Hotel Baseler Hof is located very centrally (right next to the beautiful Alsterbecken, can't get any more central in Hamburg). Yet, the place is quiet and has lots of (Swiss-style) character. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We were actually surprised by the quality of our rooms - very clean, practical (plenty of power outlets, safe, storage spaces, lights, lockable drawer), stylish and comfortable. The price was very competitive for the area. One great perk: every guest gets a free three day transit pass for the city. The hop on hop off buses, if you're into such things, leave literally in front of the main entrance. Almost everything else in the city can be reached on foot. We would definitely stay here again. read more
