We stayed in the newly renovated annex building behind the awesome main historic building, but still with a lovely view onto the river Elbe, but also much quieter than in the front row. There were five dedicated areas: 1) Entry room with access onto the terrace, with a bed sofa, fridge, storage space 2) main bedroom with large windows and a very comfortable bed 3) an integrated but still separate corner room used as living space, very nicely furnished 4) a bathroom of good size and 5) a quite large terrace with chairs and a table. Additional, nomen es omen, Strandhotel means Beach Hotel in German - there is a lovely deck on the hotel premises overlooking the nearby beach.

There is litte to say here. I would have loved to have a coffee machine in the room, e.g. Nespresso style, but also a bottle of mineral water.

Everything was great !! The location was perfect, by the Elbe. The view from the window on the river with the cargo ships was a dream !! The staff was also very welcoming, friendly and helpful !! A tip top place to stay !! Nice walk as well in the beautiful Treppenviertel. Will definitely come again next time I am in Hamburg !

Great stay at the Strandhotel Blankenese! The concierge was amazing, the room was beautiful and cozy. Plus, we enjoyed a great breakfast in the morning. I would definitely recommend this hotel - an elegant, yet cozy experience in a superb location by the sea.

- Extremely friendly staff - WiFi sufficient for streaming and calls - Spacious, modern room - Extremely clean - Fantastic location in quiet area by the river - Received a small chocolate as welcome gift and free room upgrade

Very stylish Interior and friendly staff.

It would have been great to know beforehand that no staff will be at the property after 15.00 o Clock and until the whole next day because of Christmas. Which is fine, when knowing in advance. Locked keycards and passcodes aren’t that easy for elderly people and so there was help required. Also the room was very cold although the heating was on. Maybe because it is an old building the thermal insultation wasn’t that great …

The staff are incredibly helpful.

Very small room. Not as clean as I would have liked (under the bed in room 14 was extremely dirty).

Beautiful location where you can watch big container vessels and cruise ships go in and out of the harbour. It's right by the river.

Where to start.... When we checked in we were told that as default rooms are being cleaned every other day. We stayed two nights, so the only standard cleaning would have been on the day of our departure. Our room got cleaned after the first night, the room of our friends didn't. A broken shower didn't fixed. The mini bars were all empty, which is especially annoying if the staff leaves the hotel at 9pm which means no more bar service either. No information whatsoever on wifi code, breakfast hours, public transportation etc on check-in. We asked for wifi details on day 2 and got a code that didn't work. So back to the front desk, where the guy in charge first replied 'Well it works on my phone' before he tried it himself on our phone and learned that it did NOT work. He promised to take care of it and come back to us. Never saw him again. The list goes on, but I guess you get the picture by now.
