The Best Hotels in St Georg

Hotel Atlantic

St Georg, Hamburg, is a great place for an easy-going weekend away — one without much fuss or fanfare, full of meandering strolls and lazy Sundays. The neighbourhood has the bonus of being situated right beside the Alster Lake, a delightful place to walk, run or enjoy a variety of water sports, its banks lined with cute cafes — the perfect place to sit and people-watch. Though to best experience the lake, rent a boat and enjoy a scenic ride. Lange Reihe, the heart of St. Georg, is a bustling street lined with quirky boutiques, cozy cafés, and many international restaurants. The best hotels in St George are as vibrant, loud and creative as Hamburg itself. Our pick of the bunch include a glamorous lakeside palace used in a James Bond film, a literary hotel with an extensive library of signed first editions, and a whimsical English-styled retreat, perfect for romance.

For a grand five star

Hotel Atlantic

  • Cinephiles will love Hotel Atlantic. After all, this grand five-star hotel, set on the banks of Lake Alster, appeared in a James Bond film (Tomorrow Never Dies). It's as glitzy and glamorous as a palace, with two restaurants (one Michelin starred), a spa and awesome bar; the rooms are done in classic traditional style. Best of all, it's only minutes away from the Central Railway Station and city centre, making it an obvious luxury choice for a Hamburg city break.

For book-lovers

Hotel Wedina

  • Hotel Wedina is a good place to curl up with a book — a distinctive, cosy four-star hotel near both the train station and Lake Alster, as well as the many bars and bakeries on the Lange Reihe. The boutique rooms are homely, and the library is full of signed first editions by all the authors who give readings nearby. Charming.

For a whimsical romantic break

The George

  • The George is a paean to Britain. It's a chic, colourful hotel overlooking the Alster Lake. Rooms feature statement wallpaper, shabby chic chairs, and English icons in print. It makes for a delightful, if whimsical romantic break. The best rooms have lovely balconies, and along with cocktails on the terrace, Mediterrenean cuisine, and its proximity to the cafes on Lake Alster and the city centre museums, it's a perfect pick for romance.
