The bed, i had to climb into it, but i guess that's normal when you book a room in a old ship, so its not really fair to complain about it :)

Very nice shower, after a week on a cruise most welcoming, very good location, 1m walk to the metro. Very friendly staff and nice breakfast

Stayed in April 2024

Water in the shower difficult to fix between cold and hot

Very original. Very good food onboard for dinner and breakfast. Well located to visit old Hamburg and museum

Stayed in November 2023

Nice and helpful staff. Very good location.

Well, it was a bit warm because you cannot open bulleye windows on a ship -- there was a fan though in the room.

Breakfast was plenty of food - nice view onto the harbon

Stayed in August 2023

Very small space. Expected the room to be small but this was so small there was really not enough space for 2 people to move around without one having to either sit on a bed or go outside. A bit claustrophobic as you are not able to open the portholes. Great if you like ships in original format. Not everyone's cup of tea.

Location. Friendly staff.

You sacrifice some luxury for nautical charm; the cabin was a little cramped. Climbing in and out of the bunk beds wouldn't be for everybody.

Great location on the harbour between the Elbphilhamonie and the Reeperbahn. Good food. Great breakfast.

Not much, but you have to be ready for the fact that it's a converted light ship! I travelled to Hamburg for the Ironman. It was a bit of a squeeze in the cabin with my bike box but we managed fine.

Amazing location, friendly staff and atmosphere, great food and drink, lots of fun staying on the ship.

tiny and uncomfortable rooms

good location, clean

Stayed in May 2023

The bed and room are cramped.

Location, right in the tourist spots. Elbphilharmonie is just beside the hotel. It's also a new experience for me to stay over the ship.

tiny, cozy ship cabins - if you're a tall guy like me you'll be a little uncomfortable. If you're "american size" you'll probably won't even fit through the door, so take that into account

Great ambience, great staff. Really cute old ship. Old timey maritime vibe

I’m quite short so I was fine with the small single bed. If your height is over 170 cm you may not find the bed comfortable.

The location and it was fun experience to stay in a boat hotel. I liked the breakfast (juice, coffee, boiled egg, some fruits, cheese and bread).

Stayed in December 2022

Not the best night's sleep in the bunk but still glad I stayed. Bit worn in places but mostly just adds to the charm / experience.

Great experience. Unique and with a sense of history. Barman was first class. All staff were friendly, helpful and happy to chat.

Stayed in November 2022

The room was a little bit noisy including a repetitive high pitched beeping sound (like from a distant smoke alarm that needs a battery replacing or something) but I slightly expected some noises due to the location. I used the earplugs they provided (nice touch) and listened to a podcast and then I couldn't hear the noises and I slept very well.

Amazing location for the Elbphilharmonie and for exploring the harbour. Friendly staff. Room was more spacious than I expected. All very clean and charming. Single bed was small but comfortable. Breakfast was nice but nothing super exciting : bread rolls, ham, cheese, boiled egg, orange juice and a little salad. Having read some other reviews I was worried the room might be too warm but it was about right (although it was November!!!). Great shower water pressure. They let me leave my bag after I checked out and come back for it later.

Single room very small which was OK for me, but a tall person would struggle to fit in the built in bed. Shower also very small, but still OK. Biggest issue is the noise when they have live music - it conducts through the steel hull of the ship so there is no way to minimise it. Even with ear plus and a noise cancelling headset you could still feel the beat. But they don't have music every night.

Unique experience staying on a converted ship that is loaded with charm. Staff were super friendly. Location is very good for exploring by foot. Breakfast set in nice. Waking up to see the water through the porthole is very cool.

Good value for money. Nice, cosy rooms. Friendly staff.

During the day, there is a lot of noise from the restaurant, so if you like to have a 'siesta', use the supplied earplugs!. Fortunately, it is very quiet at night. The bunk beds are surprisingly comfortable, but they are very high off the ground and you need to be reasonably fit to climb on and off. They would be no good if you are quite overweight and have mobility problems. The rooms are small and in the tiny bathroom, there are many opportunities to bang your head! I enjoyed the unusual setting, but I wouldn't recommend it for more than a couple of nights.

This is a quirky, very unusual hotel in a great location. My room was a ship's cabin and I felt like an Edwardian explorer, about to begin a voyage. The ship also has a very good bar and restaurant that serves delicious food. If you find bland chain hotels depressing, this is the perfect antidote!

Laundromate in machine room made a ‘finished’-signal at 3.30 in the morning. It continued until next day, when I personally went down there to switch it off. In general the place is noisy.

Stayed in September 2021

I couldn’t enter because the gate was closed. I called 10 times but no one answered.

Looks beautiful on harbor.

Stayed in March 2024

The heat was unbearable. Due to safety the portholes are welded shut and there is no a/c. The small fan did not help as it only circulated the 36 degrees hot air.

Lovely old ship, located very central in Hamburg habor. The cabins are small and have a genuine feel of being "at sea". Might visit again in winter time, when cabins hopefully are cooler.

Stayed in September 2023

Staff were very friendly & helpful...can't beat the location...loved the pub & restaurant...

Stayed in August 2023

Great experience, excellent location and super nice staff! I will definitely recommend it if you want to stay in the area and want to change of the usual accommodation.

Stayed in August 2023

Loud music being played in the restaurant above the room until 1am!! ..and then loud banging music started again at 7:15am, ridiculous!!!

Nothing

Stayed in June 2023

one of the otel personel was so rude. while i was trying to reach the reception he started to shout at me in German. Despite the i told him not to know german he continue to shout at me and pushed me from my shoulder. If you don’t want to be beahaved like that never go there. I wont.

Location was amazing.

Stayed in April 2023

Nothing. it was fabulous.

Very quirky with fabulous staff. The food was great and the bar is fun. Anyone staying here has to accept that this was originally a light ship so don’t expect perfection instead be happy that there are places on the planet like this that you can stay in.
