Stayed at the Sofitel during a recent 2 day business trip to Hamburg. Hotel has excellent Covid procedures beginning with the check in and the possibility to order the breakfast in your room or downstairs in the restaurant, where social distancing is strictly enforced. Room was very comfortable and had all of the usual Sofitel touches such as a Nespresso machine and kettle in the room, even during Covid restrictions, which is a nice touch. Breakfast was excellent and served directly to the table as the usual buffet concept is currently forbidden. We managed to hire a conference room on the first floor for a business meeting which was also very helpful in these challenging times. Highly recommended and hope to be back again soon!

Stayed there for a long weekend in October. Good Covid safety concept. The room is Sofitel standard with a comfortable bed. The marble bathroom adds a nice touch. Good breakfast selection. Check-in in the evening could have been quicker.

The rooms are really nice and the location of the hotel is perfect to get around in Hamburg. Unfortunately the SPA was closed. This was one of the main reasons we choose this hotel. We where told that it was on their website but I did not see that when I booked. Maybe they should make it more clear......

Dear holm37, Thank you so much for your positive review as well as your feedback regarding the Spa closure. Due to the restrictions of the Hamburge Senate we are not allowed to open our Seagull Spa. A transparent communication is very important to us. That is why we are communicating this information on all our booking platforms, including our main booking website ALL. Apart from that, we are so happy to hear that you had a lovely stay in our centrally located hotel. Our team does whatever it takes to guarantee you a perfect stay with us, so we are more than happy to hear that we could contribute to an overall positive stay with us. We hope we can welcome you again very soon in our hotel. Best regards Your Sofitel Hamburg Alter Wall Team

This is not our first time in this hotel. Our room was basically okay, but with too much furniture. The desk blocked access to the small balcony. The breakfast concept, during the current CORONA situation, I would not rate it at a 5 * level. The display of the various dishes was simple and not stimulating. We have stayed in different hotels during this extraordinary time and I think an a la carte service would be better for the overall standard of this SOFITEL Hotel. The hallway to our room had a not very pleasant smell (somehow a combination of air conditioning, humidity and carpet). We know that differently from the SOFITEL in Munich, for example. So it was really just an average stay for us and not exceptional.
