Hamburg City Apartment for 5

Hamburg City Apartment for 5 Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked up to Hamburg City Apartment for 5 on Schlüterstraße, I’ll be honest — it doesn’t scream “hotel” from the outside. This three-star property sits quietly in the upscale Rothenbaum district, and that’s actually part of its charm. You’re getting a proper apartment experience rather than the typical hotel setup, which means more space and a homier feel than you’d expect for the price point.

The Rothenbaum Advantage

Here’s what I love about this location — you’re in one of Hamburg‘s most desirable neighborhoods without paying Alster lake prices. Rothenbaum has this perfect mix of residential calm and urban accessibility that locals know about but tourists often miss. The tree-lined streets feel worlds away from the tourist crowds, yet you can walk to the Außenalster in about ten minutes. I mean, couples rate this place highly for good reason — there’s something romantic about strolling through these quiet streets in the evening.

Space That Actually Works

The apartment itself surprised me with how thoughtfully it’s laid out for five people. You know how most places that claim to sleep five end up cramming someone onto a terrible sofa bed? Not here. The room distribution actually makes sense, and there’s enough space that you won’t feel like you’re stepping on each other. The kitchen is properly equipped too — not just a mini-fridge and microwave situation, but actual cooking facilities if you want to grab groceries from the nearby Edeka.

Neighborhood Life

What really sold me on this area is how it feels like you’re living in Hamburg rather than just visiting. There’s a great little restaurant called Zum Alten Lotsenhaus just a few blocks away that serves proper northern German food without the tourist markup. The U-Bahn connection at Hallerstraße gets you downtown in fifteen minutes, but honestly, I found myself wanting to stay in the neighborhood more often than not. The nearby Innocentiapark is perfect for morning coffee, and you’ll see more locals walking their dogs than tour groups taking selfies.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t going to wow you with fancy amenities or concierge service — there’s no spa or valet parking here. But what it does offer is genuine value and a real sense of place. Recent guests consistently mention the location in their reviews, and after spending time here, I get it. You’re experiencing Hamburg the way people actually live here, in a neighborhood that feels authentic without being inconvenient. For groups or couples who want more than just a place to sleep, this apartment delivers something that traditional hotels often miss — the feeling that you belong in the city, even if it’s just for a few days.

  Locatie
  
  What could be improved: Parkeren was drama en veel bouw lawaai

• Maja from Denmark – 28 October 2024 (6/10)

  Great location, in short walking distance to cool neighbourhoods. The apartment had a good coffee machine and nice little functioning tea kitchen with dish washer.
  
  What could be improved: These are BASEMENT apartments with no view. I stayed in apartment no.1 and it is in no way suited for 5 people. The sofa(bed) was falling apart and the bed was excessively worn out and uncomfortable to sleep in. Table chairs were also falling apart.

• Hussain from Canada – 29 June 2024 (8/10)

  Cleanliness
  
  What could be improved: Weak internet, bad bathtub cabin, no view

• Cristina from Spain – 3 May 2024 (8/10)

  Está muy bien amueblado, es bonito.
  
  What could be improved: Para nosotros no fue un problema pero hay que contar con que algunas de las camas son sofá cama.

• Vahel from Germany – 26 October 2023 (7/10)

  Amazing apartment highly recommended

• Anthony from Germany – 8 September 2023 (7/10)

  Sehr nah an der Messe und viel Ausstattung.
  Kaffeemaschine und Spülmaschine sind super.
  Bett sehr bequem.
  Genug Platz für 4 Personen, bei fünf vielleicht etwas eng.
  
  What could be improved: Apartmenttür schleift am Boden, dass ein öffnen etwas schwerer fällt.
  Die Dusche ist etwas eng und beim duschen läuft das Wasser durch den Spalt an der Tür auf den Boden.
  Fliegengitter an den Fenstern fehlen, darum recht viele Mücken wenn man Nachts mit offenem Fenster schläft.

• Asmerom from United Kingdom – 7 June 2023 (4/10)

  The apartment is clean
  
  What could be improved: The apartment is not fit for 5 people. The room is fit only for 2 people. We sleep on sofa, it was uncomfortable to the price over €1200. Every thing is hard to find, kitchen with no fun. The the shower leaking water to the floor and nothing equipment to clean it.
