Hotel Louis C. Jacob Review

Would-be Hanseats frequent this small yet luxurious hotel nestled amid the older wharf dwellings along the banks of the Elbe. Far from the hustle and bustle of the city, the intimate Louis C. Jacob was named after a grandson of the man who founded the hotel in 1791. Artist Max Liebermann stayed here and painted the terrace with its linden trees. One of the classically furnished suites even bears his name. From a river-view room you'll be able to watch passing ships and listen as their foghorns bid Hamburg farewell. Curious diners can eat at the Kitchen Table at Jacobs Restaurant to watch Michelin-star chef Thomas Martin orchestrate meals. After a day of sightseeing, you can enjoy afternoon sherry in the main hall.
