B&B Hotel Hamburg City-Ost is a 3-star hotel from the B&B Hotels chain, on Anckelmannstraße. It offers air-conditioned rooms, a bar and breakfast. It is practical for short stays if you do not mind being a little way from the historic centre.
Location and getting around
It is east of Hamburg Hauptbahnhof (main station), about a 25-minute walk from it. The Rathaus (City Hall) and the Binnenalster are about 40 minutes on foot.
The Speicherstadt is 2.8 km away and the Elbphilharmonie 3.2 km. For those journeys, public transport or a taxi is better.
Rooms and facilities
The rooms have air conditioning, a private bathroom, a wardrobe and a desk. Wi-Fi is free throughout the building.
- Buffet or continental breakfast.
- A bar on the common floor.
- Private parking for an extra charge, according to the hotel.
You can see other options in the city on the page for hotels in Hamburg.
Who it suits
- You want a functional room to sleep in and set off early.
- You travel by car and want to park at the hotel.
- You value sleeping with air conditioning in summer.
- You are travelling alone and the basics, done well, are enough.
Good to know
The room is available from 15:00 and you must leave it before 12:00. The name of the chain can be misleading: this is not a guesthouse, but a hotel with a reception.
The harbour piers and the Reeperbahn are too far to walk (3.9 and 4.5 km): plan those journeys on public transport and keep walking for the Alster area.
