Overall Ratings & Reviews Novotel Hamburg City Alster

The property is closer to the main attractions of Hamburg. If you are travelling as a family (with kids), keep in mind that the rooms are pretty small and the size of the bed is also small.

Staff are friendly, room is comfortable, food nice.

recently stayed at your hotel for a week and had a very disappointing experience. Despite booking the highest-priced room, the service fell far below expectations. The staff were unfriendly and unhelpful throughout my stay, which made the experience unpleasant. Additionally, basic amenities like bottled water were not provided in the room, which is surprising given the price point and standard one would expect. Also lot of sounds as some work going on. I hope the management takes this feedback seriously and works on improving the service and guest experience.

I booked 2 rooms for my family of 5 and when I checked in they gave us 1 room in the first floor and the second one in the 4 th floor which was very inconvenient. The room was very small and had no desk or makeup table and when I booked I thought the room will have an extra bed for tgd 3 rd person that I was charged extra for but it turned that they just opened the sofa to make it a bed for the 3 rd adult so there was no sitting area either

We had a great stay at the Novotel Alster. It was our first visit to Hamburg. The hotel was clean and always smelt lovely. The staff were nice and everything requested was brought up straight away. The breakfast offering was fresh and lovely and I really liked the fresh lemon and ginger tea bar. You are on the door step of the under/overground which was fantastic and about 12 minutes away from the gorgeous town centre. I had no issues and look forward to coming and staying here again. Thanks Novotel!

I would recommend

I didn’t like the maids just walking in on me

Everything seemed fine until we decided to have a drink in the bar are on the last night. That’s when Ratatouille decided to appear and run under the window on the carpet. I noticed at breakfast there were bait boxes on the dining area so obviously there is a rodent problem

It is close to the tube station for visiting different sights & covenient for walks.

Ideally situated to visit Hamburg with a metro station right outside.

I had an absolutely faultless two-night stay in this hotel, and cannot thank enough the hotel staff who made it so. A perfect location too, with a train station stop right outside. You know exactly what you'll get with the Novotel brand, and it didn't disappoint.

The hotel is very clean and spacious, with friendly staff and a good restaurant. The surroundings are peaceful, yet busy shopping malls are just 18 minutes’ walk away!

The hotel is new and well built, but we experienced a fire evacuation at 4 am during the stay, which disturbed the sleep, unfortunately :(

Modern and clean with excellent transport links directly in front of hotel.

Excellent property and nice location

Regretfully there was no restaurant - only a snack bar - in the hotel, whereas the information on Google Maps said there should be one. If that had been the case I would have given this hotel the maximum rating.

Modern hotel in a good location if you don’t mind using the ubahn. Entrance to the ubahn station is only steps away- but it’s an extra cost to consider. Breakfast was great and parking is right under the hotel for 19€ per day. Staff were very friendly. Complaints would be the street noise was insane if you cracked your window. Our room was inexplicably hot so we wanted fresh air- but it was definitely noisy. Room was clean but small and no coffee in the room. Overall it was a good hotel, but not great.

The information you gey while you check in .staff where very helpfull

5 days before arriving to the hotel, i sent an email to to the hotel about my request. Never answer to my request. :(

Very nice breakfast. Front desk kept items i had left behind then lost them.
