MY PLACE Hotel Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to MY PLACE Hotel on Lippmannstr., you immediately get the sense that this three-star spot knows exactly what it’s doing. It’s not trying to be flashy or pretentious — honestly, that’s what I loved about it right away. The building fits perfectly into the Sternschanze neighborhood, and there’s something refreshingly straightforward about the whole setup. You know what really caught my attention though? The fact that they actually have private parking available, which anyone who’s driven around Hamburg will tell you is basically gold.

The Sternschanze Experience

This location is honestly fantastic, and I mean that — couples seem to agree since they’re rating it 9.2 for romantic trips. Sternschanze has this perfect mix of local Hamburg character without being touristy or overly polished. You’re walking distance from some genuinely great bars and cafes that locals actually frequent, not just the usual tourist traps. The area feels alive but not chaotic, if that makes sense. I spent quite a bit of time just wandering the streets nearby, and you really get a feel for authentic Hamburg life here. The neighborhood truly captures the spirit of what makes this city special.

Your Room

The room I stayed in was clean, well-designed, and had everything I actually needed — not a bunch of stuff I’d never use. The beds are comfortable (I’m picky about this), and the whole space feels thoughtfully put together rather than just thrown together with generic hotel furniture. What impressed me was how they managed to make a relatively compact space feel open and functional. The Wi-Fi worked perfectly, which honestly shouldn’t be noteworthy but you’d be surprised how many places still mess this up. Every detail seemed carefully considered.

Daily Rhythms

Mornings here are pretty great — there’s a solid breakfast setup that gets you going without being overwhelming. The restaurant area has a relaxed vibe where you can actually sit and plan your day without feeling rushed. I found myself lingering over coffee more than usual, partly because the atmosphere was just right for it. The staff genuinely seems to care about making sure you’re sorted, but they’re not hovering or being overly formal about everything. It’s this balance that makes the experience feel genuine.

Why Guests Love It

Look, MY PLACE Hotel gets an 8.5 rating because it delivers on what matters most — location, comfort, and value. Recent guests are rating the location 9.1, and after spending time there, I completely understand why. You’re not paying for unnecessary frills, but you’re getting quality where it counts. The Sternschanze neighborhood gives you that authentic Hamburg experience, the private parking solves a real problem, and the whole place just works smoothly. It’s the kind of spot where you feel like you made a smart choice rather than just booking whatever was available. This hotel represents genuine hospitality.

    Everything about my stay was exceptional. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The room was very clean, and I really appreciated the quality of the linens and towels, as well as the commitment to environmentally friendly practices. I will absolutely be back next time I am in Hamburg!

    What could be improved: N/A

  • Nikola from Germany – 14 September 2024 (9/10)

    Top location, clean and quiet in a very quirky and colourful quarter of Hamburg.

  • Caitlin from Australia – 4 September 2024 (9/10)

    It was the best location, it was clean, perfect for one person.

    What could be improved: The bathroom was quite small but ok for one person, it wouldn’t stop me from returning.

  • Vibe from Denmark – 17 July 2024 (9/10)

    The location of the hotel is just perfect, in a very cool and vibrant part of Hamburg. The hotel is really neat, and the rooms are clean, cosy and very quiet – and also there are provided good advice for restaurants and things to do in the area on small notes in the room. The personnel in the reception also gave good advice on alternative ferry routes and what to see.

  • Laura from Denmark – 14 July 2024 (9/10)

    We had an amazing stay at MyPlace Hotel. The staff was so nice and talkative and they made sure we felt at home. The room we booked was super clean, modern and cozy and we loved the placement of the hotel. The hotel is on a quiet street but if you walk around the corner you are in the most lovely area in Hamborg.

  • David from United States – 26 June 2024 (9/10)

    Wonderful location, clean rooms very nice staff. 2 min walk to the heart of Schanzenviertel.

  • Elena from Switzerland – 2 May 2024 (9/10)

    Fantastic location. Silent room, great details, lots of light

  • Monika from United Kingdom – 1 January 2024 (8/10)

    Clean & warm, quiet location and still so very close to central Hamburg, friendly and helpful staff. Finding NYE complementary doughnuts on the table was such a sweet touch. Great recommendations of where to go and what to do in Hamburg.

    What could be improved: Stayed for 3 nights, no housekeeping during the stay (there was only one small bin provided in the bathroom that got full after the first night; it would have been also nice to get new towels at least once)

  • Line from Denmark – 19 October 2023 (9/10)

    Location is excellent. We got an upgrade to a room with balcony. Reception gave excellent advice for things to do, see and eat. Had a lovely trip on and along the river. Nice room!

    What could be improved: Nothing
