About

Experience directly why Hamburg is called 'The Gateway to the World'!
Situated in the city centre and directly opposite to the extensive and famous harbor, our Youth Hostel is well placed for visiting Hamburg's traditional Fish Market (since 1703), galleries and shops - as well as enjoying the vibrant nightlife and seafarer romantic - the way it was once celebrated in the songs of the German crooner Hans Albers - at the famous 'Reeperbahn' and the neighbouring 'Schanzenviertel', a place of pulsing scene life.
Our Youth Hostel offers capacity for 357 people and facilities include TV, laundry, kitchen and meal services. From the terrace of our hostel, guests enjoy a fabulous view of the harbor.

Decent hostel, had all I needed. Not much atmosphere in the evening, but good breakfast in the morning. Little bit far from the city centre, staff were friendly.

Good location and clean but definitely don’t make the same mistake that we did, they mean it when they say youth hostel! We don’t speak German and didn’t realize what the name of this hostel translated to. We were looking for a fun and social hostel experience and this was definitely not the place to find that as girls in our twenties. The breakfast is included but not great. They also didn’t have handsoap in our room.
