Unusual and creative, lifestyle and design hotels are on the rise! On our recent trip to Germany, we actively sought out chic, luxury hotels in Hamburg for our city escape, and Le Méridien got our stamp of approval. Read below to find out why it is selected by us as the best place to stay in Hamburg!
Le Méridien Hamburg
5-Star Hotel in Prime Location
So what made us choose Le Méridien over other 5-star hotels in Hamburg?
We’re not gonna lie, when it came to choosing where to stay in Hamburg, a convenient location was a super important factor, and Le Méridien’s central location makes it a convenient base to explore the city.
Nestled in the vibrant St. Georg district, on the banks of Outer Alster Lake, Le Méridien is within walking distance to many attractions, eateries, and LGBTQI-friendly cafes.
It only takes:
- 10 mins to get to Hamburg central train station
- 15 mins to Jungfernstieg (Hamburg’s famous boulevard) and town hall
- 35 mins to Hamburg Airport (by S-Bahn line, or 16 mins by car)

A Place to Relax in Style and Comfort
Besides the central location, St. Georg is the best area to stay in Hamburg for another reason – the lake view!
At Le Méridien Hamburg, the breathtaking views of Alster Lake gave us an opportunity to enjoy tranquility while staying in the heart of the city.
The rooms have a minimalist appeal featuring a whimsical maritime design. Plush robes, slippers, and Malin+Goetz plant-based toiletries are offered to ensure your utmost comfort.
What we loved most is that the bedrooms come with a separate shower and Victorian-style bathtub (just in case you want a full relaxation!).
Coffee lovers will be delighted to find an Illy coffee machine in the room, with coffee pods refilled daily. Tea drinks not to worry, electric kettle and tea bags are at your disposal!
Top-Notch Facilities to Refresh Your Senses
At Le Méridien Hamburg, you don’t have to go far to grab a bite. Perched on the top floor of the hotel, Heritage Restaurant and Bar will tantalize all of your senses.
For breakfast or dinner, Heritage Restaurant invites you to indulge in delectable international fare with picture-perfect views of Outer Alster Lake as your backdrop. (We especially loved the tartar!)
Swing by the bar in the afternoon or late night, and splurge a chance to sip creative cocktails. As a hotel guest, you also receive a complimentary coffee on the house!
For those who want to stay fit while on holiday, a gym is open for you around the clock. If you would rather relax, a heated indoor pool, sauna, steam, and spa are there to soothe your cares away!.
A Key to Discover the Best of Hamburg
What really sets Le Méridien Hamburg apart though is its Unlock Art programme. With a key card, you will have complimentary access to Deichtorhallen Hamburg (a contemporary art and photography museum) and a boat tour on the Alster Lakes. Perfect for curious travelers who want to go out and explore Germany!
Combining convenience and luxurious comfort, Le Méridien makes travel easy for urban explorers. Next time when you’re looking for a luxury hotel in Hamburg, think no more and book a stay at Le Méridien Hamburg!
