My friend and I booked this hotel for our stay in Hamburg when we were in town for the Taylor Swift concert, and because neither of us had been to Hamburg—let alone Germany—before, we were sort of blindly booking hotels for this trip. We ended up picking this one because it was such a reasonable price and looked nice, but what we didn’t know what just how nice and convenient it was!
The hotel is right down the block from the nearest S-Bahn station which just so happened to have a stop at the stadium. So if you’re in town for a show at Volksparkstadion, this hotel is perfectly located! It also was a short train ride to the central downtown area of Hamburg, but you can even walk that distance in what I want to say was like half an hour! All to say, the location of this hotel is great, and the area is quiet and super safe!
The staff was also so kind and helpful throughout our stay. Even with things like us needing scissors at one point, they were there to help us! We didn’t get to spend as much time at the bar as we should have, but my friend and I both got espresso martinis before leaving for the concert, and the bartender made KILLER espresso martinis! And we’re tough critics because we’re bartenders ourselves!
The rooms were super comfortable and cute, with plenty of outlets by the beds for charging phones (ALWAYS appreciated!). The bathrooms were also nice with a heat light for when you get out of the shower and great water pressure! The only thing I wish we had had in our room was an ironing board and iron, but I honestly don’t know how common that is in European hotels, and I’m the only one of my friend group who ever even cares about that, so that’s just a me thing!
But yes, overall, this was an incredible experience at NYX Hamburg! We will definitely be booking with them again if we ever find ourselves in Hamburg in the future!
