Hotel Mercedes Hamburg

Central location quite close to the railway station and also the centre of Hamburg.

The hotel is lies in S.t George and at a length of 400 mtrs there were at least 5 pornographic shops and other likewise strip clubs and so on.

It is good that the hotel offers a parkingopportunity near by - for a relatively small amount per day.

The breakfast was ok - but not more than ok. We got the impression that some of the food and dishes were put directly back onto the buffet-table after it had been on the smaller tables (breadrolls, eggcups)!

Small hotel with a good location, nice breakfast & helpful staff.

Beware there is no lift from ground to first floor. Rooms a little dated but clean.

Cost

The saying goes that "you get what you pay for". This often implies that if you pay little for something it is of sub standard. In the case of this Hotel paying little simply means you get the basics. So if a basic, clean room with a basic breakfast in a convenient part of town for a basic price is what you are looking for the I would recomend the hotel Mercedes. Personally I wont be returning to the hotel however, largely becasue I wont be returning to Hamburg. If you are thinking of a city break with the family this is probably neither the city nor the hotel for you. Hamburg is very seedy. there are maybe a couple of areas that arent overrun with prostitution, drinking and drugs but not enough to warrent a holiday.
