I lived in Hamburg for a few months in 2006 and so I was keen to take my family there for a weekend when the Christmas market was there. After looking at various hotels we decided to stay in the Best Western St Raphael.
Location:
The hotel is only a few minutes away from the main train station (and U-bahn stops - Hauptbahnhof Nord and Hauptbahnhof Sued) and also the bus station so if you fly into Luebeck then you're only a few minutes from your bus to or from the airport which is especially handy as the flights often arrive or depart early or late at night.
The Alster and town centre are only a walk away too!
Rooms:
The rooms vary in terms of style and size. We booked two rooms and one seemed to have been decorated by a local artist. We were very impressed by the rooms, even down to the radio in the bathroom!
Facilities:
We used the buffet breakfast which was about 12euros each I think which seems pricey but there was a good variety of cereals, cold meats, rolls, hot food, beverages etc. Staff were all very attentive and helpful and the atmosphere was very nice and a restful start to the day.
Staff:
Everyone we came into contact with was incredibly helpful and a lot spoke English which in Hamburg seems to be relatively unusual. Although people say that everyone will be able to speak English, that doesn't seem to apply in Hamburg and a basic understanding of German can be unbelievably helpful, but there weren't any problems in the Best Western St Raphael.
