I stayed here for four nights for work. I really enjoyed it! It's a very cool and laid back hotel…read morethat caters to all types of people - from families to worker bees like me, to couples and groups of friends. I worked a lot while there, so I used the lobby and dining area as my office. Wifi is fast and reliable. They play good music downstairs, so I enjoyed working down there more than in my room. The rooms are okay sized and nice for one or two people. I was on the fourth floor and had a nice view of the "Hamburg needle." The only disappointment is that the TV's only play German shows with no subtitles. So it's entertaining the first night...but not so enjoyable the rest of the trip. The showers are nice, good power, and the entire property was extremely clean. Staff was nice. They have a 24 hour bar where you can get alcoholic beverages (beer/wine/booze), sodas, waters and juices. They also have some snacks (fruit, bars, microwavable food) if needed. The neighborhood has good budget dining options and is the hotel is a few blocks from the U-Bahn. I really liked the Superbude. I was told this one is in a better neighborhood than the others, which is important for me as a single woman traveling alone.

The worst thing about Mac City is its name. I didn't want to book accommodation; because the name…read morewas sketchy to me. But I got off the Berliner Tor underground train station elevator at street level for something else, and there I saw the words Mac City on the upstairs windows. So I decided to go in and up and see what it was like. There I met Mr Cheng at the consierge desk. He's very nice. He's part owner. The place had a family feel and looked good for handicapped and had a kitchen where some people use the equipment and some bring their own pot, blender and dish etc. I've stayed at Mac City in three different rooms, two stays. I can't say enough about them, except try it yourself if you're looking for low cost accommodations in Hamburg. Of course be aware, as maybe anyone is staying in such a reasonable place. I do definitely recommend this establishment, for youths, workers, families, students and anyone else who wants easy transportation, easy access to shopping etc. They have parking behind the building too, with an entrance directly into their building (of course there's a fee to park but this is a major city so you're very lucky to be able to park by your place). A couple of their rooms also have a mini-fridge, so see if that's available, if you don't want to come out of the room to eat or you need to chill medication or your jar of bee pollen etc. The mattresses are nice, as are the pillows and quilts, the bedsheets are crisp and clean (and don't smell like detergent nor any other smell), radiators not a speck of dust, clean thick dark curtains in the rooms' windows, windows open nicely for the breeze and don't you even think of smoking! As they will charge you a 200,00EUR fine for one puff! I like that. I like places that smell deeply clean. And if you want to keep something super safe, everyone gets there own keyed locker to use, return the key the day you check out. Sorry no pics, as i'm writing from the room, using my laptop. The only cam I have with me is a little difficult (I'm used to and miss my mobile phone). Maybe i'll buy another at Media Markt Hamburg, it's nearby and sells you what you need, you can even use your PayPal card.

The male bathroom looks like a swimming pool. Clearly the hostel staff doesn't even bother caring…read moreabout it. Also, I've been to a number of hostels in Europe through the past 6 years, and this was the only one that allowed me to tell you this litte story: we left our Go Pro batteries charging during an afternoon, and we left the hostel to go on the city tours and attractions we planned to go. Hostel staff came to clean the room, and removed the charger from the plug! So, when we've arrived back, the charger was out of the plug, and the batteries were not sufficiently charged at all. This was simply ridiculous coming from the hostel staff. If this is the kind of measure they take to save money, I'm pretty sure this already tells any of you about what to expect from the rest of this low end hostel.

So the food is good, expensive for Hamburg, but well presented and a carefully selected menu. Great…read moretiger prawns. The bewildering thing is that whilst the waiters, maitre d' and the menu all seem Italian, the food seems remarkably French - lots of jus and reduction, not so much of the fresh flavour. If someone knows the chef, say bonjour from me. Very stylish, and seems to hit it off with the well-heeled of Eppendorf. Really good wine list, including a great Sardinian white (can't remember the name). To go to the toilet you have to voyage far into the centre of the earth, and may well miss coffee navigating back. I'd go back.

Fashion shootings, and flashy magazine articles rely heavily on the scenery here. Concrete floors in the public areas, inspirational lighting and colors. The only draw back.

Walking through the main entrance at Christmas time, the archway is clad is gorgeous purple flowers that is regal. Even in the rainy winter days of Hamburg winter, this is a bright spot. We only stopped in for the gluhwein but the offerings here stand out. Hot buttered rum - 10 out of 10! The "gluhwein " here is a Bavarian version and again - they knocked it out of the park. The garden area is intimate and dressed for Christmas and a quite little escape from all the Christmas markets and shopping around this incredible city.

It has a great and friendly atmosphere were you'll feel at home immediately. The rooms are simple but colorful, choose from a dozend colors during check-in. They are quiet because of the thick walls and doors but get a little warm in the summer due to the lack of a/c. Breakfast (7 EUR) is also great, you'll get a great choice, good coffee and the buffet is refilled constantly. Two computers provide free internet access, free WiFi is available, too. They also rent bikes to their guests (4 EUR a day) which is a good choice as Hamburg has many bikeways throughout the city. The staff is always friendly and helpful.
