Hotel Hafen Hamburg – A Favorite for Families in Hamburg
About the Hotel
Rooms with maritime charm
Hotel Hafen Hamburg offers 380 rooms in three buildings: the Traditional Building, the Tower, and the Residence. Rooms range from compact single rooms (11 m^2) to spacious family rooms (35 m^2). Some rooms feature harbor or river Elbe views. Amenities include high-speed Wi-Fi, flat-screen TVs, Nespresso machines, and heated towel racks. The Traditional Building has wood-paneled corridors with nautical decor like model ships and oil paintings.
Dining with harbor views
The hotel has three dining options. Restaurant Port serves Hamburg classics like Pannfisch and dry-aged Côte de Boeuf, with terrace seating overlooking Landungsbrücken. Tower Bar, 62 meters high, offers 360° harbor views and cocktails. Willi's Bierstube is a historic pub with draft beers and a lounge featuring cruise ship-style seating. Breakfast buffet (€27/person) includes North German specialties.
Events and entertainment
The hotel hosts four annual New Year's Eve events, including a Tower Bar party with DJs and harbor-view dinners. Six conference rooms (20-315 person capacity) feature harbor views and maritime decor. Wedding packages include harbor cruise options. A rooftop webcam streams live Elbe river and Elbphilharmonie views from the sister hotel 400m away.
St. Pauli location
The hotel is 200m from Landungsbrücken piers and the Alter Elbtunnel. Reeperbahn nightlife district is 1km away. S-Bahn line 1 (Landungsbrücken station) provides direct access to Blankenese (20 mins) and central train station (10 mins). Public parking (€25/day) has 1.8m clearance height.

Maritime history
Originally a 19th-century sailors' hostel, the property displays nautical antiques throughout. The Golden Staircase in the Traditional Building leads to rooms named after naval ranks (Sailor, Lieutenant, Commander). The Port restaurant showcases shipping artifacts. Family rooms accommodate 2 adults and 2 children (max age 14) with Hanseatic-style decor.
