the other...

It is a very elegant hotel, offering different restaurants, a lovely bar, extremly good breakfast. The lake is beautiful nearby. There is a professional staff, it is almost unique in Germany. (Only in the bigger 5 star hotels have an adequate number of employees.)
The swimming pool is rather small.

Location, Staff and Style!
A beautiful, classical style hotel with a long history right across a street from the Aussen-Alster. The staff was amazing and went above and beyond with our welcome, assistance with a rental car return, and advice during our stay. Easy access to the Hamburg Central Train station and the S and U-Bahn tracks. Very walkable to older historical sites, also. A wonderful experience!!

Perfect stay in a hotel that truly represents their 5 stars
Everything was perfect in our stay at the Atlantic. The care with our important dates was amazing with amenities and true demonstration of care for my birthday and our anniversary. The Concierge went above and beyond to help me with perfect flowers perfectly arranged at breakfast for our anniversary and to surprise my wife, but the entire hotel staff joined in the process of making our day amazing. On top of impeccable cleaning, great room, food this stay was really good. My son and wife ordered from room service every night, very late, and their food was always great and the kindness of the lady serving them was amazing.
I think the not so perfect experience was at the bar. I have gin and tonic everywhere and tried it in many ways but here it came is a simple glass with really huge chunks of cucumber. It was simply not nicely prepared. But again, everything else being perfect, this was a minor issue.

Comfort in a great place
The room was very comfortable, the hotel is spacious and has a variety of services available for the guests. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The location is ideal for all ages.
The rooms need a little TLC. Little holes and dents on the wall.

The hotel is beautiful, spotless and lives up to 5 stars. Staff were extremely friendly and professional. Nice tasteful bar(great selection of cocktails), and the breakfast room is lovely. Breakfast was exceptional, served until a civilised 12 at weekends, and the WiFi was fast.
The room was a little pokey (though very comfortable), but we booked late. The (pleasant) pool area could probably use a bit of an update.

old world charm
I liked the atmosphere and the breakfast. Room size was great. When I asked about turndown service, they immediately implemented it as a special request. Very helpful front desk staff.
For a hotel of this caliber, I was expecting turndown service to be automatic. Turndown service did not include a chocolate on the pillow which was disappointing. No tea kettle or tea provided in the room.

Perfect home from home in Hamburg
eye for detail for example yoga mat in room cupboard, energy bars and water bottles at hotel entrance. Warm and welcoming ambiance. Very helpful and friendly staff. The location is just around the corner of the Hamburger Kunsthalle and Jungfernstieg is just a short stroll away. We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely recommend.

Fabulous
The decor, the room, the breakfast, the staff and concierge. The hôtel was thematic, exceptionally well done, like living in 1920's where everything looks new and plush.
The cigar lounge smelled of cigarettes, the pool area smelled musty and it could use a renovation. Also, they allow dogs in the hôtel, so often we couldn't hear because of barking.

Delightful!
The lobby was lovely, and our dinners in the bar were great. We had a very comfortable room with a beautiful lake view. The staff was friendly and helpful-especially Alex, the doorman, and Sophie at reception. Breakfast was delicious, and our lunchboxes were perfect. Our teddy bear is adorable.
There were elevator issues when we were ready to check out. That said, maintenance had already been called.

Charming staff, super comfy bed
Lighting in the bathroom was not good enough to put your make up on and the bar closed at midnight - I am not Cinderella

One of the best hotel experience for your family so far.
The service was the best of the best - on a rainy day umbrellas were available as soon as we stepped outside. Nothing was left to chance. The location was good, if the city center is your main visiting area as it is in walking distance from the hotel. The restaurants and breakfast available are of very high standards - gourmet like. We went as a family of five and both children and adults really enjoyed our stay, as the hotel is both children and dog friendly.

The combination of old and new. And the great experience in the lobby. Great people and very friendly staff. They are customer focused.
My mattress was a two piece one. A one piece would be ideal.
