Really clean room with largest towels, mini fridge in room. Delicious and wide variety breakfast buffet style, so worth the price!

We stayed 3 night in the hotel, very clean and fresh, very good bathroom and beds.
We stayed at Novotel Hamburg Alster for one night while driving from Italy to Sweden, and it was a great stopover. The hotel is nice, nothing overly fancy, but it has everything you need for a comfortable stay.
A special highlight was the free ice cream at check-in, which the kids really appreciated! The hotel was easy to find, and having a parking garage was a big advantage. It’s also conveniently located close to the U-Bahn, making it easy to get around Hamburg.
Breakfast was quite crowded around 9 a.m. in July, but the staff handled the situation very well and kept everything organized.
Overall, a comfortable, well-located hotel with friendly service.
Overall pretty good stay at the hotel, though the shampoo/body wash offered seems a bit lack luster. Also having a menu for the breakfast would be helpful, as asking the greeter at the dinning area with "what options are available, what do you serve, and 2-3 other forums of the same question yielded little results.
This hotel was a mixed bag. First, the bad: unreliable/inconsistent wifi, mediocre room that had no desk or work space and very little room for 2 adults and 2 kids. It didn't have a fridge and there was barely any horizontal area in the bathroom to even set clothes down while showering. Lights require a room key to operate which was annoying, the kids hated the sofa bed, and the location is LOUD with nights full of screaming police sirens because it is on the corner of two busy streets and it is relatively close to central station (the epicenter of drugs and addicts in Hamburg). All was not terrible though: the staff was great, the property is well-kept and nice, and the breakfast was fantastic. Even though it is near central station, it seemed like a nice area that felt safe (if busy).
Hotel was very nice. Location was good a bit further away from shops and restaurants but walkable. Breakfast was great with lots of options. The staff were nice.
First class in all departments. Great location. Easy access from airport and central station. Quiet location. Just far enough out of centre to be away from city centre riff-raff. Spacious room. Great staff. Look forward to staying again.
