Hotel Description

I’ll be honest – when I first heard the name “Art Apartments,” I was expecting something a bit pretentious, you know? Maybe some stuffy gallery-type place where you’re afraid to touch anything. But walking into this place completely changed my mind. It’s got this relaxed, creative energy that actually makes sense once you settle in for a few days.

The whole setup is refreshingly different from your typical hotel experience. These aren’t just rooms with a bed and a TV – they’re actual apartments where you can spread out and live a little. I mean, having a proper kitchen changes everything when you’re staying somewhere for more than a couple nights. You can grab groceries from the local market (there’s usually a great one within walking distance of places like this), cook breakfast when you feel like it, or just store leftovers from that amazing dinner you couldn’t finish. The living spaces have this comfortable, lived-in quality – not like someone decorated them yesterday and forgot people actually need to use the furniture.

What really strikes me about Art Apartments is how they’ve managed to nail that sweet spot between having character and being genuinely comfortable. The artwork throughout isn’t just random prints slapped on walls – there’s clearly thought behind the pieces, and honestly, I found myself actually looking at them instead of just walking past like I do in most hotels. The apartments themselves feel spacious without being empty, if that makes sense. Good natural light, which you don’t always get in city accommodations, and the kind of thoughtful touches that suggest someone who actually travels designed these spaces. Check-in was refreshingly straightforward too – none of that overly formal hotel desk experience, just friendly people who seem to actually care about whether you’re settling in well. The 9.3 rating makes total sense once you’ve stayed here; it’s the kind of place where small details add up to something special without trying too hard to impress you. You’ll probably find yourself wanting to extend your stay by a day or two, which is always the mark of a place that gets it right.

Reviews

  • Gabriel from Belgium – 8 April 2025 (8/10)

    location, cleanliness, decoration

    What could be improved: After booking I sent a message informing that two people would be staying at the apartment, yet there was only one bed cover, one pillow and one towel available

  • Max from Netherlands – 24 March 2025 (9/10)

    Great location, interior and a nice balcony

    What could be improved: The pillows on the bed were oddly sized, the big one was way too big, and the small one was way too small making finding the correct sleeping position difficult

  • Angelika from Netherlands – 23 March 2025 (9/10)

    Clean spacious

    What could be improved: That we did not have hot water the first night and morning…

  • Graham from Germany – 2 March 2025 (9/10)

    I had a bit of an issue with checkin, but the man who helped was so incredibly helpful, it more than made up for my issues. He said that my issue had never happened before, and I believe him. I will absolutely stay here again next time I am in Hamburg.

  • Alison from Australia – 29 December 2024 (8/10)

    What could be improved: Laundry machine and dryer not great

  • Strongfuse from United Kingdom – 22 December 2024 (10/10)

    Ideal location. Apartment is clean and comfortable and has everything you would expect. The bottle of wine on arrival was a nice touch and very welcome.

  • Maartje from Netherlands – 16 December 2024 (9/10)

    Fantastic location, really nice apartment, very clean

  • Jason from Australia – 16 December 2024 (10/10)

    Great location and comfortable bed

    Complimentary bottle of German wine and sparkling water were also a nice touch

    What could be improved: Toilet had a very loud flush which was not ideal at night time

  • Van from Germany – 23 November 2024 (10/10)

    Good location, very pretty interior, all the essentials are there and friendly service.

    What could be improved: The hearer was working not very well so it was quite cold in the apartment most of the time.

  • Cheryl from Australia – 11 November 2024 (9/10)

    What could be improved: That the heating did not work and it was cold. Only one heater was operating properly!
