Michelin Guide "Famous architect David Ch ipperfield designed this contemporary hotel close to the St Pauli pontoon bridges."
Lonely Planet "Sparing splashes of colour brighten its restaurant, bars and 327 streamlined rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows, most with harbour views." Full review
Rough Guide "A spectacular copperclad towerblock that rose over a former brewery (much to locals’ chagrin) in 2008, this is all about the astonishing views over the port available from its rooms."
Fodor's "The location near the Reeperbahn and the harbor, the clever use of space and light, and a cool bar that attracts thousands every weekend make the Empire a favorite." Full review
The Telegraph8.0

Frommer's "Close to the nightlife center of Hamburg, this small hotel is part of an old apartment block. Rather minimalist in decor, it is a house of personality, taste, and comfort." Full review

Those seeking more tranquillity should ask for one of the rooms overlooking the tree-studded courtyard.
Fodor's "Fun, swinging-'60s-style accommodations...stylish flower-print and geometric-shape wallpaper, crystal fruit-bowl lampshades, and vintage teacups and saucers." Full review
Time Out "Its “budget boutique” lodgings include single, double and triple rooms, each compact in size but seriously generous on light, comfort and classy design credentials." Full review
Lonely PlanetTop choice
"This stylish townhouse hotel sits smack dab in the heart of the Schanzenviertel party zone. Rooms are smallish, with wooden floors, angular furniture and large windows; seven of the 17 have a balcony." Full review
