The Westin Hotel, Hamburg

Platz der Deutschen Einheit 2, 20457 Hamburg, Germany (show on map)

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“The Westin Hamburg opened in 2016 and occupies 19 floors of the Elbphilharmonie, offering breathtaking views over the Hafencity and Elbe through the floor-to-ceiling glass bubble windows that ripple across the facade. The decor subtly echoes the wavy design of the building, from the lampshades to the wallpaper.”

Shortlisted in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Hamburg, Germany.

Telegraph review:

“The Westin Hamburg, set inside the upper section of the Elbphilharmonie, offers the usual upscale comforts associated with the brand as well as some additional cultural appeal. A location close to the HafenCity and Speicherstadt is convenient, and the hotel offers a decent restaurant and spa too.”

Fantastic location but the staff aren’t competent.

Fantastic location!

There is no reception on the first floor. It is necessary to carry on your luggage to the eighth floor yourself. When you call to the reception nobody answers. Cleanliness is not good enough. The price has not justified.

Excelllent design, comfy beds and top location

Great decoration, the mattress was fantastic. The location is unbeatable for Hamburg

The airco was not powerful enough to cool down the room - since the room is designed like a glass house with floor to ceiling windows all around, when the sun is shining the room gets quite hot. The airco is not strong enough to cater for this.

Fab hotel, great location, attentive staff

Arrived early from UK and able to check in. Spacious room on 18th floor with excellent views of the city and port. Responsive air conditioning. Nice bathroom. Great location for trains and buses, and for walking into the city. Unlimited breakfast a little pricey at €37 per person, but great choice of food and drinks. Attentive staff.

Officious man started to clear breakfast table at 10.55am without asking if we had finished.

Excellent location to enjoy trip to Hamburg

Great location and views from our 16th floor room. Spacious room.

Insufficient information in English to report to housekeeping that coffee machine didn’t work, or how to order food from room service. Limited choice of tea, only powdered milk available. Towelling was hard even 3* budget hotels provide soft towels! Small but necessary provisions let down the hotel.

A very elegant and comfortable stay in Hamburg.

Very good

As always, everything was amazing.

The staff gave us a room with a poor view, although we paid for a better one, and then tried to make us pay double the money for a better view instead of giving us what we paid for. Eventually, we got the room we paid for, after a long discussion that ruined the mood for us.

Recommend this hotel

This is an amazing hotel. We had a room with a beautiful view of the city. The building is very special, excellent location

Breakfast for vegan people could be much better. There is a corner for vegans but there are just few sweets and some vegetables, far from the options for non vegan people

Great hotel. Much better than average. Overall comfortable, but a little $$$$

Room view was awesome. Room was comfortable and well maintained. Bed was comfortable and bathroom was clean and well maintained. Breakfast was good and the restaurants in the hotel were good.

This is ok for the money, but a little pricey. Overall this hotel is good, and the staff seemed well focused on the guest experience. I would rebook this hotel in the future.

Amazing location - don’t get stung for breakfast!

Location was excellent! Couldn’t fault the staff, the gym and pool were an added bonus and were excellent! The room was huge, with a personal fridge and coffee machine and a free 1L bottle of water daily!

The breakfast was extortionate and very poor value for money. The price was not made clear to us on check in and we should have asked but got stung for one breakfast at €37 per person!

All in all, excellent stay!

Grand view from our hotel room across the waterfront, enjoyed the ceiling-to-floor windows; very quiet and relaxing. Excellent breakfast and excellent location!

Left the note to have the sheets changed, which did not happen. I had to make a call to the reception in the evening when we returned to the room. That was disappointing. Some of the staff lack language skills in English and German alike.

The best place to be on New Years Eve.

A very modern hotel with beautiful views.

The hotel is extremely clean. In fact it is so usual for all Hamburg 5 star hotels! may be the cleanest hotels in the world! And it always makes pleasure to see how clean it was. Very friendly staff! They made me feel at home. Still for such high prices it is something to be expected.

When so high prices a charged for a room WHY there are no paid TV channels? In this hotel for the first time there was not even one music channel!!!

Living The Dream

The curtains!! The bed, the views; the fact that we could stroll through to the Philharmonic Hall for a concert! Breakfast was a delight, and the staff so attentive.

Difficult to store and charge a hired Mobility Scooter. Hotel was reluctant to allow it to be kept in the storage room due to the possibility of fire. They did allow it from second day however.

Wonderful stay! We shall definitely return!

My wife and I went to 4 concerts at the Elbphilharmonie. It was extremely convenient as the hotel lobby and the concert hall foyer were both on 8th floor. We had a Studio Room. It was spacious and clean with a great view of the city and harbour. The hotel is in a great location. The subway station is less than 10 minutes away. 3 stops and you are in the City Hall and Alster Lake area.

We could not think of anything we dislike. We were in 1538 for 9 nights. We felt we could use more hanging space for clothes in closets and in the bathroom. We did return to Westin on a second visit and stayed at 1438. It was the same kind of room and we found more hanging space.

Our experience at West Inn was unforgettable.

During our stay at the West Inn in Hamburg, we were pleasantly surprised by the hotel's prime location and stunning architecture. The service and the room also left a lasting impression on us. Our room had a partial view of the harbour, allowing us to take in the breathtaking beauty of Hamburg city and the harbour. The view was truly mesmerizing. Staying at this hotel was not just an ordinary experience, it was an extraordinary one. If you are planning a trip to Hamburg, we highly recommend staying at the West Inn. It is just the Perl of Hamburg.
