ibis budget Hamburg St Pauli Messe - neu renoviert

I loved this hotel because it was great value, clean, and very convenient. Staff was outstanding! I am so sorry to have forgotten the lady's name who helped us and a lovely gentleman, Mr.Ayteuiz. They went above and beyond when we arrived with 14 bags (moving to Italy) and disembarked in Hamburg from the Queen Mary 2. They stored our bags for the day in their office until our room was ready later in the afternoon. Wonderful helpful staff also when we needed to print something. There is a huge park very close to this hotel which was fabulous for our two mini schnauzers. A very good locations and very good value and a comfortable night sleep!

Location was great, near transport links and bars etc, but itself on a relatively quiet and safe feeling street. Room was adequate for 3 fellas using it to freshen up and sleep in for a few nights.

The staff at reception were always nice and helpful. One of them made a drawing on the map where I should go; I did and it was superb. I liked the location, which was parallel to Reeperbahn. One could walk to the harbour as well as to Jungfernstieg and see and experience many interesting buildings on the way. I preferred to have breakfast round the corner on Reeperbahn, or at the ‘Kietz Bäcker’ in Silbersackstraße, for which you have to cross Reeperbahn, turn right, walk a stretch, then turn left. Often there is a cue. If you like to have breakfast before going out, the Hotel breakfast is sufficient, although not great. If you are in to really good food then there is Fischereihafen Restaurant. A nice way to get there is by ferry, get off Dockland and just walk strait on. It is the big building on your left.

The personnel were very friendly. Someone from reception even spoke to me in Bulgarian (my mother's language), which made me feel very pleased. Although Booking stated that check-in would be after 14:00, I arrived around 10 and my room was ready by 11, which was a pleasant surprise. LOCKERS AVAILABLE - I put my luggage in a locker while my room was getting ready which gave me flexibility to move. My room was clean and had a view of the backyard. The hotel is very close to the U3 subway line, just a 3-minute walk (yellow line), and it's near the Hamburg harbor walking distance. You can have a longer walk to the center or take the subway. Overall, it's a good place to stay for 2 nights. I was there during the week, but if I had been there over the weekend, I probably would have chosen a different district. ;)

Normal hotel, clean and tidy. The room is small, you can barely walk around the bed, but it's a budget hotel so you can't expect much. Good location close to the Reeperbahn, but not on a noisy street, also close enough to the central part of the city. Good and inexpensive parking.
