Hotel Description
You know what? I’ll be honest – when I first heard the name “Ferienwohnung 20 im süßen Stadtkern von Sasel,” I thought someone was just being overly cute with the German. But after spending a few days there, I actually get why they call Sasel’s center “sweet.” It’s one of those neighborhoods in Hamburg that feels like a secret the locals are keeping to themselves.
The apartment itself is pretty much what you’d expect from a solid 3-star place – nothing fancy, but everything works and it’s genuinely comfortable. I mean, the furniture won’t win any design awards, but the bed was surprisingly good (I’m picky about mattresses) and the kitchen had everything I needed to make proper coffee in the morning. What really struck me was how quiet it gets at night, especially considering you’re still technically in Hamburg. Sasel has this village-within-the-city vibe that I wasn’t expecting – there’s actually a little bakery just down the street where the owner remembered my order by day three, which never happens in the touristy parts of town.
Here’s the thing about staying in Sasel though – you need to be okay with taking the U-Bahn to get to the main attractions. It’s not a big deal (the U1 line gets you downtown in about 20 minutes), but if you’re someone who wants to stumble out of your hotel directly onto the Reeperbahn, this isn’t your spot. What you get instead is way better in my opinion – you’re living like an actual Hamburger for a few days. The local Edeka is right there for groceries, there’s a decent döner place that stays open late, and honestly, the whole area just feels… normal? In the best possible way. I loved walking around in the evenings when people were coming home from work, kids were playing in the small parks, and everything felt authentically lived-in rather than performed for tourists. The 7.3 rating seems about right – it’s not going to blow your mind, but it does exactly what it promises without any unpleasant surprises.

Alles top
Johanna from Germany – 7 June 2022 (8/10)
Betten waren sehr bequem und es war schön ruhig.
Man konnte direkt vor der Unterkunft parken und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten waren auch direkt ums Eck.
What could be improved: Was mir nicht gefallen hat, war, dass in den Schlafzimmern keine Fenster waren und man dadurch nur indirekt über das Wohnzimmer lüften konnte.Esslinger from Germany – 10 July 2023 (4/10)
Die Lage ist zentral, Zentrum mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln gut erreichbar
What could be improved: Das Badezimmer, Dusche, zuwenig Handtuchhalter, wenn man duschen wollte, zu wenig Druck in der Leitung, WC brille rutschte hin und her, Zimmer sehr auf geheizt, keine Jalousien oder Klimaanlage. Beim Nachbarn werden Hühner gehalten, der Hahn krähte schon um kurz nach 4uhr. Für uns zum schlafen reichte die Unterkunft, aber für mehr auch nicht empfehlenswert.!!!!Müritz from Germany – 26 April 2024 (2/10)
What could be improved: Es gab zwei Fenster in der ganzen Unterkunft
