Courtyard Airport Hotel, Hamburg

Advantages: Great location and friendly welcome
Disadvantages: None

...The Renaissance Hamburg Hotel is part of the worldwide Marriott chain and offers the excellent accommodations that you would expect from Marriott but with the flair that you would normally expect from the Renaissance team.

...~~~HAMBURG MARRIOTT HOTEL~~~ As well as having stayed at the Renaissance Hotel in Hamburg several times, I have also stayed at the Renaissance sister hotel, the Marriott, located on ABC Strasse in the exclusive shopping and dining part of the city of Hamburg.

...flights are available from Manchester to Hamburg with Lufthansa and British Midland at a cost of approx £150. Flights are also available from Birmingham and I know that there are many direct flights each day from London with British Airways and Lufthansa (the national German airline). In November 2004 Air Berlin will launch daily services between Manchester and Hamburg for only 39Euros one way; a new bargain airline that is too cheap to miss! Another great way is to sail between the UK and Hamburg on an overnight cruise and arrive along the river Elbe in Hamburg to true pomp and circumstances including marching bands and confetti! A taxi from the airport to the city centre will cost approx 20Euros and the journey takes approx 20 minutes (30 in rush hour). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Where to stay? Hamburg offers a wide range...
