Abdoel R. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

The location is convenient because of the public transport nearby. For families with small kids this is a plus in my opinion. The staff was really friendly and helpfull too. The lady (forgot her name) gave us some good tips for food and things to for small kids. There is also a small area in front off the reception for kids to play. There is a gaming console and building toys. The only two things that I think off to give as feedback are the noises in the room. I could hear the traffic.The other thing was a smell in our room upon arrival. It smelled musty. When you put on the aircondition and come back in a hour or so, the smell is gone.

Dear Abdoel R., thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback and for rating your stay with 70 out of 100 points. We are delighted to hear that you appreciated our convenient location with excellent public transport connections, particularly as a family travelling with young children. It is also wonderful to hear your kind words about our friendly and helpful team. We will be happy to share your compliments with our colleague who gave you recommendations for family-friendly activities and restaurants. We are also pleased that your children enjoyed our small play area with the games console and building toys. At the same time, we are sorry about the two issues you experienced in your room. We understand that traffic noise can be disturbing, especially when travelling with children. For a future stay, please feel free to request a room towards the quieter rear side of the hotel. We will be happy to accommodate this request whenever possible, subject to availability. We also apologize for the slightly musty smell you noticed upon arrival. We are glad that it disappeared after you switched on the air conditioning, but of course your room should have been fresh and pleasant from the moment you entered. We will share this feedback with our housekeeping and technical teams so that the cause can be checked. Thank you again for your constructive feedback. We hope to welcome you and your family back to Hamburg and provide you with an even more comfortable stay next time. best regards Nadine Hoffmann People & Culture Manager

Julian M. Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL

I had a very pleasant three-night stay at Novotel Hamburg Alster. I was in Hamburg for a workout weekend with activities at several locations, and the hotel was a great base thanks to the easy U-Bahn and S-Bahn connections and its proximity to the city centre. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, breakfast was excellent, and the clean wellness area was a really nice bonus after a day of training. There were a couple of things that could be improved. The corridors can be quite noisy, and I could clearly hear doors slamming from my room. Housekeeping could also be a little more attentive: I found a small metal razor-blade holder from a previous guest on the coffee table, which had apparently been mistaken for an accessory. Overall, though, a good experience. I would happily stay here again.

Dear Julian M., thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback with us. We are delighted to hear that you had a pleasant three-night stay and that our convenient location, welcoming team, excellent breakfast and wellness area contributed to a positive experience. It is great to know that our hotel was a good base for your activities throughout Hamburg, and we are especially pleased that you would happily stay with us again. At the same time, we sincerely apologize for the issues you experienced. We are particularly sorry that you found a razor-blade holder from a previous guest in your room. This should of course have been noticed during the cleaning and final inspection of the room. We will address this with our housekeeping team to ensure that such details receive the necessary attention. We also understand your comments regarding the noise from doors closing in the corridors. We have forwarded this matter to our technical team, who will look into the doors as soon as possible and check what can be done to reduce the noise. Thank you again for your constructive feedback and for your kind words about our team. We very much look forward to welcoming you back to Novotel Hamburg City Alster on your next visit. best regards Nadine Hoffmann People & Culture Managerin

Great location and services overall.

Dear Diego r., thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback with us. We are very sorry to hear that your arrival at 7:30 AM did not feel as welcoming as it should have. Even though your room was understandably not yet ready at that time, you should of course have been greeted in a friendly and attentive manner. We sincerely apologize if our colleague made you feel as though you were a nuisance or that your early arrival was an inconvenience. This is certainly not the impression we want to leave with our guests. We are pleased, however, that your experience was much more positive when you returned in the afternoon. Thank you especially for highlighting the friendliness and warm welcome of our colleague who handed you your room key. We will be happy to share your kind words with the team – even without knowing her name, we will hopefully be able to identify her. We greatly appreciate your honest feedback, as it reminds us that every interaction, even a brief one at an early hour, can have a significant impact on a guest's overall experience. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again and providing you with a consistently warm and friendly experience from the very beginning of your stay. Kind regards, Nadine Hoffmann People & Culture Manager

Familie T. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

While the hotel is clean and follows Accor Novotel standards across Europe, the staff is most unfriendliest across other the continent. They do not smile, look like any one asking a question is offending them personally. There is no fridge in room, coffee & tea sachets are not refilled ever, and of course asking the staff for a creamer sachet only leads to me feeling like I asked for a golden egg, even after paying more than 1000€ for the stay! Also many many guests wondered where they can refill their glass water bottles. Other Novotels provide a water dispenser on every floor. Also no body lotion in rooms, and no, asking such unfriendly staff is not an option: too scared of being insulted again.

Dear Familie T., thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are pleased to hear that you found our hotel clean and that you recognized the Novotel standards you are familiar with from your stays across Europe. At the same time, we are genuinely sorry to read about your experience with our team. Feeling uncomfortable when approaching our staff is certainly not acceptable and is not the atmosphere we want to create. A friendly smile, helpful attitude and respectful communication should be a given, regardless of the request. We will take your comments very seriously and discuss them internally with our team. We also appreciate your detailed comments regarding the room amenities. Refrigerators are currently available only in selected room categories. If this is important to you, please feel free to mention it when making a future reservation and we will be happy to advise you on the appropriate category, subject to availability. Regarding the coffee, tea and other amenities, we are sorry that these were not replenished as expected. We will review this with our housekeeping team. We also understand your point regarding drinking water and the availability of refill stations. Your feedback is valuable as we consider how we can make this more convenient for our guests. We regret that you felt unable to approach our team during your stay. This is perhaps the most important point raised in your review, and we sincerely apologize for giving you that impression. Thank you again for your honest feedback. We hope that, should you choose to stay with us again, we will have the opportunity to provide you with the warm and attentive service you should expect from a Novotel. Kind regards, Nadine Hoffmann People & Culture Managerin

Eugen L. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We were generally satisfied with our stay at Novotel Hamburg. However, the room has a few downsides. The soundproofing is poor; when nearby room doors close automatically, the slam is very loud and vibrates through the walls and bed. Also, there was no mini-fridge in the room (unlike Novotel Berlin). Lastly, the lighting controls are poorly designed—it is almost an "all or nothing" system, making it hard to adjust the brightness.

Dear Eugen L., thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed feedback and for rating your stay with 70 out of 100 points. We are pleased to hear that you were satisfied with your stay overall and appreciated our convenient location. At the same time, we are sorry that some aspects of the room did not meet your expectations. We particularly regret the noise caused by the automatic closing of neighboring room doors. We understand how disruptive this can be, especially at night, and will take your comments into consideration. Regarding the missing minibar/refrigerator, please note that these are now available only in selected room categories. If this is important to you, please feel free to mention it when making your next reservation and we will be happy to recommend a suitable category, subject to availability. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the room lighting. We understand that flexible lighting is important for creating a comfortable atmosphere and will share your comments internally. Thank you again for your constructive feedback. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide you with an even more comfortable stay next time. best regards Nadine Hoffmann People & Culture Manager

Jakob B. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Nice stay with our 2 children 8 and 13. Very friendly staff. Our kids got a free ice cream from reception. Parked in the hotel basement and paid for two days. On departure we wanted to see more of Hamburg, and we could leave the car in basement for free. Breakfast restaurant was very busy, but they quickly found a table for us. Disadvantage: I hate the door to toilet is not completely tight

Dear Jakob B., Thank you for your kind feedback regarding your recent stay with us. We are pleased to hear that you and your children enjoyed your time at our hotel and appreciated the friendly service provided by our staff. It is wonderful to know that the complimentary ice cream was a hit with your kids and that our parking policy met your needs during your visit to Hamburg.

The staff was friendly and the hotel was okay, but the bed was bad and the room was a bit bleak for a 4-star hotel. Overall, a pretty mediocre experience.

Sussi N. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Nice hotel, well located near the city center. Breakfast buffet was a bit chaotic and always a long wait by the pancakes, but a good buffet. There’s a minibar in the room, but you can not use it if you have a standard room, as they cannot turn it on.

Dear Guest, Thank you for your kind words regarding our location and breakfast offerings. We appreciate your feedback about the breakfast experience and will take it into consideration for future improvements. Regarding the minibar, it is true that standard rooms have certain limitations; however, we hope that this did not detract from your overall stay. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. Best regards, Kholdoun Rejeb Front Office Manager
