Meeting rooms range from small boardrooms to combined space for up to 200 people. Luggage storage, laundry and room service are listed. Parking is at Hamburg Airport immediately in front of the hotel entrance, about a one-minute walk; rates are the airport’s, not the hotel’s.
Location and Transportation
The covered footbridge is why this hotel is the default HAM stay. Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 share the Airport Plaza, so both check-in halls are a short indoor walk once you cross from the hotel. The S-Bahn station Hamburg Airport (Flughafen) is on the arrivals level; S1 trains run about every 10 minutes and take about 25 minutes to Hamburg Hauptbahnhof. See the airport to city guide for tickets and taxis.
For a few hours of rest rather than a full night, read the day rooms and layover guide. Overnight in the terminal is a poor substitute for this hotel; see sleeping in Hamburg Airport.
Nearby Alternatives
Courtyard by Marriott Hamburg Airport is about 600 m away if you want a complimentary shuttle on request, an indoor pool and more of a country-house feel. Motel One Hamburg Airport is the design-led mid-price walk along Alsterkrugchaussee. B&B Hotel Hamburg-Airport is the cheaper option on the same road, about 1.2 km from the terminals.
